How many toilets can you fit into one bathroom? This South Milwaukee home has an answer.

SOUTH MILWAUKEE, WI — Here’s an innovative solution for a growing family becoming strained by restroom wait times: Why add more bathrooms to your home when you can just add more toilets?

This South Milwaukee home takes the concept beyond the drawing board with a communal bathroom that features a row of toilets within an arm’s length of each other.

So, if taking a trip to the restroom means bringing your friends and family along for the ride, look no further. Seriously, if you look further, you might lock eyes with the person sitting on the throne next to you. There are no dividers between the toilets.

That’s not to say the bathroom doesn’t appear high-end, though.

It also features gorgeous floor tiling and a wall of sinks for efficient hand hygiene in our pandemic-strained times, although the size of the bathroom might not live up to the physical distancing standards we’ve become used to.

The house was one of the first in its area. It was built in 1851 by the Fowle family, and at one point it served as a Girl Scout retreat, according to its listing, although it’s unclear as to who added the toilet wall and for what purpose.

But if bathroom time doesn’t exactly correlate to family time for you, there’s no shortage of other spots in this house to relax with your kin. A spacious dining room, living room and updated kitchen mean there’s plenty of space for a growing family to get together or stay out of each other’s hair, the listing shows.

The home has been maintained throughout as modern touches have been added over time, and it also features an apartment in the backyard that can be rented out or used as an in-law suite, the listing says.

If you were hoping to make an offer on this home and its row of toilets, though, you may be too late. Redfin shows the .38-acre lot and home already has a contingent offer for this South Milwaukee home that has relief for bathroom-strained households.
