    I’m in the USA in a house built pre-1900s. Our washing machine is in a nook off the kitchen (as in the same room, but in the corner). Growing up our washing machine was in the bathroom. From a plumbing standpoint it makes a lot of sense to have the washing machine in the same area as other plumbing.
