    Sounds great, TT! Glad it's worked out.
    My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!

    I am going to have it painted and pergo put in the bedrooms before I move in. Later I am having the bathtub removed and a walk in shower with a high toilet. I don’t like the small refrigerator so will remove the cupboard above it and replace all appliances with stainless steel. Once it closes I need to measure to see if the space is wide enough for a refrigerator I want. If not I will buy a apartment size stove which is smaller. You can’t put a turkey in one but I quit cooking them 4 years ago. I am not found of the pillars on the island but they have to stay because they are set in the granite I think. They really made the island too big but nothing to do about that.

    I wish the hutch wasn’t built in the dining room because I have a beautiful antique buffet I would like to put there. I don’t need the storage space. I thought of putting my tv on it but my tv will be too high and hurt my neck. Will probably have to put it in my bedroom which is a bummer.

    Can you remove the built in hutch and put it somewhere else, like the bedroom to make it an office? Then you could use your buffet.

    I could remove it but if they didn’t run the floor under it that’s a problem as the floors are new and expensive. I don’t need the storage space and have some beautiful antiques for the bedrooms. I would just get rid of it.

    I am so happy for you! It's a perfect space for you. Your buffet.I like the tv idea, but understand about the height. Could it go behind the sofa if you put the sofa facing the balcony? Or on that tall wall?

    TT I have ordered apartment sized appliances for my condo. The stove is 24” wide. There is also a smaller stove at 20”, but that is truly tiny and besides few makers are out there for them. The refrigerator is 24”. The dishwasher is 18” .

    Be forwarned that appliances are taking a loooooooong time in these Covid times to come. The delivery date for our refrigerator has been set back twice. That is fine with me since the thing will just sit unused for many months.

    oh also, some appliances are simply not being manufactured in Covid times. Bosch stopped making panel-ready dishwashers in 18” size because that was a specialty item, and they need to focus on main line items.

    This may be an upside of Covid for us simplifiers who do not want 1 million choices in appliances. We now have far less than 1 million choices since the manufacturers cannot turn out all of the choices.


    Of course, I want the specialty items NOW because they best fit into my tiny kitchen.


    I hated the giant size refrigerator that was in that space, it overwhelmed the space.
