It’s cheaper.

The washing machine and dryer need to be in a separate room in the basement or hallway (Up or Down stares) or near the garage by the mudroom.

I had a ranch style home. The washer was next to the garage and the master was across the living room - on the other side of the house.

I never want my washer or hot water tank upstairs. Those are serious accidents waiting to happen. And I've seen it when things go badly.

I'd like to have my washer/dryer near the back of the house or at least out of the way in its own room. I need space for baskets and clothing, Ironing Boards, laundry supplies and cleaning supplies.

like it's right outside my bedroom door.

But even at 30 steps, that's not a big deal. Then you have to take into account potential flooding and the ease of installation when replacing an older machine and if the plumbing even works in your space.

And yeah, if you have a big bedroom, you hang out in it sometimes. Don't need all that noise.

Dude, i'm not pulling out a tape measure. All I know is I open my Master bedroom door, the next door in the hallway is my laundry.

And you're not saving that much time anyways.

My wife does all the laundry (by choice) and with the smaller units she was doing laundry ALL THE TIME. SHe complained about it often.

When 3 loads turned to one load it was a game changer.

the master? your fav kids? your least fav? the guest bedroom?

unless youre single or childless youre going to have to leave the room to hang some of the clothes.

a rod near your dryer would be a good move no matter where your dryer is.

i do think it makes sense for them to be near the bedrooms.

Your guests/kids are going to laundry a fraction of the time you will
But you’ll deviate an entire house plan to accommodate for that?
Ok

if youre changing a new house a floor drain is kind of a big deal. very possible but it will add expense. very worth it for that one time when the washer does leak though.

But as a ground up house I’m not hearing anything that’s not a workable issue.

“There is no fate that cannot be surmounted by scorn.” -Albert Camus

Get a steamer for your closet.

Personally, I wish ours was in the kitchen like the Euros do, not in our damn basement, but plumbing a bedroom sounds a bit insane.

It’s the appendix of home design
A remnant is separate quarters, maids, stay at home wives, bread winner sleeping in and not to be bothered.

------
“There is no fate that cannot be surmounted by scorn.” -Albert Camus

The washing machine's plumbing and drain, when/if they fail, will be a huge problem for moisture, but you are also creating a venting conundrum by running appliances that need dedicated external venting, which also tend to be sources of high off-heating, in an area that is normally highly HVAC regulated.
Then there is however you run your dryer; building code doesn't allow any gas-powered appliance in a sleeping quarter (I believe), unless it is well vented. A purely electric dryer would work, but we're back at the venting vs HVAC issue.

But go for it. I've seen some weird things touring homes that fly in the face of all conventional thinking but were 100% driven by some homeowner's personal vision of functionality (fully exposed shower in a full bathroom, for example...shit and shower at once).

I was watching something two days ago about the I3, Tesla, and Volt
And the design choices they made for the Volt were basically “let’s drop an electric motor where a combustion engine should be”
Which works, but when you design from a different starting point you typically end up with something different.
Houses aren’t really all that different
Home design has its foundations built upon gender roles and income of white men and their nuclear family.
If you were building a house with the idea of long term living as opposed to future investment and mixed roles you’d end up with something different.

possibly a square. when i did the layout in hs i decided to put the bathroom in the corners, i think 3/4. bedrooms were on the exterior. i dont remember if the kitchen was on the exterior or part of the living area.

not sure how i would go about it if i really gave it some thought today. i know even then the bathrooms in the corners gave me some concern as far as plumbing goes.

but yeah basically a living room surrounded by bedroom on all sides. there would be a hallway around the living room.

is this a thing? would it suck?

I'd build me a quality home just the way I want, but it would have to be the last home I'd want to live it because overly customized homes are really hard to set.

With a pass through door. It's essentially in the same room as your closet but you can close it off for privacy when needed.

Our place has one upstairs near all the bedrooms. It's a short walk around the corner from the master and one of the kids bed rooms. Slightly longer walk down a hall to the other two kids bedrooms on the second level.

First floor also has a washer/dryer set in the mud room for kitchen towels/guest laundry.

Basement is laundry free...more man cave space.

Makes more sense than a double accessible master bath.

“There is no fate that cannot be surmounted by scorn.” -Albert Camus

the major issue with it in the actual closet is this is really only ideal if there aren't that many people in the house.

so expanding a family or having multiple generations would pretty much kill most of the benefits of having it in the master closet by itself...that's way too limiting

it's trying to find a fix for a minor problem by introducing new ones

i feel like tech is really the only solution to most of it...quieter/near silent and self folding tech is what's missing from laundry moreso than home design tweaks
