That looks like a wall you see straight from the entry and probably gives some sense of ‘entry’ separate from the ‘kitchen’. Very odd layout so yes please post a dimensioned floor plan. That outside left corner looks structural but hard to say without more info.

what would be your plan to fix the floor where the wall had been?

Did you start the demo already?

does this help patricia......

thank you...

any help ill take

Stillvery confused about the kitchne layout so maybe a bit of info about how you use that space . As for the wall I thinkit needs to sty to give some seperation but coming into the cooking area of a kitchen is really strange . Maybe it makes sense where you live so a bit mor einfo maybe . For me if I was going to spend money on this I would vhange the entry and use the space where the cooking is now as the entry and have a whole new kitchen where the DR is now and have a really nice designed galley kitchen with a nice DR where the kitchen is now and a proper entry too

Is it two kosher kitchens? Unusual layout to the two diagonal kitchen areas. I'd definitely leave the wall in place-acts as a buffer to keep people at the door from being greeted by the first kitchen. I'd probably create a longer wall to block the side kitchen with the island if it was my space.

so just purchased the home and the layout is not ideal but wanted your opinions on that initial wall and how to make the kitchen more unified... i was thinking if I enlarged the small island this could help make more of a kitchen. Also see the opening above the main sink dont you think i should dry wall that opening...

last question should I make kitchen opening larger by taking wall out to the right off sink?

need help:) and suggestions

more demo will start next week....

thanks for advise

I think it’s hard to re-do a kitchen layout before you’ve worked in the space for a while —

if it were me I’d wait on layout changes and enjoy the new home for 6 months or so and keep track of what you like and don’t like

Also see the opening above the main sink dont you think i should dry wall that opening...

I would not drywall that area above the main sink.

Do you entertain? How would you like to interact with your guests from the kitchen area?

Why are you starting demolition when you don’t have a plan down yet? I’d suggest slowing things down a bit so you don’t make mistakes.

After seeing the plan I’d be inclined to make a U kitchen in the center and then convert the area by the front window to an office, a pantry or a combo of the two with a built in desk along the window wall and pantry closets along the garage wall.

So with that suggestion you’d actually be extending that entry wall and not removing it.

so the demolition happened because of damage due to the hurricane in Florida so have this opportunity to buy and start some changes since it was hit. thinkdesignlive - could you draw your suggestion of what a u shape kitchen would look like. a desk and pantry combination is a great idea do you have a design idea how that can work(picture) I'm very visual so hard for me to see . thank you so much for all these suggestions. I was going to keep the wall in entry to kitchen but maybe take it in a little for more open concept if I have the flooring....

do you suggest I open the other area from kitchen entry to dinning room?

thank you again

I would leave the walls you have for now - I will try to work up a sketch.

This is what I was describing. The hardest part in this scenario is getting the range properly vented.

And, obviously there could be closets to the right of the pantry (instead of shelves/cabinets) if that would function better for you. Your existing plan that had the kitchen broken up into two separate areas just isn't functional. Keeping it tight to the middle but opening it up more to the dining room would be the better investment.
