The Bay Window is a show stopper! - Excuse my naivete but did you need to get a permit for the floor to ceiling bay window? -- is it similar to "bumping" out a room which I read can be very expensive.

The window adds architectural interest and complements the classic kitchen perfectly.

Thanks for your question. This was a site finished floor. I believe it was a walnut tone, stain manufacturer info is not on file I'm afraid... I hope this helps.

Unfortunately I do not have another photo, but there is a small moulding running along the back edge of the seat. You can see a bit of it at the right edge in the photo.

Thanks for your question. Sorry for the delayed response...just back from vacation. I presume you are referring to the island? The island is stained maple. The perimeter is a painted mdf.

What Houzz contributors are saying:

Steven Corley Randel, Architect added this to How to Add a Window Seat

Kitchen. What kitchen would not benefit from a large window like this, letting in natural light all day long? Notice that although the ceiling of the bay is separate, the bay does have its own walls. This indicates that structure needed to be addressed. But with the structural changes, the homeowners gained extra storage; note the drawers designed into the window seat.

Toronto Interior Design Group added this to How to Create a Wonderfully Inviting Window Seat

A bench built into a bay window will typically have an angled shape that doesn’t allow for a full width of standard rectangular drawers. In this case, the choice comes down to a flip-up top or a smaller set of drawers. The option that allows easier access is usually the more practical option — otherwise you might not ever bother to take out those items you’ve stored.
