eHelp with my old, water damaged kitchen

Hi everyone,

 

I need help please with my small kitchen and some changes I need to make to it. It is U-shaped with open doorways on either side, with a wall at the back as well which currently houses my fridge and some cupboards and a window over the sink space. I am unable to knock out the wall next to the dining room due to strata rules (lame) so I need help creating a functional space that is light so that it seems bigger than it is (this is a 3x bed house so would be great to suit a growing family if I were to sell). Pictures enclosed showing the current state + layout/measurements. I've had a go on the Kaboodle planner however the sizing of many of the cabinets/pantry are too large for my space so I am not sure how that would affect my budget if I need to get customised items. I'd love to have a combined oven/cooktop, space to house my microwave, have a pantry and cupboards for plates/glasses, more bench top space and a liquor cabinet as well if possible (pull out at the bottom with room on top to house wine glasses etc). I currently have bamboo flooring which I can't change as it flows throughout my house into the dining & living room. Any recommendations/comments for a novice would be great - budget would possibly be $5k-$10k. Thank you so much in advance.

Wow @redracer01 would never have thought of that configuration and I love the position of the wine cooler and so glad a dishwasher fits! I’ve booked in my kaboodle at home session and will definitely show them this :smile:
