Judging by my unofficial poll, spa tubs are not a "must have" for selling your house.
What about you? Do you have a spa tub? Do you use it?
SPA TUBS ARE A WASTE OF REAL ESTATE.....
ReplyDeleteOurs is coming out in a couple of weeks and will be replaced by extending the shower from wall to wall. A total of 11 feet. No door needed, there will be a 3 foot walk-in space, with the glass wall going 8 feet..the tile floor will flow into the shower area and run all the way to the ceiling.
CAN'T WAIT
Gee Patty, you seem to have a strong opinion about this ;) I can't wait to follow your progress in the new shower. No glass wall sounds ideal! I've always lusted a spa tub--since I don't have one. But, we did replace our bathtub with a walk-in shower. SO much more functional!
ReplyDeleteI do and I don't. :) I'd love to have a really beautiful tub just to look at if I had that luxury (I hate the gigantic one encased in tile that's in our house) but I totally agree they are not a necessity because no one uses them.
ReplyDeleteI swear Brooke, I think if I had one I would use it....maybe I'm dreaming.
DeleteTotally agree with you. Even if I do dream of sitting in a big bubbly tub after a day of painting. I'll take an outdoor hot tub anyday!! Which I also don't have, but want one badly.
ReplyDeleteWow Heather! What a great idea! I have plenty of room for an outdoor hot tub. It might be the solution to my quest for a spa tub.
DeleteMy sister was shocked recently when I began a sentence, "I was just getting out of my bath..." She couldn't believe that anyone over the age of eight takes a BATH these days. I admit I usually take a shower but sometimes a good soak in the tub is necessary for the soul. I only have a regular tub/shower combo so I put duct tape over the overflow intake so I can get the water high enough. I would love a deeper soaking tub--no whirlpools or room for friends necessary--or even a high but small footprint Japanese sitting tub that reheats the water.
ReplyDeleteAdele, I'm with you. I love a long soak in the tub. I will try your duct tape tip. Sometimes I keep a pitcher for microwaved water next to the tub to warm it up. I always run the water than the hot water lasts.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing tthis
