This worked very well even while sharing a wall with a kid’s bedroom. The closet had folding doors and I added a shower curtain rod for hanging clothing above the machines. It had laundry closet in the upstairs hallway. We got new orders and moved to a place that was newly renovated. Then i made first class and moved into e-6 and about housing new construction!! Dedicated LR upstairs in middle of house (best set up) we had a deep sink and counter space! the washer was in a floor pan never had any flooding and we have five kids so laundry was going almost 24/7 Then we moved to a bigger place the washer dryer was in the mud room to the garage but bedrooms were upstairs (that was horrible) we were constantly rewashing cloths and it was unsightly. The twins would only sleep when the dryer was running for white noise. When i first got married we lived in a single story house (no chose for basement) the LR was in the same hallway as the bedrooms.

Starting to build our house this year, have allowed for two small laundry areas, one at the back door where hubby is likely to drag in muddy boots and overalls. Upgrading to steel braided hoses is actually a good idea no matter what floor your washer is located on.
