[quote=Anonymous]I would prefer to have 4 bedrooms together and the utilities in the basement away from the bedrooms. About the only time I don't like having 4 bedrooms together is when we have visitors that are loud or get up a lot at night, then they wake everyone up. I've lived in houses with both scenarios and for us personally, I like the 3 bedrooms up, bedroom and bath in the basement for guests. I'd probably only consider the basement bedroom a bedroom for our teenager. I have no problems with the laundry in the basement - especially if its nicely laid out. We lived in a house with the laundry on the main floor - right off the living room. It was was in a closet - very cramped and loud. You couldn't run them if you wanted to watch tv, there was no space to fold clothes or even hang dry delicates. I would have preferred the space be a closet instead of a washer/dryer. The real kicker for us was the washing machine over flowed and when we replaced it with a new one the closet no longer fit the new size washer's - so we couldn't close the closet doors and you always looked in the laundry room. Our family is 2 adults and 2 kids - so the 2 up and one down works. Family is all upstairs. Guests have private quarters in the basement (its well light and a nice space). Friends have 2 adults and 3 kids - they moved out of a house with 3 levels that had 3 bedrooms on the top floor and one in the basement because they didn't want to be separated that much from each other. Their new place they had to convert a small room off the master that was used as an office into a bedroom - but this allowed them to have the entire family on one level. The guest room and laundry are in the basement.[/quote]
