Hi Everyone, I would like to renovate my house. The floor plan is as below. I watched the video of "How to create an open plan living room" and found my house's current plan looks similar as the house before renovation in the video. My contractor also suggested to create an open plan area . That means I have to knock down a few walls and change the place of the kitchen, spend at least 20-30k more on the renovation. I would like to spend the money if it worth it. The current kitchen is about 10 years old as the following picture. Should I move the place of kitchen? Does any body have better idea and give me some suggestions. Thanks a lot.
