I think the fact bi fold doors always end up wobbly means I'm going for cabinets.
I like the idea of a bit of an open space rather than creating a narrow corridor (although maybe that could be nice too?) but the main issue is there is no natural light so it would just be a large cupboard rather than a real room.

Agree on bi-fold doors, not getting wobbly one is doable but expensive.
You could go with a sliding or pocket door?
Make sure you get a quiet washing machine anyway. What will this be above, your kitchen? Maybe think about putting some soundproofing on the floor, it's much cheaper, easier and more effective to put it down then put a floor on top than to do it from underneath and even quiet machines have to spin...
I was thinking of integrated dishwashers and so on where you don't have to open a door to open another door tbh...
I think I might be tempted to just put a stud partition wall and a proper door in, it would keep the noise of the washer/dryer in which would be important to me.
