The Steak and One Veg Kitchen

The time has finally come to update the 'Steak and (not 3 or 2 but...) ONE veg kitchen!!!
As the "before" photos will show, there is only room for cutting one vegetable at a time.I didn't notice this when I bought  unit, (in late 90's)  all I  saw was the Ocean, and how close I was to it!

photo 1: shows 'box-like' kitchen. The wall behind chair and adjacent to it will be demolished.
photo 2:  tiny window showing ocean which will soon  be widened.

photo 3: entrance to 'steak-&-one veg' kitchen, which will have wall behind chair demolished. You can see laundry doorway- this will be bricked in.

photo 4: Current sink & bench.....the new sink & bench will still be along this eastern wall. Therefore saving plumbing costs

photo 5: This is the western wall of kitchen to be be demolished. As you can see, bench space only wide enough to cut  one carrot.. left handed only!


photos 6 + 7: Just left of blue towel will be the new doorway entry to laundry. (which is currently through kitchen). I didn't like carrying wet or dirty washing through lounge/dining rm/kitchen to get to laundry. It makes sense to enter straight from bathroom. This is Greg's design.
