True Handleless Tall cupboards in Matt Dust Grey housing washing machine and tumble dryer. Quartz worktops with with undercount single bowl sink and chrome tap.

This updated and improved utility room features dark green flat front cupboards with chrome pulls and an oak worktop. A separate washer and dryer are included, along with a single stack wine fridge. The previous Belfast sink and tap were still in good condition so could be reused in smart new housing. The floating oak shelves provide an organised space for functional and decorative items. A new LVT floor in mid-Oak was laid throughout the downstairs and a heated towel rail completes the space.

A compact but highly functional utility corridor finished in a calming palette of soft whites and lavenders. Full-height bespoke cabinetry lines one side, offering ample concealed storage with simple painted knobs that echo the understated aesthetic. Overhead, a ceiling-mounted pulley airer maximises vertical space—an elegant nod to traditional utility solutions. The patterned tiled flooring introduces a touch of decorative interest underfoot while also providing durability and ease of maintenance. Thoughtful details like brass door handles and the considered placement of lighting make this hardworking space feel quietly refined.

This Laundry had plenty of room but no storage. The clients wanted to keep the existing laundry trough cabinet so we added additional cabinets to the right. Room has been left for a larger fridge when it's time to upgrade. There is already a built in broom closet so there was no need to allow for a tall cabinet. Cabinets finished in Arborite Designer White Satin. Benchtop Duropal Pale Lancelot Oak.

When the doors are closed this handle fits neatly under the 10mm x 10mm rolled edge laminate bench top.
