Kitchen layout idea's
The house is a terrace house and I am having the bathroom & kitchen extended & remodeled.
The plan shows rough sizes, but there will be roof lights to the kitchen and patio doors for light.
The owner (my daughter) is a young professional single girl so lots
of wine drinking and entertaining going on!!. There will be a dining table in another room.
I need to have a area for washing machine and tumble drier, kitchen
units with the usual hob, oven, fridge/freezer etc. I would like to get
a breakfast bar for causal eating for 4 people max.
Where does it all fit in??? Thank you.

I've attached a photo of the existing floor plan, we intend removing the conservatory (which is near enough a lean to) and extending the area back to the end wall.

Comments (12)It's really long and narrow, isn't it. I think you have lots of options. The best place to start is with figuring out what you want and need and then working out how to change the house to work for you. It seems like you're coming at it from the position of what is practically possible and then will you like that. This isn't going to give you the best result for you. I understand that you've been speaking with builders about it and they will always give you the most practical solution, and the easiest option. But that might not be what is best for you. Though it might be the cheapest way to alter the building. You don't need to limit yourself to what the builders tell you. You can work with an architect who knows what is possible technically and then simply get builders who will build what you want. It might cost more that way, but it's going to deliver the space that you'll really love instead of feeling like a compromise position that you're having to squeeze yourself into. I hope this is helpful! Jane, i-architect.co.uk...See MoreOpen plan living room and kitchen layout ideas
Comments (12)Given that the wall where the hob is 2 meters in the Kitchen would it help if you have full height units along that wall instead of a few wall units. You can have a fridge freezer then a tall unit to house your oven and or microwave and have a corner sink. or have tall units on either side and have the sink where the hob is currently. that will help increase your storage space and also have a lot of units put in. You could then have a 1.8 meter kitchen island with your hob etc with more storage and breakfast bar etc. if you can extend into the current dining area slightly even 60cm that will help add another tall unit. Presume you already have a toilet under the stairs. You could move the current door at the back which is on one corner to the middle with bifold doors as you will not have any units there. That will give you more light and a view of the garden. you can build a utility room with your washing machine dishwasher and also have a pantry . As it is one open space would try to have a raised dining area even if it is 15cm and drop it back in the kitchen area. That will give a bit of height in the dining area and guests can get a glimpse of the garden even when they are seated beyond the kitchen island… Would recommend a wooden floor running all the way from the living to the kitchen. i would lay it in a Chevron pattern drawing your eyes all the way to the garden. if you raise the floor in the dining area, you can create some clever storage there....See MoreDesign gurus!

Comments (0)Hi I was wondering whether I can have some advice on our kitchen layout. We planned to get our sunroom converted to an extension. Unfo Unfortunatel, we got let down by the contractors we hired who turned out to be professional scammers! Lots of tears and 6 months later, we are ready to get our kitchen done again but leaving the sunroom as is for now. How would you maximise the space? bearing in mind we are ok with the dining table being in the sunroom f. looking forward to all your suggestions! thank you these are suggestions we have received from a builder (just keeping all the units in the ”kitchen” space) : would love a kitchen island, if not a breakfast bar and plenty cupboard space. thanks in advance...See MoreVictorian terrace - kitchen layout ideas
Comments (4)I think the utility planned on design 2 is a counterintuitive idea. Why extend a space only to split it in two again? In my opinion and will isolate the middle room, divide the house in half and devalue your efforts to make it bigger. Given your bathroom is spacious I would put the washing machine upstairs but you could also leave the washer in the kitchen and if concerned about noise intrusion just put it on when you leave for work. And if your music is important to you then why not have the front room as a music room/ living space and the open the middle room up to the largest room at the back?...See MoreA B

6 years agoI think the only way it would work would be to have the kitchen in the middle. It would give her 2 large reception areas front and back though. Depends how much cooking she does!
