I would definitely line the sink up under a window, or it will look very off. Also if you are going to keep cabinetry on the garage wall, have it end at the wall so you don’t have a bump out that you have to walk around coming in from the garage!

That is unfortunate about the garage stairs and door to laundry. That really is a great mud space. 

yeahh, i agree. i just learned about what a mudroom was today. and thought to myself, yeah, that IS something a house needs. who wants to walk in and just have to lay their stuff down in some random place?

so you saying...put it all the way against the wall....and then move the door(from kitchen to laundry) to the laundry room up a few inches?? let me try that. ACTUALLY no youre talking about the cabinets to the left....like near the family room. that lil bump. ok.

will for sure line up the sink with window..

The laundry room off the garage is perfect as a laundry/mud room. Don’t move it! It’s an asset for sure!

you know...that area is odd. it has a door going outside to the garage, but no steps, and if you put steps there...then you will hit them when you drive a car inside the garage. totally odd. let me see if i can find actual pics.

Hi Eron, that looks like a pretty spacious house! Without knowing how much you are looking to spend or what plumbing/electrical you want to move, I would say absorb the “eat in kitchen” to be part of the kitchen. Is it possible to move the fridge to the longer wall that abuts the laundry room? Wrap the counter down under the window to meet the sink. If you want an island, delete the peninsula and instead of putting the fridge there, (like in your updated sketch) put the stove there. How much countertop did you add next to the sink and on other side? It *seems* like you would have room for an island now, in line with the end of the kitchen. 
What software are you using for your sketches?

hey, i THINK i just uploaded SOME of what you said! i actually did that before i read the new messages in the thread, so it might not have everything you said in it. but let me read your post fully and see if i can understand, and try to make it happen.

im using home designer 2022. you cant save anything with the free version.

im thinking i might not need the island anymore.

now im thinking to myself...why the heck...is the laundry room way over there. and now i wanna move it. but...i dont think that would be smart.......being that im on a limited budget.

This house was built about 75yrs ago, and Im wanting to redo the kitchen...but I am not really sure how I could change that layout.

That area to the right of the kitchen looks like it was for a small table...I guess to eat breakfast at or something.

Do you see how I could fit some type of island in the layout?

Remove it entirely.

 any idea on the cost for that? i have a fireplace that is on the main level and on the basement straight up thru the middle of the house!! taking of lots of space!!! big and brick!

How is it ok to charge PMI when a mortgager already has 20% equity in the house when they buy it? Where is the logic in this? In a foreclosure, is the lender not entitled to that 20% of equity?

Sounds like the lenders are in bed with the insurance companies. lool.
