Laundry Room · More Info

Hi all! We have a split level ranch, we bought it needing work and now the time has come to renovate the first level. I've completely gutted the entire floor and I'm having an issue with the laundry room layout. I have stackable washer drier units. The most I can really allow for a laundry room is a 5x10 space. Will this work? I was thinking of stacking the units on the 5' side and then have custom cabinets with a slop sink on the 10' side. Any thoughts? Pictures? I need some help. I've attached a picture of what I think the layout would look like. Does anyone have anything similar to this? Thanks!

Not sure why you think turning the corner is needed in a 10' room. These are my favorite laundry room, and the large sink in the first picture IMO is a must have. I think I saw this American Standard sink on sale at Wayfair or Overstock. I have items that have to be soaked and two small dogs to wash.

I'm with Beverly, I'd rather not stack if needed, I'd line up the machines with a counter over them plus a sink (if needed) along one side and cabinets, shelving, and/or a drying rack above.

If you place your front loading washer & dryer side by side, you will probably need the pedestals under them, otherwise they will be very low to the floor, causing unnecessary bending when loading/unloading. A laundry sink is great if you have the room.

Turning the corner as planned in picture is the most efficient use of space, whether W/D stacked in corner or under counter on long wall. Turn the corner with cabinets, eg pantry or closet style, or W/D.
