Might just have to remove plaster board, make me a timber frame, and then something for a door. You could use mdf for the door and paint, or sheeted timber and varnish, really depends on taste and whats their.

It may be quite a small space as their is already a toilet installed. A few pics might help with some more advice.

Remember that when you get into the void, you may be dealing with a 4"soil coming from the Pan which you wont be able to do much with, and it will make your store a lot smaller. I underlined may as it depends on the layout of your sanitary ware and pipework.
