Liz Conrad Interiors & StagingLaundry/Mudroom in Morgan Court House
Vintage Bench with shoe bins below and hooks above serve as catch space next to the laundry.
We removed a full wall of cabinetry that surrounded the washer and dryer. It looked like a lot of storage but in this skinny room was more cumbersome than helpful. It also didn't allow for any space to use as a mudroom. I received a lot of side eye removing cabinets, but in the end being able to shift the washer/dryer over allowed for the door into the garage to open fully without hitting the washer (or the laundress). It also gave us space to use for mudroom purposes.

Susan Yeley HomesBloomington is filled with a lot of homes that have remained trapped in time, which is awesome and fascinating (albeit sometimes frightening). When this young family moved to Bloomington last spring, they saw potential behind the Florida wallpaper of this Eastside ranch, and good bones despite its choppy layout. Wisely, they called SYI and Loren Wood Builders for help bringing it into the two thousand-teens.
Two adjacent bathrooms were gutted together and went back up in much better configurations. A half bath and mud-cum-laundry room near the garage went from useful but blah, to an area you don't have to close the door on when guests come over. Walls came down to open up the family, living, kitchen and dining areas, creating a flow of light and function that we all openly envy at SYI. (We do not hide it whatsoever. We all want to live in this happy, bright house. Also the homeowners are amazing cooks, another good reason to want to move in.)
Like split-levels and bi-levels, ranches are often easy to open up for the casual and connected spaces we dig so much in middle America this century.
Knock down walls; unify flooring; lighten and brighten the space; and voila! a dated midcentury shell becomes a modern family home.

Closet Organizing SystemsThis mudroom is finished in grey melamine with shaker raised panel door fronts and butcher block counter tops. Bead board backing was used on the wall where coats hang to protect the wall and providing a more built-in look.
Bench seating is flanked with large storage drawers and both open and closed upper cabinetry. Above the washer and dryer there is ample space for sorting and folding clothes along with a hanging rod above the sink for drying out hanging items.

Lark ArchitectureThe opposite side of the bed loft houses the laundry and closet space. A vent-free all-in-one washer dryer combo unit adds to the efficiency of the home, with convenient proximity to the hanging space of the closet and the ample storage of the full cabinetry wall.
