As a homeowner, you don’t need to devote a lot of space in your house to a dedicated laundry room. A loft, closet or tucked-away space under your home’s stairs all make for great spots to incorporate an efficient and easy-to-access laundry station. Use our tips to create and manage the perfect spot for you and your family to tackle day-to-day laundry chores.
Hide Your Laundry Room in Plain Sight
A front-loading washer and dryer fit neatly under lower cabinets. Cabinet doors close to hide the machines when not in use, and open to fully expose them when needed. The counter serves as a buffet during meals and a folding spot during laundry time.
Tip: Front-loading washing machines are more energy efficient than traditional top-loaders. They can use up to 65 percent less water and 46 percent less energy than top-loading machines.
