Who doesn't love a master bedroom? A master bedroom is a sanctuary, offering a larger space for you and maybe a partner to get away from the rest of the house and relax. Even bathroom breaks are not a good enough reason for you to leave your master suite.
But what happens when your parents come to visit? How about if you want to create a self-contained section of the house?
These two situations and more can be the impetus for creating two master bedrooms. Many homeowners have recently contracted the construction of an additional bathroom and walk-in closets to create a second master bedroom in their home. Here, we cover some of the benefits of this choice.

Reasons to Have Two Master Bedrooms:
Difficulties Sleeping
As folks get older, there may be issues with snoring or early morning bathroom visits. Staying in the same bed can prevent your partner from getting the sleep they need. Dual master suites provide comfort, convenience, and privacy.
Different Schedules
A better night's sleep is essential to long-term wellbeing, but many couples work different schedules and struggle to sync up. One person might work nights while the other has the day shift. Teachers, medical professionals, and others have wildly different time constraints. When couples with conflicting schedules have their own private spaces in the form of separate bedrooms, they're able to get enough sleep.
Aging-in-Place
As you get older, there will be a growing need for handrails, support bars, and other measures to prolong your independent living. These considerations can go into the design of the second master bedroom and accompanying bathroom remodeling project, making a safe space for you to move when you are ready.
Marketability
Even if you aren't looking to live in your home as your mobility needs change, having two master suites in your house is a great idea as it will drastically improve your ability to market it to a broader pool of potential buyers.
Practical Benefits of a Second Master Suite:
Visiting Family or Friend
Many folks choose a second master bedroom to accommodate visiting family members or friends who need their own space in the same house.
Less Expensive Than A Guest House
Remodeling a current bedroom into a dual master suite as opposed to adding on a guest house can end up saving you up to 25% of what you would have paid.
Care for Elderly Family Members or Adult Children
As your children, parents, or older siblings age, their needs change. It may be more economical to move them in with you to provide the care they need.
Extra Income
If you have an additional master bedroom, you could rent that space out as a side income. An attached bedroom and private bathroom will minimize the impact on the rest of your family.
