Here is the Master Bath… before and after we re-built Moriah.
We tiled the new bathroom in travertine stone, we then sponge painted the walls, and wrapped the tub in heat pipe so that it would always be warm to the touch in the winter.
There is a private view of the stream and the river from these windows. All that’s needed is a candle and some bath salts.
I don’t know what they were thinking when building the original bathroom (those 1970’s were strange times)… clearly they had a great love of natural wood. Perhaps they had fond memories of staying in one of those rustic cabins in a National Park?
But the wood in this bathroom was treasured by me, it is chestnut, which is very attractive and now an extinct species, making this a valuable material. We made use of it elsewhere in the house. I’ll post of an image of that use later today.
