As mentioned above extra bathrooms are always useful, specially if you don’t have one downstairs, plan to have guests and/or kids. Removing a bathroom might also bring the value down, which should not be a deal breaker if you thinking long term or are planning to improve the rest of the place.
FWIW We did similarly sized storage both sides of the chimney and, even though functional, they are always a bit too small for a normal sized adult and require a shared wardrobe somewhere else for winter coats, boots, duvets, etc

We are starting to plan some changes to the new house and I’m canvassing opinions on whether we ditch our en suite and convert it to a walk in wardrobe type thing or keep it.
I don’t really don’t like en suites and our bedroom is right next door to the main bathroom, so I would like to get rid. It means the bedroom would be clear of wardrobes making it feel more spacious too. But my wife thinks we should keep the en suite and have built in wardrobes in the two alcoves either side of the fireplace.
What would you do?
