It makes sense to sketch out floor plans for a whole-house remodel, so why not for the bathroom layout, too? Yet some homeowners skip making bathroom floor plans, perhaps assuming that bathrooms are so simple that physical plans are pointless.
In reality, a tight bathroom layout calls for rigorous planning. For example, a bathtub placed too close to a toilet or sink cabinet without adequate buffering can spell disaster for the small space. Creating bathroom floor plans can help you anticipate these problems and adjust your design prior to any remodeling work taking place.
Here are 15 free bathroom floor plans to help inspire your next project.

64-Square-Foot Bathroom Plan With a Private Toilet
The Spruce / Theresa Chiechi
In a home where the bathroom must be used by more than one person at a time, a walled-in private space for the toilet can greatly improve the space's functionality.

Using a pocket door instead reclaims that space.
Dimensions
- Length: 96 inches
- Width: 96 inches
- Area: 64 square feet
Features
- A long vanity and countertop make a double sink possible.
- The layout includes generous private space for the toilet.

- Length: 96 inches
- Width: 96 inches
- Area: 64 square feet
Features
- A careful layout and a standard 60-inch bathtub allow space for a storage cabinet.

Long, Narrow 50-Square-Foot Bathroom Plan
The Spruce / Theresa Chiechi
A long and narrow bathroom space can be difficult to plan around. One idea is to cap the end of the bathroom with a custom shower. This effectively shortens the length of the room and makes it easier to integrate the remaining features. This bathroom floor plan could work with a door almost anywhere along the open long wall. Ideally, you would want to avoid placing the toilet directly in front of the door unless absolutely necessary.
Dimensions
- Length: 120 inches
- Width: 60 inches
- Area: 50 square feet
Features
- A custom shower at the end maximizes the usage of the room's 5-foot width.
- The shape of the room makes a very long vanity and countertop possible. Two sink basins are easily accommodated. Another option is to have a single sink basin and a very long countertop.
- This layout can be adapted to feature a shorter vanity integrated with a tall linen closet.
