Side by side washer and dryer need approximately 60" of clear area. Then there's the issue of storage and a counter top with lower and upper cabs. Often there's a closet for broom, vacuum, mop, and shelves for cleaner, wax, soap and the like.

Where will you put all these things in the plan above?

If you reversed the W&D and relocated them on the wall separating the laundry from the closet, you could add a small closet with built-ins under the stairs.

Virgil I put the washer and dryer on that wall under the stairs to leave the opposite wall open for a closet and hanging space. It sounds like there won't be enough space to have the w&d where it is. I just posted another thread about possibly downsizing the build so this could be a moot point.

Well...it's not at all clear to me why you couldn't simply relocate the W&D on the opposite wall, change the door location and have usable space on the opposite wall under the stairs.

In the current design, you don't have room for anything on the wall shared with the bedroom closet, and you're losing all the space under the stairs.

Do you have an architect?

Do you have an architect?

Yes, and the exciting news is he is planning to start on the redesign next week. I will ask him to look at putting the laundry in the bedroom wing. Hopefully he can come up with a viable solution.

If you have an architect, s/he will quickly give you some ideas. If you have a drafter or CAD operator, they will ask you what you want to do. Good luck!
