Single Girl Needs Help w/ Weird Kitchen Layout in New Home Purchase
Comments (26)@ dan1888 Thank you for the feedback. I will keep that in mind. @ jck910 I need the space because I do expect to have grand-children in the next five years (son and DIL). Also, I work from home. Thus, a home office. is needed and I have a literal gym (pretty much anything you can find at a chain gym (Lifetime Fitness, 24 Hour Fitness, etc....), I have in various rooms now and in my garage. I couldn't find a home that could accommodate the exact space I wanted and the homes are skyrocketing here. When I say in my budget. I just meant the price of the home. Not counting the budget I have for making modifications. @ mama goose_gw zn6OH Great idea as well. Thank you for the image. Works better since I'm a visual person! @ herbflavor Yes. There are amenities. One it's a gated master planned community (pools, parks, biking trails, amenity center, splash pad, etc) in a fantastic part of town. It's also a Smart Home. I was specifically looking for a gated community. My original intention was to put my office in the "formal dining room" area. However, that is the location of my current home office and with Amazon Prime deliveries and barking dogs. I had to rethink. Hence, getting rid of the breakfast nook. I have never planned to have two tables in the home. I do like your suggestion. Since I personally have two contractors friends, I knew if I didn't find the exact house I wanted, I modify and ensured I had cash reserves. @Helen Very good feedback. Thank you. @bry911 Wow....more great ideas and feedback. @Chess-yeah that's me The idea was to put an island there instead of a breakfast nook. I don't feel I need it now. From the front door you actually see the formal dining because of the wall that separates the kitchen from the formal dining room. So if you were at the front door. To the immediate right is a 1.5' - 2' wall, where I could perhaps put a plant or something (don't know). Then you take about 2 - 3 steps and you see whatever is in the formal dining room. Once you take another 2 - 3 you can maybe seen the kitchen. But, because there is a column there, it isn't a clear sight line. @functionthenlook Your comments do resonate with me. @benjesbride And the great feedback keeps coming. Thank you so much! @Sophie Wheeler Couldn't agree more. Especially, if the "budget" didn't include modification money. I hope I didn't miss replying back to anyone. It was my first post and I didn't see a reply button with any of your post. This has been the most amazing feedback. Truly thought provoking, which is appreciated....See MoreGuest bathroom layout is weird
Comments (11)Mark's changes are so much better! Everything about it is better: more efficient use of space; bigger, more functional vanity; toilet near the window. This is the second bathroom you have posted with really wonky window locations. I know you said that they couldn't be moved or they would look weird from the outside (though one has to wonder if other window placements are also wonky from the inside). In both cases, I would give a very, very hard look at changing the windows. Framing can be changed now - at a cost of course, but it can be done. Living with really poor bathroom design for the life of the house - that seems too high a price to pay....See MoreCombined bedroom/home office space: rug placement & other layout tips?

Comments (5)@course411 thanks so much! i found a sketching program and was able to put in the dimensions. Now leaning towards one of the below two options. if anyone has views on their functionality I’d appreciate it (i think i prefer the second option with the tub on the short wall)...See MoreReal Path
