Of all the bathroom trends, farmhouse-inspired design is easily the most relaxed and cozy. There's just something about the sweet colors, lived-in look, and unpretentious materials that evoke simpler times and, thus, beget comfort and relaxation. And it's not all about shiplap and rustic, weathered pieces (or romantic ones, if the space is leaning in the shabby-chic direction). In fact, the style is surprisingly versatile! Farmhouse-style bathrooms can be full of modern, industrial, or polished twists—though we're also definitely on board for sticking to the classics. So whether you live in the remote countryside, a suburban town, or in the center of a metropolis, these 26 farmhouse bathrooms will inspire you to bring the trend home.

Incorporate Stone
Typically used for flooring, pebbles add a punch of texture and personality to bathtub walls in this stone farmhouse designed by Philip Smith in upstate New York. The pebbles also nod to the stone foundations of the home.

Highlight Preexisting Quirks
In this farmhouse-chic bathroom, the rustic mirrored cabinet blends in effortlessly and adds extra storage, since built-ins weren't the best option (they may interfere with the preexisting foundations of the space, which would downplay the worn and weathered beauty).

Use Tiles to Tie Colors Together
All the varying tiles in this bathroom by Heidi Cailler speak to the colors in the curtains and fixtures.
Classic subway tile on the walls and clinging the interior arch make this bathroom feel more spacious and open, but the abstract floor tiles help ground the room in the style. The floral and gingham shower curtains also soften the hard materials and modern elements.

Add Some Polish
With a linen slipcovered armchair, bright white paint, and laid-back accents, this bathrooms feels both farmhouse-inspired and clean-cut traditional. Create a little jewel box but lining all the walls with mirrors (this will also make the room feel bigger than it actually is).

Add a Touch of Glamor
This bathroom is approachable and cozy to live in, yet "the details stop and make you pay attention," says interior designer Jeffrey Dungan.
A separate niche spotlights the glamorous bathtub to create a visual moment—and an inviting place to soak. It's the perfect blend of elevated and down-to-earth—just what a modern farmhouse should be.

Take a More Modern Approach

Hang on-Theme Art
With a classic wood toilet lid, simply vanity base, stone tile floors, and a framed cow print, this bathroom has all the farmhouse staples. But then it get some more formal, modern flair. Heidi Caillier chose an unexpected shade of mauve paint, brass fixtures and lighting, and smokey marble materials for the shower.

Use Fresh Colors
Because the sink is right up against a wall-to-wall window in this Madcap Cottage-designed bathroom, small wall-mounted and shelf-set mirrors replace a larger one.
Meanwhile, the floral skirted sink vanity and complementary painted green walls make everyday feel like a fresh spring morning.

Lean Into the Funk
If you've inherited a farmhouse bathroom with old school anchor items, like a vintage sink, embrace them instead of trying to fight them and disguise them. Atelier ND allowed the mint green sink to set the tone, from the sconces to the modern art and floral wallpaper.

Pile on the Plants
This leafy oasis designed by Sara Solis gives the farmhouse look a Mediterranean spin. A tilting window in this 1930s bathroom lets in the breeze and draws the eye, so the designer added a copper tub right beneath it twin pedestal sinks play further into the symmetry, while greenery soaks up the sun. All bathrooms benefit from plants—they’re natural mood boosters

Stay Rustic
Keep things rustic with exposed stone flooring, a worn tub and sink, and antique details, like layers of hanging mirrors.
Leanne Ford updated the fixtures, hung a linen robe, and placed a hamper in the corner to bring things up to the date.

Add Wallpaper
This bathroom designed by Kathryn M. Ireland is happiness epitomized. She freshened up the space by upholstering the walls in her Greta Wallpaper.
The slipper chair adds a nice pop that sticks to the floral theme while bringing in some new, interesting colors.

Double It Up
Double sinks are always a win, especially when they're as farmhouse chic as the ones in this space by Hecker Guthrie. The sunny yellow backsplash brightens everything up and ties in the two hanging pendant lights.

Add Some Color
Doesn't this sweet baby blue bathroom designed by Abney Morton Interiors look like it's on a charming enclosed porch? If your clawfoot tub is a fresh color, paint your floors the same color and use a corresponding area rug.
Then frame a found object, like a vintage poster or map.

Customize a Vainty
It's all about layers and textures in this modern yet country-chic cabin designed by Heidi Caillier. She transformed a worn dresser into the sink vanity which is polished off with a natural stone topper for a more modern touch. The dark paint adds to the warm, cozy vibe while the scones and fixtures bring a little more contemporary refinement.

