Full house upgrage with 4x4x3 meter extension.

9 years ago

New (to us) house here in the Netherlands, total upgrade from the bottom up. 11 months of work and all our money spent. Almost Christmas, family on booked to come over from Scotland. Simply can not find bar stools high enough for our new granite breakfast bar / bar. (pictures to follow, the Dutch do it great over here) Any suggestions anyone?? Nice site, some amazing kitchens. Ours is small, but with the AGA i hope we fit in.

Some barstools have an adjustable height mechanism. What is the height of your bar area?

Just laid the wooden floors, so hard to say. The top of the bar comes to 49 inches, or 1250cm. Just under nipple hight. Not a great hight to eat your dinner. Adjustable or not, we need high ones. Thank you Carolyn Albert.

Is there no chance at all that you can lower your bar height to counter height? Usually this offers a bigger look to the entire kitchen.

So you didn't think about this before you set the unusual height of the bar? I suggest you have some custom made.

So, at that counter height, you need bar stools of about 39". Ikea has some, though without photos, I have no idea if the style works.

No, never thought of that. We were too busy wondering how deep to dig that hole. Thanks marilynellis.
