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.

You haven't commented on whether the house is on a slab or basement/crawlspace. The sewer consideration would be my #1 concern, and ripping into a slab would be a dealkiller for me.

Unfortunately, its on a slab. We don't really have room for basements here in South Florida.
