sounds like you want to do a flip. is it possible to add a bathroom in the space – somewhere, anywhere?

the second bath would be a big selling point and the cost would most likely be recovered.

make the larger room a library/office/sitting room.

I agree with your husband. the bed should be placed in the room that has a door, there is a privacy issue with using the open loft as a bedroom. that kind of open concept will only appeal to a certain kind of buyer. I think you should use the loft area as the “sitting room” and put the bed behind closed doors. and without a bathroom, you really cant use the word “suite” to describe this area.

I like the idea of making the loft the master suite, but turn the 15×12 room into the closet/dressing area. People do love their closet space these days, and walk in closets are a huge selling point. Include a closet system like this:
With a full length mirror and a vanity set, or at least a vanity stool or chair for putting on shoes.

it sounds like there is no bathroom in your loft, am i right? if not it would be hard to justify it as a master.
