[quote=Anonymous]I don't think of it as a price point as a square footage point. I live in a small, expensive house and having the laundry in the basement is great - we have a laundry chute and the walk back up with the laundry is not too bad. Seeing what our neighbors have done, I think an upstairs laundry would create too much noise in the bedroom area and would eat up valuable space. I've seen a nice upstairs laundry where it was part of a major addition so they could add the appropriate plumbing, structural over-building and sound insulation. The family also has a maid to do the laundry during the day, so they don't need a full room to pile up dirty laundry and fold clean laundry; they just have the machines in the hallway. The kicker is that the house is a 6000 square foot barn and a basement laundry would put it in a different zipcode than the source of the dirty clothes.[/quote]
