        "text": "A half bathroom includes a toilet and sink, while a full bathroom includes a toilet, sink, and shower or tub-and-shower combination. A half bath serves primarily day guests and fits into small footprints as compact as 18 to 25 square feet, requiring straightforward plumbing tie-ins. A full bath requires roughly 40 to 60 square feet or more to accommodate a walk-in shower or tub, alongside dedicated moisture ventilation and waterproofing. Choose a half bath for common living spaces and a full bath for expanding guest or multigenerational bedroom suites.",
