I want to give them the benefit of the doubt and say perhaps it's a deep freezer that is only opened occasionally, and I guess is pretty well sealed as long as it's closed.

Terrible photos listed by estate agents/realtors that are so bad they’re funny.
Posting guidelines.
Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:
the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)
the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)
the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)
the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.
Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.
Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.
Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content
Rules.

I think in the US we typically prefer for them to be out of sight. Houses here often have a small laundry room specifically for the washer and dryer. Barring that, they are usually tucked away in a closet (apartments or smaller houses) or in the garage or basement.
I wonder if this is one of those things the US benefits from having most of our homes built after indoor plumbing. A not insignificant portion of European homes were built before prolific indoor plumbing, no? So when homes were retrofitted for plumbing, it made sense it keep it all located in one place and then it became the style for all homes.
