Get Access to the Laundry Room Through the Master
Raleigh New Homes
Floor plan designs often place the master suite and laundry room on opposite ends of the home. This keeps washer and dryer noise away from the bedroom and directs traffic patterns away.
See a photo tour of this home, a version of the Cabot, with a white and back tile pattern in the laundry room accessible through the master closet.
What are the most common locations for a laundry room?
On the first floor, laundry rooms are most often kept next to the kitchen/garage entrance, mud room, and drop zone.
On the second floor, laundry rooms are most often placed between kids' bedrooms or down a hallway (still keeping the master bedroom separated from laundry room noise and traffic).
