Comments (9)I don't think your current kitchen plan is going to work. Your current kitchen plan may end up a bit tight... how much space between the open dishwasher or oven and the opposite cupboards? I estimate that to be 40-50cm... I think you may end up with a one person kitchen. No need for a big pantry. 2c.... keep the toilet where it is. keep the study where it is. Draw a horizontal line across from your existing toilet wall and chop a big chunk off the living space (or what was the formal dining). The new space is your butlers pantry. Slide the entry door to the right by 60-90cm. Your new butlers pantry is 3.2x2.2m. Put your sink against the toilet wall - and the dishwasher. You have easy access for plumbing with the WC utilities. Then you just need a small sink in the kitchen next to the stove for filtered water and washing your vegies etc. Put your fridge against the toilet wall too... and plumb that in. Because by the money you save you can get a fancy new french door fridge with a cold water tap on it......See MoreAny tips for converting a garage into a spare room?

Comments (4)Hi Liss, I 100% echo the above from Retro & MB. Changing function, particularly into dual occupancy territory will trigger a host of knock-on effects including fire rating, energy rating etc...and of course this all comes down to (as always) the B word - Budget You are best to seek professional design advice/service/assistance, and as Retro alluded to, you are at what we call the "feasibility" stage of the project in which project viability and options are explored/teased out. This involves clarification of specific requirements, budget and & contextual and regulatory constraints applicable. Honestly this is way beyond a dilemma forum - experienced/professional input will enable the most effective path forward to avoid the as you put it "going around in circles", which as an aside many people find themselves doing simply because they don't know what they're doing! We do this for a living for a reason, and we have specific services structured for this stage of the process to professionally manage and assist people to achieve high value outcomes. Happy to provide further details, if you are interested in how this all works when approached professionally. Cheers PD :)...See More- 6 years ago
