Do the sink and the range line up exactly? I have 55" between my range and my island in the future kitchen plans...but my sink does not line up with it, it's on another leg of the perimeter counter.

Mine is 48" (and the sink is offset from the range).

Yes they line up. Here are the plans

Is there a preference for the sink and range to be offset or line up?

I have a family of 6...we would be "bum to bum" for sure, so I designed mine not to have that. It would be a road block for us.

There are only two of us, but I find swiveling from sink to range rather than having to make a 180 turn is possibly less aesthetic but certainly more convenient and sensible for me. And it doesn't result in a "bum to bum"situation - possibly a "hip to hip" but I'm okay with that :-)

Unless that's a work station sink, where prep is done on an integrated cutting board, more prep work is done beside the sink; so, IMO, it's better to have the prep space offset from the range.

The measurements are difficult to read. As drawn, it looks as if the island is too far from the perimeter--48" to 54" is a good aisle width. Where will you keep dishes?

If those are windows on each side of the range hood, you might consider spacing them so that the hood can be 6" wider than the cooktop. With no adjacent cabinets to help contain the plume of steam and grease, a wider hood will provide a larger capture area. If it hasn't been discussed already, you'll need make-up air for a high-power hood.

Thanks everyone for the info. Great to be able to see pros and cons of each option. Appreciate the suggestions

Mama goose- would having the windows high enough that a splash guard can run under them assist with the grease? I did not think about this issue. Was simply trying to add more natural light to the room.... I’m going to have to look into this some more
