Before, this bathroom had a nauseating effect on all who entered. Now, potential buyers will be impressed by the soothing Zen-like room. New paint, toilet, vanity and rain-style showerhead add to the spa-like atmosphere. The striped, awkwardly placed shower door was replaced with a clear glass partition that makes the room feel more open and airy. Cost breakdown:
shower glass wall $500
bathroom appliances $583
light fixtures $84
fabric $8
plants $183
paint and accessories $639
Total $1,997
