Would you see a laundry room off of a bathroom as a good thing?

It would be off a second floor full "kids" bath and would be in it's own separate room but only accessible through that bathroom.

Opinions?

Good is, at best, a relative term.

They're very practical and get put in every day.
Do it right or be sure it was done right if buying an existing one.

I would not like laundry access to be through a bathroom....
especially a kids' bathroom that could be in used when I want to do laundry.

I figured it might work out well because our kids are getting older and do most of their own laundry. Therefore, it is upstairs and usable by everyone. Other option is in the master closet, but then the kids would have to walk through our room to do laundry.

suggestions??

I'm really stodgy when it comes to rooms-through-rooms, so I would never field such a design.

is their bathroom accessable to any other wall where you could open it up and and put on some closet doors? or is there a linen closet up there that can be turned into a laundry closet?
my laundry is upstairs in the hall. it is a new build, but it is literally 2 doors that open up. you dont step inside a room--its just a closet.

I agree with this but in the case of a little used laundry room, I would not have an issue.

Given your 1 options, not in master closet!

Some of the higher end homes have several laundry rooms. If you have the space why not put machines in both locations?
