Your laundry room is an important part of your home. It’s where you keep things clean and organized, so your family always has something to wear. Yet the placement of your laundry room is sometimes a challenge. Do you want it easily accessible, or out of sight? If you’re adding a new laundry room to your Charlotte-area home, make sure you think through your placement options before you begin the process.
Laundry Rooms Near the Kitchen
Putting a laundry room near your kitchen is a popular choice. This works particularly well in an open-floor-plan or one-story home. It keeps the laundry room near the areas of your home where you are living and working every day. Be sure to give the laundry room doors so you can contain any laundry-related clutter.
Laundry Rooms in the Basem*nt
If your home has a basem*nt, this can be prime space for your laundry room. Often you have extra room in the basem*nt, and it’s easy to keep your mess out of sight in the basem*nt.
If you choose this option, don’t just put a washer and dryer in the basem*nt and call it good. Use this space to create a productive workspace in your home. Add shelving and cabinetry to make it a productive area. The drawback of this option is the need to go up and down the stairs every time you want to take care of a laundry need.
Laundry Rooms Near Your Bedrooms
The bedroom is where your laundry starts, because this is where you change your clothes. Having your laundry room near the bedroom makes it easy to toss the dirty items where they need to go, or transfer your clean laundry to the appropriate closet or dresser. A large closet or extra bedroom is easy to transform into a laundry room with the help of the right construction team.
Mudrooms as Laundry Rooms
If your home has a mudroom, this might be the perfect place for your laundry room. It’s already a catch-all kind of room, and it’s typically located near main living areas, like the kitchen. Consider whether or not you have room for your laundry in this part of your home, then talk to a construction team about making this transformation.
