Help with kitchen layout IKEA Varde
So we're looking to move the kitchen and have it in the dining room (please ignore the hideous carpet it's not staying!)
I'm struggling with the layout due to the amount of obstacles in the room eg doors, window and open fireplace.
Would you say the room was too small for an island? Do we close up the fire and put the stove in the fireplace?
The whole in the middle wall, should we open up to doors or close up? I'm edging towards closing it up which will then give us an extra wall.
We've bought a free standing kitchen the Ikea Varde for a steal but don't know whether to keep it or sell it and get fitted units.

2 years agoThis dining room is technically wide enough for an island. I agree that you should block up the aperture to the front room. But the chimney is too small to put a hob in it so you should probably remove the chimney breast.
The only think I would add is that by making the largest reception room a kitchen you are left with a modest lounge and a modest dining room (assuming you are turning the kitchen into a dining room)

Might want to find out first if plumbing and extraction can go there. And take in mind either dining area or kitchen will be in a darker area of the house, would not close off the living room opening.
