Hello there! I need some help or advice on a home we have purchased. The property is beautiful (lake front). The home was built backwards… (literally). You drive up directly to the back door and enter through the kitchen, and the front/entry comes into the living room on the backside which is facing the lake. I would love some help/advice on getting this to flow better.

Here are some of the things we would love to do differently.

1. create a powder room off of the first level bathroom and shrink the existing bathroom down and enter through the master bedroom

2. my husband despises the laundry in the bathroom and I do not like it in the kitchen- we would love to put it upstairs possibly? or create some sort of space in the downstairs in the closets but one has a sloped ceiling under the stairs

3. we want to take the load bearing wall out from the kitchen to the living room and take out that horrible brick. So we need help with the appliance placement since the refrigerator is currently on that wall by itself.

4. we also considered adding an entry type room with a powder room/laundry combo but thought this would be counter productive with opening up the floor plan but attached photo for review

info to know- we are small contractors so moving the plumbing and/or electrical is not a huge deal but obviously the less the better if possible (like keeping toilets close to one another).

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!
