Downstairs loos ill-advised

A family bathroom downstairs can reduce a home's value by some 6%, a study shows. Keeping the bathroom downstairs can knock off the value of a property by an average £13,580, as buyers prioritise downstairs living space. Some 44% of adults, rising to 57% in London, said a downstairs bathroom would put them off buying a property, according to a Direct Line Home Insurance survey.
