    As you do now have a 'spare' wall, then thats where you need an eating area, with either breakfast bar, or small table.

    Agree a dishwasher (not that ours ever got used).

    & don't forget the water supply, assuming the fridge (& it is a MUST HAVE as far as I'm concerned!!) is ice/water dispensing.

    The space where the dishwasher is going can be seen on the second pic, third cab along.

    The wall you cant see does have a breakfast bar there at the mo but its going.

    Kitchen installer said they will run a water pipe under the floor to the fridge.

    tbh the cabinets where the sink/dishwasher i want a false drawer but you cant show that on the program, although im told you can specify this when ordering.

    Will post up a detailed floor plan later along with pictures of current setup......this is turning into hell sooooo difficult designing this sort of thing :o

    Yes for the dishwasher, but would not waste money on the ice/water dispensing :D

    Put the rad beneath the breakfast bar , or

    Leave the rad alone and put the breakfast bar above :rotfl:
    Would give better access ???

    I put my breakfast bar in front of window ( where the sink trad. goes)
    would rather take time over breakfast , looking over garden and rush washing up.
    Sink was crammed into corner ....... if it does not go into dishwasher , stays dirty!

    Your plans are great . I mean . its easy now to follow the ideas.

    What about moving first wall cupboard on left of door to the diagonally opp. corner ,
    seems an ideal space for cupboard.

    And no its not a contradiction of my first post , the window is a lot closer .

    Now I am about to upset you .

    I like the kitchen as it is ,
    The open shelving is better than 'my' corner cupboard

    Leave everything alone. just run a work top/ breakfast bar along wall and return over rad. Then move rad under long run of work top
    Support breakfast bar with base units ( only ) to the right end . Breakfast 'pole' to the left


    clear as mud:rotfl:
