Kitchen Design - Oven Location

Would like to get thoughts from others on whether it is feasible to put a double oven next to a corner in the kitchen? We are building our home trying to put the refridgerator, microwave and oven on one wall in order to maximize the space for the rest of the kitchen, but this would involve putting the oven in the corner. We have been told that it might be a bad idea to do this b/c then you cannot get at the oven from the right side (blocked by the counter).

Does anyone have this situation or advice?

    Hi Ryan! In this circumstance, I suggest a corner oven placement. Not as you have drawn, but actually angled across the corner. You have plenty of room to do this in your space.

    Best arrangement is to recess the tall cabinet so that its back corners nearly touch the two walls, then angle the adjacent countertops to meet the oven cabinet's side-wall return panels. Eliminated this way are the awkward workability and "dead end" look that a tall cabinet right at a corner creates.

    This would also give you a little more wall length left of the oven cabinet, perhaps to let you put a small pantry left of your refrigerator - pulling it into a bit more convenient location, and bringing it off the end of your run.

    I like your idea to put "the big stuff" all at one end. I also might slip the sink and window just a little back into the room, to balance the upper cabinets left and right. Is that big block in the middle an island? Mark

      Since we're building the best I have at this point is the plans, which I have attached. The oven location is in the top left corner of the plan. The microwave would be in between the oven and the refrigerator, but isn't identified here on the plan.

      Ryan, I agree with Mark that a corner set-up is the way to go. It will eliminate one more turn in the cabinet run which would have required a lazy Susan type bottom cupboard, which isn't the most ideal storage solution. Also, it adds an interesting angle to the kitchen,which you could capitalize on if you want by shaving off a smidge of the two corners on the island so that you get a repetition of this angle in the space. It will also make manoeuvring in that corner a little easier.

      I'm curious to know why you aren't doing an oven with microwave on top - or is this a double wall oven?

      Yes, Ryan... many nicer oven-micro-wave combination appliances now have an upper oven that does convection baking, broiling, crisping - in addition to nuking stuff. (The phot I sent, though, has a double oven, with micro-drawer just peeking into view at lower right. Mark

      Personally I am not a big fan of placing appliances at the corner.
