Downstairs bathroom

Hello

We have just completed our extension where we have moved our existing kitchen into the extended part of the house. The original plan was to make our existing galley kitchen into 2 small rooms, utility and shower room (shower, toilet and sink). We have decided to not have the shower so considered keeping the room as 1 and having the utility and toilet/sink altogether. As this room will be directly attached to the kitchen (although toilet on the opposite side of the 4m long room) would this satisfy BR? It's not ideal but also dont want the expense and feeling as though we have 2 tiny rooms if we don't need to. 

Thanks in advance for any advise.

Some years ago the rules changed. Prior to the change there had to be two doors between WC and kitchen. After the change (eg now) you only need one door provided there is a wash basin in the same room as the WC.  So you should be ok if there is a wash basin in there.

 

I believe it will also need an opening window or extractor fan.

Good to know and relevant to one of my ongoing projects,
