My washer and dryer are front loaders that have the pedestal also to make it easier on your back. Since I am short my kitchen has a lot of large drawers and not as many upper cupboards. I was lucky to put in a small walk in pantry too. I am sure there is more out there that can be done but those were some small changes we made while building.

Mikirk!
It sounds like a wonderful place for an aching back and for nice people to live. ALSO, you have fished me out from appearing entirely foolish.
I owe you big time!
