Use this concept:

I do not have time to make another sketch.

The measurement from the fridge to the wall is actually 11’.

Thank you Mark.

The location of the entry door has moved and I believe it warrants shifting the closet across from the new door location. Your idea above worked better for the original layout which is what you have pictured. With your concept, and the new door location you would walk in the door with the washer/dryer directly in front of you and I don’t find that to be as desirable.

Would this work? I always love to have my laundry sink under a window. You will then have room for a longer countertop for folding. Your W/D are not so close to the entry door. You will have extra room for another closet, shelving, or a bench across from the entrance.

Lol Mark! Laundry is one of the chores I don’t mind. I’ve never seen an ugly washer/dryer. I will look for a pretty set of machines when the time comes. I get your point.... if the machines are close to the door. Thank you!

nhb22, thank you, that is the concept I was leaning towards. I like the window over the sink, maybe adding a window over washer dryer? I was actually thinking of moving the closet but maybe I should look at adding a closet, shelving or bench near the door as you suggest.

I would live with it as for a few months. Give yourself some time to get used to the space. A need or inspiration will come along & jump into your head. Perhaps you'll want to add a full size freezer. Gardeners & grease monkeys might like to have a shower stall. Pet wash station... A place for hockey gear...

If you use nhb’s layout, you can have a trash can next to the dryer. Handy for disposing of the Starbucks cup from the car, or the junk mail (yes, yes, do a divided can with a section for recycling), and the dryer lint.

One way to approach it is to locate the deep items (refrigerator, washer, dryer, etc.) on one side of the room and the shallow items (cabinets. etc.) on the other side of the room.

All good ideas! Thank you.

Mark, that makes total sense now! deeper items on one side. Now I have to start looking for that pretty washer and dryer! Thank you!

I'd recommend having closet, hooks and boot shelves next to the door to garage, and w/d right inside the hall door for the shortest distance to carry baskets, with sink in between. Outside chores>drop boots/coat>wash hands>dirty clothes in laundry basket 😊

AbbyJoy, thank you...I was thinking of setting it up that way but Mark had a valid point, to place the deeper items along one wall. w/d and refrigerator. I’m looking at pros and cons.

@hunt597, A little late here, but this is what I would do.

Our mudroom closet is across from our garage door. We live in a four-seasons climate so it is nice to have the closet near the door. I would leave the broom closet where it is and place the coat closet on the opposite end of that wall with a sit-down bench in-between the closets with hooks and shoe depository.

On the opposite wall, I would place the refrigerator where the coat closet is shown so that it is close to the kitchen. To the right of the refrigerator I would place the dryer, washer, then sink. I like having the sink next to the washer so that if I am pre-soaking something, I can easily shift it from the sink to the washing machine without too much dripping. Also in these days of COVID, it is nice to have a sink near the door for washing hands.
