Thoughts on adding a bathroom (lemmy.world)

I have a 4bd/2ba that I want to add another bathroom to. There is a small "office" (it's not big enough to be considered another room) that I would like to convert to said bathroom. The two existing bathrooms are right next to each other in the rear of the house and the water cutoff is in front of the property, on the sidewalk.

What considerations would I need to worry about with a project like that? We don't want to go septic.

It's not a big deal, pex and sewage line into the existing, assuming this is one story home, if bathroom is upstairs then it's a little more involved. Plumbing isn't going to be the hard work, that stuff is easy. It's converting a room into a bathroom with tile and tub/sink/toilet that will take much longer than just running water and plumbing.
