Thanks so much! Here is the layout for our bathroom. It looks like I can fit a 33" cabinet (a 12" bank of drawers with a 21" door) and place the sink on the 21" side. I think it will work. There will be one large mirror framed with mosaic tile that covers the wall (mosaics will run a 4" frame around the mirror). With the sink off center I can do without the backsplash on the side wall too. Now to speak with the contractor as the rough plumbing last week before they laid the subfloor earlier this week. I'm essentially shifting the sink about 3" from the original plan so hopefully it's not too much of a pain to do this. Thanks!!

colorlady's right - depends on where your drain is. My faucet is not centered on the drain, and I find that a minor annoyance. Just something I didn't think of beforehand.

i had it centered because i didn't know! d'oh!!! but we moved and are going to do another kitchen remodel and my custom 60" soapstone sink will have 3 drains, set to the back. it doesn't really make a big difference for the sink but as far as using the space underneath in the cabinet...big difference. our old porcher apron front had it off centered and i could fit a lot of stuff underneath in the cab.

Thank you for your comments. I thought I'd share a change of layout plans that I'm pondering considering I didn't like either option with sink in the bay window/dishwasher layout. Spoke to the contractor and we think it's easier to leave the sink where it is, widen the window above it to be the pass thru awning window, widen the current U shape, leave the bay window as is and the 'eat in' kitchen table area. So I'll be down a dining room but that's ok, it's only a few times per year MAYBE that I entertain and need more space. I can put up a temporary dining table elsewhere (or switch over the den to dining room in the future) or make that circular table an extendable to an oval one. I may add a built in bench to the bay window now or down the road. In this layout, it's a little awkward as to what to put in the niche where the pantry is in my drawing below. It's not full height in there and it's currently where I have a sideboard but with my dining room no longer being there after the reno, it should be something else. Pantry cupboards, maybe a little desk with open shelves above? maybe a beverage/coffee station with mini fridge. I know it's a little awkward having the pantry outside the kitchen. That's the only thing that bugs me about this layout. Other option is to put the pantry to the right of the fridge. In my current kitchen this is where there is a desk and open upper shelves that definitely needs to go. It's where all the 'junk' goes like recipe books, telephone, pet food, meds, etc. so I'm drawn to putting lowers and uppers there to hide all the stuff. But it also makes sense to make this the pantry area so it's more accessible than having to walk around the penisula when prepping. So that's the dilemma/question...where to put the pantry. And what to use that niche for. Note, that niche does have a direct sightline to front door so people will see it when they walk in the front door. The area by fridge is hidden from view facing back of house Thanks in advance.
