What is the distance between the counters (sink/stove)?

9 years ago

I have a really narrow kitchen that I'm wanting to remodel. This is the first kitchen I've seen that has a narrow walkway like mine.

Good morning,

I'm not sure what the distance is between the counter tops, typically we try to maintain 42" alleys. However, we have gone to 36" in some cases. Traffic patterns and usage has alot to do with determining what can work. I hope that helps?

Yes, thank you. Mine is 42" which seemed on the small side to me but I guess it's more common than I thought.

Hi guys, Leelee we are definitely doing the vintage bits on the wall. We actually have some vintage cereal boxes that we are planning on displaying on the shelves (filled with cereal of course)!. Sarainitaly - I'm investigating thenIkea planner but it's painful to work (or maybe it's just me!). Here's a pic of the walls totally painted green now. Think the shelves will look great along with some pictures dotted around. It's the cabinets now that will b a pain! BTW it was pure enthusiasm that stopped me waiting until the water heater came off the wall to paint - lol. I will have to paint the patch when it's off.

HI -- If one of those very modern open style vanities that have a full formed sink top was used instead of the two separate pedestal sinks , that might work and not spoil a house sale . The tops come in various sink arrangements such as one big trench or two formed ones and they have top counter space . The sink tops are a feature but on an open fancy frame base made of metal or wood. And the sink tops are varied made out of formed glass or concrete or porcelain or stone . Very cool looking .

I would still do an island. You have the space. I hate having my stove against the wall. You get boxed in and forget about two people working at once. How about stove in island, fridge all the way down to the right? You don't want the fridge to interrupt work space. You will end up w two too-small spaces instead of one nice functional one. We had an island with a downdraft Jenn-air stove-worked quite well for most needs.

Hi, I would appreciate some advice. We wish to redesign our kitchen (230x270cm). I've attached a floor plan of our ground floor. The 230cm wall between the kitchen and living area currently has a narrow service hatch (40x100cm). The other 230cm wall has a large window with sink, dishwasher and washing machine beneath. What do you think would make best use of the space: (a) current layout minus service hatch, (b) open up service hatch to ceiling and place banquette in living area (c) knock the wall between living room and kitchen, and close up the current door-way into the kitchen (converting this area to counter space, making it a U shaped kitchen). Thank you for any advice
