Ideally, you want to add your en-suite directly next to an existing bathroom on the same floor, or above a bathroom on the lower floor. Why? It gets more expensive to add a bathroom if you have to redirect plumbing, especially soil stacks and waste pipes.
Can you put an ensuite anywhere?
If you do want to install an ensuite in tight space, the good news is that it is perfectly possible to do so. As long as water supply access is available, you can even install an ensuite in a tight, small room. You may wish to opt for a shower instead of a bath if there isn't much space available.
How much space do you need for an ensuite?
The answer varies, but generally the minimum space that you'll need for an en-suite that is fitted with a basin, toilet and shower is approximately 0.8m by 1.8m. With this size space, remember that the bathroom door will need to open outwards.
