Kenmore Bathroom Spa Remodel; Bath Tubs Are Overrated

Making the most of a primary bath without moving walls

This Kenmore primary bathroom lacked the tranquility the homeowners desired. Having partnered with Tenhulzen Residential twice before, they trusted our process. Together, we envisioned a peaceful spa-inspired retreat within the existing footprint.

We removed the bulky tub to reclaim valuable floor space. In its place, we installed a spacious walk-in shower. Additionally, we incorporated a dedicated makeup table for daily comfort. As a result, the layout feels open, intentional, and serene.

Serene Ambiance: Tile and Lighting Selections

To create a spa-like atmosphere, we selected calming and cohesive materials. Water-etched marble tile lines the shower walls with understated elegance. Rather than overwhelm the space, the texture adds quiet luxury. Meanwhile, lighting elevates the experience. We installed under-vanity lighting to produce a soft, floating glow. Consequently, the room now reflects the ambiance of a private retreat.

Practicality Meets Aesthetics: Storage Solutions and Vanity Design

Although serenity guided the vision, functionality remained essential. We designed a floating vanity to enhance openness and improve storage. By lifting the cabinetry off the floor, we increased visual space. In addition, we added open shelving for rolled towels. This feature blends accessibility with intentional design. Every element supports daily routines without clutter.

Budget-Conscious Elegance: Balancing Luxury and Affordability

While the design feels luxurious, we managed the budget strategically. Instead of lighted medicine cabinets, we installed framed mirrors and sconces. This adjustment preserved elegance while reducing costs.

Furthermore, we introduced a pocket door to maximize usable space. We also added cabinetry above the toilet for additional storage. Therefore, the room maintains efficiency without sacrificing style.

A Tranquil Retreat: Final Touches and Overall Atmosphere

Today, the bathroom functions as a peaceful sanctuary. Soft lighting and seamless flooring transitions create visual harmony. Each material and fixture contributes to a cohesive atmosphere. Ultimately, this Kenmore bathroom spa remodel demonstrates the power of intentional design. Without moving walls, we transformed an outdated bath into a refined retreat. The result reflects the homeowners’ vision and Tenhulzen Residential’s craftsmanship.
