BUILDING OUT... AND FORWARD
A Mudroom Addition is an Extra Room
A mudroom addition is an extra room or area added to a house that is intended to be used as a space to store and organize outdoor items. Mudrooms are often equipped with hooks and shelves that allow you to hang coats and hats, as well as shelves and cubbies for storing boots and umbrellas. Additionally, many mudrooms come with a laundry area, complete with a washer and dryer, as well as countertops and cabinets for storing laundry supplies and other items. Some mudrooms may even include a sink for washing muddy boots and other items. When designed properly, mudroom additions can be an attractive and practical addition to any home.
