The children could maybe still be locked together in a bigger room, but the utility room is amazing. I have to quote Yvonne’s nice list again [we should maybe pin it somewhere] – all for the 5m² utility room, where the tech has already been deducted (it alone needs the 5m² – at least!):
I also think you should go for about 150m². Less than that is too tight for 5 people.
it also needs storage space: broom, mop, vacuum cleaner, handheld vacuum, window cleaner, dryer for wool/sports/hand wash, dirty laundry container, space for ironing board and basket with clean laundry, washing machine, dryer (preferably stacked), cleaning supplies, electrical kitchen appliances (fondue set, roaster, deep fryer, baking pans), preserving jars, freezer or beverage cooler, shoe cleaning supplies, yellow sack, beverage bottles (cases, juice), a few groceries, bags and sacks for shopping, decoration stuff (2 boxes Christmas decorations, 1 box Easter, 1 box general), wrapping paper, office folders, writing stuff, office supplies, infrared lamp, medication, photo equipment, hobby stuff (badminton set, fishing rod and such must stay outside), manual tools, drill, cordless drill, a few paint cans, white paint, brush and roller, electronics, light bulbs, batteries, vases, spare cutlery, picnic basket, small step ladder, 2-3 flower pots, empties, dog food, cat litter box, 15 liters emergency water, sewing machine, fabric scraps, plant spray bottle, suitcase, travel and sports bag, carpet and tile remnants, etc. You can probably exclude 2-3, but very likely I forgot some things as well.
