On the Ideal Rental Property post it was stated that ensuites are expected these days.

Can anyone explain why you would want a toilet in your bedroom?

I notice in most prisons this seems to be the rule but why would you voluntarily want one?

This seems to me to be a most unsavoury prospect not to say probably unhygenic.

Listening to your partner doing what comes
naturally during the night is not top of my priority list.

Chris investment properties are for what most renters want rather than for personal preference.

The main advantage of an en suite is when you have guests or children and more than one person can use a bathroom in the morning!!

Wouldn't that be achieved with a toilet in a laundry already a wet area with a sink already installed for hand washing?

Hi,

Ensuites are an unfortunate 'must have' for tenants in some areas. I put the ensuite on the other side of the the walk in robe (walk through robe), this solves the acoustic issue (two doors)but not the aromatic one. A fan either mechanical or electrical fixes the latter.

I agree with Chris.

Everything will get mouldy as well.
The fan has to work all the time, suck the air out, sort of speak.

Could be a problem if the toilet it self is in the middle of the building, squeezed between floors and other walls of other rooms and has no where to put the actual fan unless you are going to blow it into someone else’s apartment above you.

Talking about those compounds (multi dwelling developments behind big brick wall) mentioned earlier - I was at Newington as well Liberty Grove developments Sydney and could not find where the actual exhaust from the kitchen fan goes to.
Believe me I've checked everything. I did open all doors on the kitchen, even stood on bench it self and walked outside of the building - no, no luck, could not find it anywhere.
The hood is installed, the fan is installed and working, lights are working, but no hall in the wall for the exhaust fan.

How much was for those units/houses then, I cannot remember - about $400K ?

My parents in law just build architect design new multilevel house for them selves (double brick, all latest appliances, etc.) and you can see exactly where the toilet fan is and where the kitchen fan exhaust goes to...and toilet is not in the bedroom that’s for sure.

Chances are they are recycling ones. The range hood sends air thou a
filter and out the front again. The filter (read big block of foam)
needs to be replaced every 1-2 years.

That's what I have in my place anyway
