Do you know how long a renovation would take? Maybe you could get away with washing with a wet rag/towel to save building a whole new bathroom. Unless you also just want two bathrooms because that’s neat to have.
Oh. We want another bathroom for completely unrelated reasons. Since we considered this place, we knew that we wanted to renovate to put in a bathroom and some other things. It’s always been a part of the plan.
To be brief: the house purchase was a joint venture by myself and my partner with my brother and his partner. We have two family units under the same roof. I won’t get into all of the reasons we decided to go this way, but needless to say, there’s one shower for essentially two families.
Where the current bathrooms and shower are (we have two bathrooms right now, only one has a shower), they’re in my brother’s “side” of the house. My “side” of the house isn’t even plumbed with water at all.
So the plan is, and always has been, to do renovations at some point to bring water over to that side of the house, and have a bathroom installed for my partner and I. We also want our own kitchen and a couple other small things. There’s space to do it, the garage is far larger than we need, so we’re going to convert part of it over to be the new bathroom space, and there’s a good area in our current “living room” that we want to turn into a type of galley kitchen… More or Less.
So by getting those renovations done first, we would have a second shower and the situation in the house would just kind of reverse. Instead of us going into their part of the house to get a shower, they would come to our side until their shower is finished.

That makes a lot of sense, wish you good luck on the whole process
