Laundry room reveal

11 years ago

We just updated our laundry/mud room after years of dealing with a too small space with too much stuff! We come in from the garage and this room is on the left so our shoes and coats and bags get dropped here. There is also a laundry chute from upstairs and of course the washer and dryer. I drew up about 5 different layouts trying to decide if I wanted to stack my machines or leave them side by side. We never had a sink before and that was a problem. In the end I'm thrilled with how it turned out. I've already managed to conceal almost every bit of "junk" behind doors and still have room to spare.


Here is before.


One of the most impactful things we did was remove the door in favor of a pocket door. It gave us so much more space. We reduced the size of the overly large laundry chute (behind the door) and took out the framing of what is supposed to be a closet and opened it up to the ceiling.

On the left are 4 cubbies with storage above and space for shoes below




On the other side we stacked the washer and dryer and added a tall cabinet and a sink base built by my builder. I was able to squeeze in a small hanging bar. Under the sink base I have my two laundry totes and trash and a step stool.
