I would never buy a house with the laundry in the master bath or bedroom. Laundry is work, not sanctuary as a bedroom should be. In addition, how does one run washer and dryer if one’s partner is sick in bed or sleeping in on the weekend? I know I am bucking the second-floor-laundry-is wonderful trend, but I spend most of my day on the first floor, cooking, cleaning, reading, visiting, planning. Laundry for me needs to be where I can easily check it.

IMO an upstairs laundry is just as awkward as a basement one if at all possible try yo put the laundry on the main floor where you spend most of your time and no running up and down stairs to move clothes . Closets need to be sepearte from bathrooms to avoid moisture getting into your clothes . IMO if you don’t have the laundry there then the whole space changes . I would like to see a 2 D floor plan to scale all spaces marked and all measurements readable and the drawing able to be enlarged IMO you can do better with that space . Forget what the finishes will be until you have a perfect plan. BTW I have had a laundry on the 2nd floor and did not find it convient at all.

Appreciate everyone's inputs.

Main level laundry is not possible with our floorplan. And impractical for us. Laundry is currently in the basement level. So why wouldn't you want to take your clothes off and throw em directly into the laundry. Wash/dry. Fold and put directly into closet that's right there. Why you would want to take them down two sets of stairs is beyond me.

Thank you calidesign for you opinion on the bathroom doors. Completely forgot about swing factor and how that'll affect the space. We planned on doing a pocket door for the master closet but didn't think about the entry door into the bathroom. Might looking into sliding doors for the laundry instead as well. So appreciate the positive input.

I've had every laundry configuration imaginable -- second floor, first floor, garage, basement -- you name it. Basement laundry is the pits (that's what I have now) -- a second floor laundry area is a huge improvement. I liked my second floor laundry, especially when I had teenagers. The laundry stayed out of sight and out of the living area.

You have the dimensions of my bathroom with laundry!!! I love having the laundry in the bathroom. Click on the pictures to get them full sized.

This is my 2 door bathroom that connects with a small bedroom on the right side, and a hall on the left side. I debated if I should keep the door on the right, but decided to so that if I needed a hospital bed in the small room, it would work. The shower is 36x60" Kohler cast iron pan and tiled walls. The blue square in the upper left corner is the W/D stack. the smaller gray square next to the W/D is the custom cabinet that surrounds the W/D as seen above. The vanity is 60" long and 21" deep. I am very happy with the setup.
