small utility layout help

last year

I want to get the best layout for this small utility.
I would like to include a spare fridge and freezer. A washing machine and dryer and a small sink.
Is this possible ? The doors are all In really annoying places!
The only thing I can think of is on the back wall have a 60cm fridge freezer, followed by a washing machine and tumble dryer stacked on top of each other and then a 1000m unit with a sink in it. Thoughts ?
Thanks !!

If you only have 2200mm then something will have to be stacked. l have my fridge stacked over my freezer and also my tumble drier stacked over my washing machine. Saves a lot of unnecessary bending down.

I'm planning to have something stacking but just worried what if it gets a repair and service engineer wants to take it down... Will he be able to do that or if we have to take it down for him...

Much better layout and use of space. You need to work out “what do you want in your utility room?” I have a single run of work surface with cupboards over it. It houses the boiler in one of the cupboards but all manner of junk in the others! Underneath the worksurface I have a freezer, a wine cooler, and two washer / dryers. These are all in one row. By NOT having a return on the work surface I have a back door into the utility room. You could do the same and therefore your problem is resolved. If you were to move your doorway of the utility room onto the other wall you could have the return on your worksurface if you wanted it, or you could use that wall as shoe storage. Instead of a door you could have an open archway, as I have, making the room more spacious and accessible to the kitchen. Our dog sleeps in the utility room and we use a foldaway stair gate to keep him in, so easy access to the room during the day, when we need it, but able to lock him in at night when we want to. We also have a dog flap in the utility door so the dog has access to the garden whenever he wants, a very useful feature!

Hi Pugster, My suggestion would be to put the fridge and freezer next to the boiler and have the entire wall floor to ceiling cabinets, with fridge and freezer integrated. That would also hide the boiler, electrics and boxed in pipes. I would carry the cabinets around the corner opposite the window, to give you tons of storage however I would have them raised above the ground to make small cosy spaces for the pets underneath. This would include a sleeping and eating area for the dog and an eating area for the cat. The final cabinet would house the washer/dryer stack. I would use the wall next to the door for the coats and I would put one radiator under the coats (There's nothing better than nice warm coats in the morning!). Shoes storage could be built here with the radiator on top. The space under the sink I would leave clear for more shoe storage. Over on the window side I would use the existing plumbing to add a small sink next to which I would have another small radiator. Over the window I would have a pulley clothes rack on the ceiling above the radiator and across the sink. I would make all the cabinets floor to ceiling and access the upper ones with the aid of a ladder. I think that's everything on your list?

The only other thing I would say is don’t totally rule out the corner cabinet idea if you can afford the type of internal pull and slide fittings that allow you to easily access everything inside. I seem to remember that they were ridiculously expensive but I could be wrong. Only you know much you need to store and how much space you’ve got in your kitchen.

That is super useful thank you. I might think about putting the washing machines into the utility room, moving the bathroom into that space then using the bathroom space as a place to take off shoes/store coats etc. It’s great to see a different perspective so I really appreciate you taking the time to do the drawing.

I think you have the best solution already. Your utlilty looks like a high traffic area and keeping everything on the back wall, including a stacked tumble drier, will make the best use of space. ( Vedh Sri - tumble driers are light enough for an engineer to take down, however to reduce the risk of repair buy the best quality one )
