This end of the kitchen is the workhorse. Most of the appliances were kept within the original kitchen footprint to keep costs down. The range was in the corner with little prep space on either side. Now, it's on an exterior wall which allows the ventilation to work like a dream, there is abundant countertop space on both sides and all the tools for cooking are within easy reach. The sink was moved under the window and because of the header, a flyover panel in the same material of the cabinets was added to connect the far wall cabinet to the rest of the space.
