Walk-In Closet With Washer and Dryer: Made for Real Life

When a builder’s story begins in a high school shop class and carries through generations, you know craftsmanship isn’t just a skill, it’s a family legacy. That is exactly what you find at Worth Custom Homes. Founded by Bill Worth in 1980, the company grew out of his early passion for carpentry and the years he spent mastering both framing and finishing work. His son, Jarod, practically grew up on the jobsite, starting at just four years old by picking up nails and slowly working his way into the trade. After college, he stepped in as a Project Manager at only 22, bringing both hands-on experience and formal training to the family business.

As a family-owned and operated company, their dedication to excellence and customer care runs deep, and we’re excited to share a project we had the honor of collaborating on, featuring a nicely designed walk-in closet with washer and dryer.

Walk-in closets and laundry rooms offer more design opportunity than most people realize, especially when both spaces are planned together with intention.

Partnering with Worth Custom Homes

For their recent Riverfront Patio Home project, we had the privilege of joining the Worth team to create a custom walk-in closet that brings beauty and function together. Our role was to design and build a space that not only fit the architectural vision of the home but also made daily living easier: the walk-in closet with washer and dryer. Thoughtful storage, integrated organization, and a built-in laundry area create a space that blends high-end craftsmanship with everyday practicality.

Open shelving and a walk-in closet island provide an amazing way to display decor while keeping everyday essentials organized. And a hanging rod placed near the washer and dryer offers the perfect solution for air-drying garments. These details make the space incredibly practical without sacrificing style, bringing together the best elements. This closet truly has it all.

Partnering with Worth Custom Homes felt natural because, like us, they’re a family-owned company driven by quality and intention. When both teams care deeply about their craft, the collaboration becomes effortless and the finished space speaks for itself.

Walk-In Closet With Washer and Dryer: Pros & Cons

A walk-in closet can completely streamline daily living. It offers convenience and efficiency that many homeowners quickly grow to love. Having laundry right there means no more hauling baskets across floors, fewer wrinkles, and the ease of putting clothes away the moment they come out of the dryer. It also frees up space elsewhere in the home that would otherwise be dedicated to a laundry room. In many primary suites, venting is straightforward, and the extra warmth can feel especially cozy during winter months.

However, this setup does come with trade-offs. Incorporating laundry into the primary suite requires giving up valuable storage space, and the noise can be disruptive for anyone sensitive to sound. There is also the potential for moisture, heat, and lint to affect nearby clothing or finishes. And unless there is a second laundry area, family members may end up entering private living quarters to wash their clothes.

Ultimately, there is no one-size-fits-all answer. Whether a washer and dryer in the primary suite is the right choice depends entirely on the homeowner’s lifestyle, priorities, and how they prefer their home to function.

In our case, this walk-in closet offered ample square footage and generous natural ventilation. With plenty of space to work with and a window that helps regulate both airflow and temperature, heat and moisture were never a concern. This allowed us to integrate the laundry components well, keeping the space functional, comfortable, and beautifully balanced.