Opt for Antiques
If you don't love the look of exposed brick or worn wood shiplap, paint everything white and then inject the warmth you'd get from the weathered materials with an area rug and a repurposed vintage storage piece, like a trunk. A black clawfoot tub also adds some Victorian elegance.

Incorporate Concrete
If you like the farmhouse look but don't think it makes sense in an urban environment, incorporate more industrial elements that achieve a similar low-key mood to the farmhouse vibe.
Here, Leanne Ford worked with concrete and exposed piping.

Install a Schoolhouse Sink
Opt for a schoolhouse sink in a bathroom or powder room that gets a lot of foot traffic and use cafe curtains for a charming farmhouse feel. To break up the all white backdrop, Abney Morton Interiors used a navy blue sink. It adds contrast but still feels true to the style.

Spotlight a Copper Tub
Once you see this copper tub situation designed by Leanne Ford, you can't unsee it. Your farmhouse bathroom dreams just got a little bit fancier.

Tile the Floors
Wood paneling is merely the classic backdrop to this thoroughly modern space, but it also tends to darken the room. Instead, paint the walls a soft cream and then introduce wooden materials in accents like the toilet cover and mirror, as Heidi Caillier did here. The geometric tiled floor makes the charming farmhouse concept feel brand new, too.

Use Barn Doors
Is there anything more farmhouse than a sliding barn door? Maybe a weathered stand, but this bathroom's got that, too! Even better, these are some of the easiest doors to install yourself. See more at Shades of Blue Interiors.

