5 Freestanding Baths Sure to Impress a Buyer

If you’re building or renovating a home in the hope of selling it on, then the bathroom is up there as one of the most important rooms to think about.

After all, what reaction do you want people to have when they walk into the bathroom? A lukewarm nod of the head, or a look that says ‘Wow, I wasn't expecting this…’?

We know which we’d rather have — but it’s not about earning a seal of approval. This kind of reaction can leave a lasting impression in the viewer’s mind and make the difference between them putting down a deposit and going to look at the next house on their list.

There are many things that can evoke this response — quality wall and floor tiles, matching fittings, a towel rail, a separate shower, a spacious vanity unit, and finally; a freestanding bath.

This is certainly a case of last but not least, because a freestanding bath is simply a no-brainer if the space allows.

Over a lifetime, we spend an average of 2 days and 40 minutes in our bathrooms, and in a recent poll we found that the majority of people would choose a bath over a shower if they could only use one for the rest of their lives.

We’ve therefore put together our top five picks of freestanding baths to give you inspiration for your next project…

1. Lambourn

The Lambourn acrylic bath offers versatility and is a safe bet if you want to appeal to a wide audience. The oval shape also gives the user a more relaxed position.

2. Eton Black Galaxy

While this Eton Black Galaxy bath has a classic feel, the asymmetrical design and speckled black acrylic finish gives it a sleek, understated sense of quality.

3. Charlotte Copper Rock

The Charlotte bath is a real show-stopper — they don’t get much more beautiful than this. The textured copper finish gives it an authentic antique appearance, and would suit a spacious traditional bathroom. It’s also available in black or white.

4. Elsa

This bath is both elegant and substantial, and the simple design gives leeway for either an eclectic mixture of tiles/wallpaper, or a clean, understated finish. It’s cost effective too and available in two sizes!

5. The Mere

If your bathroom has more of a traditional style, then this bath is perfect. The ornate chrome feet add a touch of elegance and the price is very reasonable!
