With the breaker panel to your rear, exit the utility space and turn right to exit the laundry room. Continue forward until you reach the nook in the wall just past the stairs to your right.
Turn around, walk through the doorway, turn right, walk through the laundry room, and wait by the stairs.
Exit the closet, turn right and walk past the washer and dryer and through the door. Go past the stairs straight and stop at the wall.
