During: Gutted to the studs - which were very full. The wall on the right is the only continuous wall from the basement to upstairs, so it carries electric, plumbing and sewer. We could just squeak in a small concealed cabinet in the wall on the left side. The window remained, but was trimmed out to match the rest of the house.
After: New walls, lights, tile floor, trim. New dual-flush toilet (press down for a small flush, up for a large one). The sink is mounted to the wall with a tile "beadboard" backsplash for those sloppy, messy kid hands. This small bath feels almost spacious now with the smaller sink and pocket door. We also tried to keep things flush instead of protruding out from the wall.
Remaining to do in this room: Lace curtain at the window, mirror above the sink, and a lovely picture in the frame (which actually conceals a cabinet containing our fine selection of kiddie bandaids).
