Think about your needs. How much hanging space, maybe top and bottom dual rods, tops on the top and skirts or slacks on the bottom. A dresser type storage? Don't forget good lighting. Visit a few closet shops to get an idea of what you want or need.

In most cases Michelle this is done by Sacrifice of a Room next to the Master Bedroom.
You place a Full length Parition in there 3 feet to 8 feet away from the Door, tosse in some Drywall, Soacle the seams and Caulk the Corners, Voila you have not only a Walk In Closet with a Hallway Entry, you also have room remaining in the room for either:
A. Master Lavatory [not to be confused with Master Bath though often it is]
B. Children's Closet
C. Small Laundry room
reliant upon how much room you devite to the Walk In Closet.
My Personal opinion is thus: a Double Pocket Door Closet or Sliding Barn Door Closet is more efficient use of Space than a Walk in Closet. By efficient Use of Space you create a Laundry Room where it Belongs: Nearest to the Place the clothes come off.