A bathroom in a country house is a separate issue that requires detailed study.
Unlike an apartment, there is enough free space to implement even the most daring ideas. For the competent creation of an interior in such a bathroom, it is important to take into account the features of the room and other nuances, which we will discuss in this article. Designing a bathroom
Like any other room before renovation, a bathroom in a private house requires careful design. The advantage of a private house is the fact that the owner himself has the right to determine the dimensions of the future bathroom space and, based on them, make a sketch of the interior. nine0003
Usually in country estates are not limited to one bathroom. Their number can be calculated, but taking into account the following factors:
- number of storeys of the house;
- number of inhabitants;
- the need to accommodate guests for a while.
If the family is small, then one spacious bathroom will be enough, in which everything you need will fit.
If the owners of the house often receive guests, then you will have to think about the equipment of the guest bathroom. nine0003 As a rule, the bathroom is always located next to the bedroom. For convenience, it is equipped with two exits, one of which leads to the corridor, the second to the bedroom. For a house with several floors, you will have to consider having a bathroom on each of them for comfortable use and eliminating the search for this room throughout the house.
The size of a bathroom always depends on the personal preferences of the owner of the house, but it cannot be less than the figures specified in the SNiP. The minimum dimensions of the bathroom: length - 0.8 m and depth - 1.2 m. When planning, it is worth considering the dimensions of the equipment that will be installed in such a bathroom. nine0003
Large bathroom needs zoning. It can be carried out by installing partitions, screens, podiums, as well as visually different finishing materials and lighting design.
Location of communications in the bathroom
Various communications play an important role in the bathroom, for example, sewer pipes, wiring, water supply. The sources of water for the bathroom are various wells and wells, the water from which enters the house with the help of a pumping station. Both conventional household boilers and full-fledged boilers are responsible for heating water. nine0003
Important! So that the design of the bathroom is not spoiled, all communications are hidden with the help of installation or behind decorative overlays.
Pipes are hidden under drywall, screed or recessed into the walls, and meters and connections must be on the surface, since they need free access. Electrical wires are laid in special, pre-prepared grooves in the walls and covered with mortar. You can lay them in the seams between the tiles and cover them with tile adhesive. Such installation will not only make the room aesthetically attractive, but also protect the wires from moisture, which is inevitable in the bathroom.
nine0003 Surface finishes
In order for a bathroom interior to be complete, it is necessary to choose the right finishing material. In a country house, you can use different types of finishes, so we will present each separately.
Wood
Bathrooms made in chalet, Scandinavian, Provence or country style are processed with wood. At the same time, it is important to understand that only the material that has been impregnated with special compounds before installation can be used to avoid damage from moisture and temperature changes. Most often, lining, solid wood, timber, wooden decorative panels, laminate, and parquet boards are used to decorate surfaces in the bathroom. nine0003
Modern moisture-resistant wood materials can imitate natural wood with a noble texture. For example, the walls and ceiling of the bathroom are covered with veneer, and the floor is laid out with parquet or laminate. This results in a unique eco-friendly design of the bathroom.
Rounded log houses are unique buildings where the finish in the bathroom can be left in its original form. Only in this case, the tree is treated with antiseptic and moisture-resistant solutions. No less popular is the combined finish, when areas exposed to moisture are decorated with ceramic tiles. nine0003 Tiles
This is a traditional solution for bathrooms both in apartments and private houses. In this case, porcelain stoneware is used for the floor, it is convenient if it is equipped with grooves for water drainage.
Important! Only unglazed tiles are selected for flooring so that the surface is not slippery.
The walls, in turn, are covered with glazed material, which has a water-repellent layer. Thanks to the wide variety of tiles, you can create any bathroom design effortlessly. nine0003
For a small bathroom, it is recommended to use only light shades diluted with bright inclusions. This design will visually increase the space.
Mirror tiles have the same effect. Panels in the form of paintings made of ceramic tiles look original. Mosaic
Mosaic will add originality to the design of a bathroom in a private house. Moreover, it can be not only ceramic, as many used to think, but also glass, metal and even stone. nine0003
It is very convenient that now manufacturers offer ready-made elements made of tiles, so you don't even have to bother making an ornament out of small details. With the help of mosaic tiles in the bathroom of a private house, you can create not only simple geometric images, but also other pictures. It blends perfectly with conventional ceramic tiles, so this combination is often used in design.
Marble
For a private house, it is quite possible to afford to finish the bathroom walls with marble. Such a cladding, of course, looks impressive, but it is quite expensive, therefore it is available only to a limited number of owners of suburban real estate.
For greater savings, marble in the bathroom can be combined with other types of finishes. nine0003 Wallpaper
Bathroom wallcoverings – a specific finish. Here we are talking, of course, not about paper, but about water-repellent and washable wallpaper. They are best used in combination with marble or tiles that are placed opposite the washbasin and bathtub.
A universal option - wallpaper in a restrained range, pastel shades. If the furniture in the bathroom is light, then you can decorate the room with bright canvases. For especially original bathroom interiors, wallpapers with a 3D effect are suitable. nine0003
Important! Decorating a bathroom with wallpaper is a non-trivial approach that will definitely surprise guests at home.
Staining
It would seem that this type of finish has long been outdated and it's time to forget it. But now there is a huge amount of a wide variety of paints and varnishes, with which you can easily decorate a bathroom and it will look modern.
The only difficulty here is the need to level all surfaces before painting. nine0003 Finishing the bathroom with paint allows you to realize any ideas. When choosing bathroom paint, it is imperative to give preference only to trusted companies that guarantee the high quality of their products.
Bathroom furniture
For this room in the house, it is important to choose not only beautiful furniture that best suits the style, but also functional combined with practicality. Furniture items should not be afraid of moisture, they should be easy to clean not only from dirt, but also from water stains. nine0003
For a spacious bathroom you will need the following set of furniture:
- vanity unit;
- vertical storage box for everything you need;
- hanging shelves in the right quantity;
- chest of drawers;
- mirror.
If the bathroom of a private house means a relaxation area, then it usually contains an armchair or a comfortable chair and a coffee table.
For a small bathroom, some of the listed items can be removed, it is important to leave only the essentials. nine0003 Wooden bathroom furniture in a private house will emphasize the closeness to nature and environmental friendliness. Such furniture can be painted in any color, but designers recommend choosing those items that have a natural pattern and shade.
Metal furniture, no matter how strange it may seem, will also be appropriate in the bathroom, but only if it organically fits into the overall design. Now they produce metal furniture, which can be used not only in modern directions, but also in any other, it is enough to beat it correctly. nine0003
The glass surfaces of the furniture items are perfect for the bathroom, and it doesn't matter if the glass is frosted or transparent - this solution looks perfect. However, glass furniture is more difficult to care for, especially in the bathroom.
Plastic furniture is the most practical bathroom furniture.
Such products are not afraid of exposure to moisture and temperature changes, and it is also very easy to care for them. And the cost of such furniture is affordable. The main thing is to choose high-quality sets that will not look cheap against the background of the bathroom interior. nine0003 Style orientation of the interior
Any room, including a bathroom in a private house, must be made in a certain style. It is important that all elements of the interior harmonize with each other and support each other. Almost any style of interior can be done in the bathroom of a private house, as there are no restrictions here. We will consider the most popular of them.
Classic
This direction emphasizes the sophistication and presentability of the interior. A distinctive feature of such designs is versatility and being out of fashion.
Even after many years, such a bathroom will look relevant. In the design, as a rule, preference is given to natural materials, emphasizing the status of the owner and the uniqueness of the premises. nine0003 Fusion
This style is designed to combine incongruous. For courageous individuals, it is perfect and will convey a positive mood. It is based on bright colors and original solutions. Fusion style involves a combination of different textures and materials, creating unique eye-catching combinations in the bathroom of a private house.
Country
Simple home style, which will be relevant for a wooden private house, where it is much easier to design a bathroom in this way. Despite its rustic nature, this style is very popular among the inhabitants of the metropolis for the calm atmosphere that it gives. nine0003
Main materials for it: wood, forged metal and natural stone. As sanitary ware for the bathroom, brass elements are chosen to emphasize the design.
Hi-tech
A modern trend with high functionality. In such a bathroom, there is a place for glossy surfaces, an abundance of glass and metal. Plumbing is used only modern with many functions. Lighting is different, including outdoor.
Loft
A unique style suitable for those homes where the bathroom has a large room with high ceilings. Finishing here is minimal. If the house is brick or concrete, then in principle it may not exist, since it is brick and concrete that are the main elements that emphasize the industrial design. nine0003
If you correctly design such a bathroom in a private house, then it is quite possible to get a stylish room at minimal cost.
Provence
A style characterized by slight carelessness, which does not create a feeling of sloppiness or old age of things and objects. Slightly cracked plaster, shabby furniture and simple textiles give the bathroom in a private house an atmosphere of romance, typical of the French province.
Conclusion
A bathroom in a private house is a space that allows even the most unique and original ideas to come true. Thanks to the freedom of choice, a variety of interior designs are created, depending on the wishes of the owner of the house.

