Airing cupboard alternatives/unit

I have a big redundant space on my landing which was a box room before a loft conversion.
I have no airing cupboard and no loft for storage so I was thinking of a tall, freestanding unit for this space to put everything in.

Any recommendations? Every time I look online I can't seem to find anything that doesn't look like a double wardrobe or kitchen unit. Not keen on cube storage either- I have enough of those for kids toys already.

TIA

I like old armoire/ pantry type cupboards from eBay / Facebook for bedding, towels etc

I'd go for bespoke to maximise every inch of storage.

It depends what dimensions you have to play with, and what you have to store. But for general storage, I’d try to get something with drawers on the bottom half and shelves above. Ikea Platsa system can do this.

Another idea - could you move your laundry machines there (if they are currently in your kitchen)? That way you get more kitchen storage, and the noise out of the kitchen.

And spread it all through the house on the landing?

We have a antique linen press.

Look at IKEA Boaxel

I'd get a carpenter in to see what they could build into the space to maximise what you've got, rather than trying to fit a bought unit or shelving there.

Yes sorry the washing machine probably isn’t a great idea. I was picturing in a cupboard but it would have to be a very solid cupboard to block the noise. Ignore!
