Vastu considers this a challenging placement, but it can be balanced without construction.
Very poor location for bathroom.
Best direction: North-West (100/100)
In Vastu Shastra, the South-West is the earth zone (Nairutya). It governs stability, relationships and the authority of the head of the family, and is best kept heavy and closed. Its element is earth and its presiding deity is Nairutya.
Bathrooms and toilets carry water and waste out of the home, so Vastu places them where outflow is natural and keeps them away from sacred and stable zones.
South-West is the stability zone; a bathroom here — associated with drainage and letting go — works against it, and is linked to instability in relationships or finances.

Keep the toilet lid down and the door closed at all times.
Place a heavy potted plant or stone décor just outside the door to help re-anchor the zone.
Favor earthy tiles and tones over white or blue.
