Got it! Looking forward to see the completed kitchen. You will love the coffee/drink bar. I could never be w/o one……keeps all the traffic to it out of my cooking areas.

Thanks peg!!

Good question! I definitely considered that as an option, but ultimately adding cabinets along that wall would have meant shortening the island and losing valuable counter space, which was more important to us than additional storage. As is we’ve already improved the amount of cabinets/pantry storage so we made that concession!
