Laundry closet space/constraints

Forgive me if this question has been asked/answered elsewhere in this forum.

My laundry closet opening is 60Wx81Hx29D. The washer must be on the right, since the hoses are located on the right side of the closet (not the rear). The dryer is gas. Currently I have the original (2001 era) Whirlpool top-loader and dryer, but am looking to replace with a front-loader, however, both the size of the closet and the gas dryer are restricting me considerably.

If I get a compact 24" set, I will need to hire an electrician to install a 240V circuit and plug.

If I get a conventional sized FL set, they will stick out of the closet, and I will be forced to remove the closet doors. A solution to this would be to install cabinets above the washer & dryer.

I can stick with a TL.

Can anyone else see another solution I haven't found? Thanks!
