Rear Entry/Mudroom
Some of these ideas would work; others not necessary (i.e., since laundry is right there, use it as necessary).

like this floor for rear entry, laundry, etc. like drawers/counter on end OR shelves (for mail, misc in/out stuff, etc.)
good floor for rear entry and laundry (& pantry?)
