Extension advice, placement of kitchen
Comments (22)Another reason for not flipping the design. If the kitchen is near the sitting room, the kitchen and all its goings on, is the first thing that people will see when entering the new extension. If the kitchen is on the north east side of home, it is not on show as the first room seen. The comfortable distances for lounge dining and kitchen, in my opinion are as follows: Kitchen including island, allow 3 metres in width, really depends on the width of the island. 3 metres is a 950 width island, with a 1300 walkway between back cabinets and island. So these spaces are adjustable by maybe 200mm Dining, allow 3 metres in width. If your table in 1100mm wide, plus enough room for chairs to be pulled out, and for people to walk around the table. Lounge room, what ever is left from your 9485mm from plan....See MoreKitchen layout fridge help

Comments (12)If you're currently "finishing" your ensuite and already have the door in place, the plumbing for the toilet is surely in place. Depending on where the pipes go it may be expensive to shift the toilet position. You can easily buy a toilet that would fit.

Comments (22)a have to suggest keeping the dreaded corner cabinets where generous out of the way corner counter is ideal for parking ready to use appliances and, if you ask your cabinet maker about a 1050x 1050 corner base cabinet with 45cms doors, you will find the space underneath is ideal for storing big less used appliances and the wider doors make access easier and your fabulous Falcon stove deserves pride of place and that still allows plenty of space for tall pantry, glass fronted and plain doors for wall cabinets and drawers all around but you might consider 750 wide drawers next to the sink and use part of the island for under bench out of sight freestanding bins beneath single cutlery drawers but the island needs to be narrower to allow for adequate walking space regardless of where you place the door to the sitting room...See MoreCandice C

6 years agolast modified: 6 years agoHi there your place reminds me of ours, just very quickly sketched ansdidea for layout off kitchen/pantry/ family/study/computer. Adding a photo of the kitchen in our house before we bought it, blue suede effect wall/blind/tiles/knobs and hanging lamp it was dark and ugly, the RH wall blocked any light coming from the other side
. My rough plan keeps the plumbing as is and doors, i will do a more detailed idea of what I suggested tomorrow, The desk in the family room would be lovely under the windows this is also a computer space for family and students plus a great pantry for storage
The photo's of the new area are over coloured cheers

6 years agoHi there, it's not pretty but I think you will get the idea, nothing is to scale you can get the kitchen companies or Bunnings/ikea to do this for you at no cost.
Keeping the windows and doors to save money. If you would like a second sink that shouldn't be a problem for you to access plumbing. The Pantry can be with or without doors, sliders or opening. I have marked two options for the fridge. You could possibly allow an opening or glass next to the stairs and between the Pantry and the fridge wall oven to allow extra light back into the stairway. The study computer desk under the windows is a lovely spot and great for when you are preparing meals and need to keep an eye on family computer use/study, also good for looking up recipes.
