    Could you block up the the door to the understairs cupboard  and create access to the space in a different part of the house such as the hallway ? at the moment there are lots of doors so it's a very busy looking space.

    Also does the sink need to be under that window ? if it was under the other window or between them you would have more worksurface near the hob for food prep etc.
    Interesting ideas thanks, at the moment I have a badly designed kitchen small utility room and a closet room, I plan to move closet room to other side of wall back of what is now a garage and remove wall to utility my plan shows the aftermath hence why it’s odd.
    yes the sink could be moved to other window hadn’t thought about that and yes I could enter the underneath of the stairs from the garage which will eventually be a room.
    This is my first experience of planning and I’m not enjoying it at all, it’s always done before I turn up my respect for architects and designers have taken an upward turn!
    Maybe, just once, someone will call me 'Sir' without adding, 'You're making a scene.'

    Kitchen planners will design for free and recoup the cost if the design secures a purchase, simples.

    Eta: I started last July after my bathrooms were finished, in the full knowledge that it wouldn't happen for a year. Its incredible how quickly time flies!
