New bathroom
Comments

The bath currently fits in the space between the cupboard & the external wall. I'm not sure I'd gain anything by removing the cupboard - the extra space will open it up but I don't think it can really be used.
The easiest option would seem to be leave everything more-or-less where it is now, and put a shower behind the loo door. Sounds much like Slinky's except that I don't need to turn the toilet 90 degrees.
My neighbours knocked through some years ago and also removed the airing cupboard. They don't have a separate shower. It does look very spacious and uncluttered but I don't think they have really maximised the space.0 -
I would definitely knock that wall down and create a larger bathroom before sticking it on the market. Keeping it in its current state will only deter buyers whereas having a fully fitted new bathroom suite will definitely attract more.
And avoid keeping the extractor fan.

I have just bought a house with a separate shower room and toilet and I too am eventually going to knock it through but depends on cost.

If it weren't for the fact that there's no washbasin in the toilet I would suggest keeping them separate. It can be a bit inconvenient having to wait for someone to finish having a bath or shower if you're waiting to use the loo!0
