Dining Room Design Dilemma

Removing wall, corner cabinet

5 years ago

We have not met with the contractor yet about this, but I would like to remove this wall between my kitchen and dining room. I have this corner cabinet in the dining room which I love and I really do not want to have to remove it. Our dining room is not that big and I would have nowhere to store all of my China. Has anyone done this?

Just make the opening wider. Don't remove the entire wall. Post a picture of the entire wall.

I made a large cased opening between my dining and kitchen. I have 2 corner hutches I wanted to save for storage plus I just love them. The entire wall is 13 feet wide and the opening is about 7 feet.

Thanks. I don’t have a floor pan available yet. Also I should’ve mentioned that I want to put in a peninsula between the rooms.