Design features
The design of a bathroom in a private house is not much different from this room in an apartment building, but it has its own characteristics:
- many bathrooms have a window that must be taken into account during repairs ;
- floors in houses are usually colder, so having a warm floor will not hurt;
- it is also necessary to insulate the walls facing the street; nine0006
- if there are wooden elements in the bathroom, they are covered with a protective compound;
- waterproofing, ventilation and communications (water supply, sewerage) will have to be taken care of independently;
- When laying electrical wiring, do not forget about grounding if you plan to install a washing machine or water heater in the bathroom.
What to consider when planning?
The ergonomics of a bathroom in a country house depends on the following numbers:
- Sink. For comfortable washing, install it at a height of 80-110 cm from the floor, leaving 20 cm of free space on the sides. A platform of at least 70-75 cm is required in front of it.
- Toilet. Free 40-45 cm from the sides and 60 cm in front will ensure ease of use.
- Bidet. Do not move it away from the toilet, the optimal distance between them is 38-48 cm.
- Shower cabin. The minimum parameters are 75 * 75 cm, but it is better not to save space and put a box of 90 * 90 cm.
- Bath. Comfortable bowl depth - 55-60 cm, comfortable width for a person with an average build - 80 cm. The length should be chosen according to your height, the most popular models are 150-180 cm.

Finishes
Finishing a bathroom in a private house starts from the ceiling.
The simplest and most popular option is tension. The canvas is not afraid of high humidity, easily tolerates temperature changes and does not require special care. If you want to emphasize the style of decorating your own home, use wooden beams or clapboard. But do not forget to treat the tree with moisture protection to prevent the growth of mold and fungus. An alternative option is plastic panels that resemble lining and have all the advantages of a stretch ceiling. nine0003

The design of the bathroom in the house involves the use of tiles, paint, wallpaper, wood or PVC panels on the walls. The most practical options are ceramic tiles, waterproof paint and PVC slats. They are durable, water resistant and easy to clean. Wooden wall decoration, like wallpaper, is used in homes with large bathrooms away from the bath and shower. For example, in the storage area. Do not be afraid to combine materials with each other, here are the most popular combinations: ceramic
- tiles + mosaic;
- mosaic + paint;
- paint + wallpaper;
- ceramic tiles + wallpaper;
- ceramic tiles + lining.
Combine different types of the same material. The symbiosis of tiles with the texture of wood and marble looks beautiful.

The bathroom floor should not be afraid of water. The best options are tiles, natural or artificial stone, self-leveling floor. Because all materials are cold, take care of installing a warm floor before installing them. The floor covering should also be anti-slip, even if you spill water or step on wet feet. For more comfortable movement around the bathroom, lay small rugs in the most active areas (toilet, bathtub, sink). nine0003

Bathroom arrangement
The interior of a bathroom in a private house begins with the selection of the necessary plumbing. The first thing you have to decide: bath or shower.
In large bathrooms, you can install both. But if you need to make a choice, use the cheat sheet.
