A young couple have shown off the incredible renovation of their old run down, retro bathroom.

Amelia and Dean from Christchurch, New Zealand, transformed their space into a serene retreat for $12,000 – and the result was well worth the hard work. 

The couple began their transformation with a fresh coat of paint onto the walls and added new ceiling lights to instantly modernise the room.

They then added in a new bath tub from Caroma and a new shower floor with wall cut-outs for storage, then added white paneling around the vanity. 

Amelia’s vanity from Bathroom Clearance features a sleek white design with a golden tap and handles to introduce a pop of colour to the room. 

The LED mirror light from Trade Depot sits above the sink and a gold heated towel rack was screwed onto the opposite wall to compliment the bathroom tap.

The shower space has been covered in sage green tiles in the shade Crest Sea Foam and the gold shower head from Mitre 10 matches the other bathroom details.  

The innovative bathroom design features a joint shower and bath tub space behind the glass door to ensure water is kept in one area and cleaning is made easy. 

‘We love it, so practical! Cleaning the bath is a breeze because you can use the hand held shower head,’ Amelia wrote.
