We have a dining room and kitchen and would like to open up wall between them. We'd like to keep cabinets and add an island. Dining room opens up into living room. Not sure of configuration of where refrigerator would go?

Comments (3)Thanks a lot for your prompt reply!! Though your idea is excellent,We cannot keep both the fridge together as it is taking all my work space .I am hardly left with any counter space if you go by dimensions. I will be looking forward to more of your brilliant ideas!!! .Thanks a million once again!...See MoreAwkward Blind Corner in Kitchen--Cabinet Solution?
Comments (16)Thanks, lefty47. This is an older home, and just as One Plan guessed it is a soil stack from the upstairs bathroom. You are probably right that the cost of a custom solution may outweigh the benefits. Another idea I had, along the lines of the worktop bin suggested by One Plan, is a recessed spatula and long-handled utensil holder. I found out that Lee Valley sells motorized tv lift kits like the one used in the video above. It would be a matter of getting the contractor to build the box to go on the lift. I'm still a bit hung up on the idea, though it probably falls into your cost-outweighs-benefit category! I may bring this photo around with me when interviewing prospective contractors, just to see how they answer!...See MorePrep only kitchen island dimensions
Comments (7)I was hoping to have an island, but as I stand in the old kitchen and measure and open oven doors...it feels like it might get in the way. I'll be pushed up against the island when I open up the oven door! I do a lot of cooking. I have 3 ft on one side of the oven and 2 feet between the oven and the prep sink. If I remove the island, there is 8' between the sink/fridge wall and the oven. Perhaps a portable prep station that I can put in front of the pantry wall? Style is farmhouse/country...could custom build a little prep island on casters....See MoreSliding glass door question
