Comments (27)Ditto on the big mudroom. Some place for sports equipment (balls, shoes, helmets, pads...) I only have two kids but they're multi-sport, especially DS, so we have shoes for multiple sports, plus baseball bats, football pads and helmet (which get stinky) and myriad other stuff that ends up by the backdoor (in the mudroom.) (DS is 14 but already 6'4" so storing all those shoes is no small thing, pun intended.) Extra space in the garage for joggers and strollers when they're little, and for bikes and maybe golf clubs when they're bigger. Also a handy storage space (basement or garage) for holiday decorations. Seems like a small thing but at least in my neighborhood everyone has Christmas/ winter holiday lights; lots of Halloween decorations (kids love those); stuff for Easter, etc. (And room for yard work stuff like a lawn mower, hose reels, shovels, etc.) If you don't have one yet, you may end up with a pet so space for bowls, food, etc. (probably in the mudroom) will help. Ditto the idea of a powder room near the backdoor / family entrance. You don't want kids tromping through your house to use the restroom, and if you're like me you DO want to have lots of kids at your house so you know what they're up to. (I have teens.) If you like to have people over, it's nice to have easy access from the kitchen to the outside for grilling, outdoor happy hours, etc. Homework space is interesting, at least in my house. We have a 'home work room' with a printer and a desk for each kid. But DD prefers to do her homework at the kitchen counter which makes me a bit nuts because I'm constantly clearing away papers. She's in high school and they have a TON of books and papers. We have a finished basement, which is great for when one of the kids wants to hang out with friends or when they were younger and had sleep overs. It's also where I store craft stuff which we don't use so much anymore but did a ton when they were little. Somewhere on this board was a thread of 'what would you do differently' that might help with ideas. And for whatever it's worth... we use our warming drawer in the kitchen all the time. As the kids get older their schedules can be all over the place, especially if they're in sports. We try to always have a family dinner, but sometimes end up with DS's plate in the warming drawer if he has a long/late practice. We also use if for pizza nights, happy hours, holiday dinners, etc., so I don't consider it an 'extra' - I use mine often....See MoreWhat kind of bar would look and work best from the other side?
Comments (38)Marti- We went through that too. Thought about every possible potential use of the space and got discouraged by people who insisted we needed to have an island or nothing at all. I understand the sentiment, but different things work for different people. I mentioned it took us a year to go through the layout/design phase, right? We considered everything. I am going to try to attach a copy of an ideabook from houzz where I collected some photos to help me decide what to do with the beam/bar area. I liked some of the photos and disliked others, but kept them all to help me think it through... I have some other pictures, not on houzz that I will try to attach separately. Here is a link that might be useful: Houzz ideabook...See More- 11 years ago
