We turned a large bath/laundry room into a small bath w/laundry in the closet and a separate bath off of the master bedroom. The original bath was large w/lots of wasted space. It took some careful planning, but I wouldn't change it as I love having a master bath!

I keep all my makeup in a caddy in the master bathroom but carry it, with a magnification mirror, to a bedroom window that gets natural light. That way I don't wind up with a clown face when I go outdoors! (The master bath doesn't have a window, and I didn't want to get one of those makeup mirrors that change to natural light since I have a wall of bedroom windows with all the natural light I want.) It's an excellent system.

When I was younger I owned a townhouse with a stackable set in the master bathroom, the small kind of stackable ones. It was fine. Maybe I was young and happy to not go to the laundrymat. For my current remodel I had considered it but decided against it. But that's just me. As a potential buyer, I would not want to look at a W/D in the bath. Can you put them in some sort of cabinet? I've seen pics where people put them side by side and have foldable doors to cover the front of the W/D, so it looks like a cabinet. Looking out the window when you fold laundry sounds great. Will you have some sort of expandable rack to hang clothes as you put them on hangers? I'm not clear on where the bathroom parts will go if the W/D are under the window, but I'm sure you'll figure it out. Maybe you can consult with a designer or someone skilled to help with the layout, maybe someone at a kitchen and bath design store or ? Maybe a 1 hour consultation would reap some good ideas. (?)

I HATED having my washer and drier in the garage - an unairconditioned garage at that. So it was AWFULLY hot - in Florida. And we did park our vehicles in the garage, so it was not full of junk, as someone has suggested. So I understand your want for it to be inside. You'll just have to measure your space and get measurements for the units you're considering to see if they will fit. Get someone out there, tell him what you want, and ask if it's possible and if he can do it, and at what cost. I'd do it, too. Wouldn't care about "resell", as I AM THE ONE who is living there and doing the laundry - not some potential person who may not even exist. Make your home comfortable for YOU, not someone who may buy your house IF you decide to sell, and then will redo it anyway.
