So this is the best placement we could come up with…and I think it feels pretty good. I’m also not a big fan of appliances in islands (at least not for how we work in the kitchen). But it’s difficult to decrease that without moving the fridge into the walkway or removing a window, neither of which we want to do. Probably my biggest concern for this layout is the distance between the fridge, range, and sink (the ‘kitchen triangle’). The trade off is that we can only accommodate 36” range, but I’m sure that will be adequate. A lot of you suggested this arrangement and we liked that it would allow us to use the existing cabinetry, both uppers and lowers, without rearranging them, which should save a lot of time and effort on this renovation. This plan shows the range on the opposite side of the kitchen, a change you’ll see in the next option, too. We’re hoping the later addition will provide a spot for the kids to hang out, read, and be nearby without being under foot. So we replaced those elements with some storage and a hangout space (currently shown as ‘bench’). ![]() ![]() Plus, as one commenter mentioned, we don’t have room designated for another backdoor landing spot. We also left off the new outside door, after coming to the realization that we probably wouldn’t use it much. We removed the desk since 95% of people say they’re junk collectors (glad we dodged that bullet!). Option 1 is similar to the floor plan you saw last month but incorporates a few big reworks. And assuming we have the wherewithal and budget to take on this bigger renovation, our kitchen will end up looking similar to this. I’m going to start by saying this is our favorite option. ![]() You can download this plan HERE (we love feedback!).
