Kitchen remodel, I need feedback!

[Stephen Bennett]

Here is a photo of a house I am going to be remodeling. I want to move the fridge to one of the adjacent walls, and I want to position the stove with a microwave over top of it. I really don't want to frame in a window because then I would have to put siding in place of the window and I will never match the color, so I would then need to paint the exterior. I think the pantry is expendable if I was able to install a small island for cupboard space. Does anyone have some suggestions on other layouts that may work better? Thank you!

To me you are looking at it backwards

When I look at renovating I figure out profit available and base the renovation on that 

Why are you changing it?

To live in?

To sell?  If yes how much will it sell for and how much profit?

To rent? If yes how much rent per month
