Which water does the valve in house supply?

If hot, u can cap the cold on washer and use just the one from house. This is not a good idea because u will not be able to wash delicate things that need warm water.

If u have a sink near by, u can get an adapter for the sink faucet and use that for washer.

The correct fix is to run the other water line that u need.

Good luck
