I’ve never seen such an ugly unusable kitchen… also not choosing a flat top stove… just adds to how awful it is


_Celatid_

That stove choice would be a huge red flag for other questionable work done in that house. Some idiot will pay twice asking price tho.


nuck_forte_dame

Demand creates supply. Idiots PREFER these flipped homes where everything done to it wasn't their choice, done as cheap as possible, and likely wasn't good quality. Basically it's the same as if someone took a clapped out car with 250k miles on it and barely runs and puts a new interior in the car for the lowest price they can and then price it 2x


beaushaw

This was posted before but it had several more pictures. I am a kitchen designer and I remember finding about a dozen serious problems with it. It really is a mess.


charming_liar

So how would you even fix it? Stack the washer dryer in the corner, put countertops and range along the back wall and under the window, pivot the sink to under the window and have the island me an actual island (or not there?)


toddestan

My guess they did this to retrofit a laundry area in. You need water for the washing machine, and a 240V plug for the (presumably electric) drier. Where are you going to get both of those things? The kitchen of course! So get the washer and drier out of there. Put the fridge and stove where the washer and drier are, which I'd be reasonably sure that's where they were originally. This will get you back to the galley-style kitchen I'm sure this started with. You could then get rid of the extra cabinets they probably added where the stove is and get your dining room back. I'd guess there was probably a wall there at one point to separate the kitchen and dining room which was removed in the name of an open floor plan. Bringing that back would be optional. Then figure out where to put the washer and drier. In the original listing one of the main floor bathrooms looks to have a laundry sink in it (lol), so that's probably where they may have been at one point. Probably a bathtub there now, so take that out. You've got water, and with any luck getting 240V routed (back) won't be a big headache.


JulieWriter

This is kind of killing me. They have so much space and they used it so poorly, and it's so ugly!


notevenapro

When we replace our stove it has to jave controls on the back, not front.


MadeInCanada87

I had a friend who thought it was a brilliant idea to put her laundry room adjacent to her walk in closet for convince. We spent a weekend making it air tight because of the amount of lint that would accumulate on her clean clothes even with a shut door between the two. Cooking in this makes my skin crawl


liquidgoldminer

Damn you, HGTV for empowering idiots!


CMDR_Bartizan

The more I look at it the worse it gets.


Existential_Sprinkle

the stove is right below the fan so it's going to get a thick coat of grease


CMDR_Bartizan

Sink on other side of stove, long walk to use it where you’re likely doing most of the work on the stove side. That huge floor vent raises questions. Sockets along the window ledge. Half height windows that don’t appear to open, the laundry, the dishwasher that can’t possibly open fully, that ceiling fan for sure makes no sense there, the pots/pans hanging contraption, it goes on and on.


Rinzy2000

This is objectively dysfunctional.


IcyCartographer8150

well at least we know they got an excellent deal on openbox appliances


MethodMaven

It looks like the ‘island’ is actually a counter, going all the way to the window wall. So - you cook something, then need to wash up - so you shove all the dirty dishes across the counter, and then walk behind to get to the dw & sink … hopefully no one else is doing laundry. If they had put the counter under the windows, and put the sink/dw on the peninsula, better flow, and they could have squeezed a small wheeled island in the middle.


OneSensiblePerson

On the plus side, if you've shoved all your dishes to the other side of the island, you can wash and dry your clothes with just one pivot! Efficiency, you know.


IfICouldStay

I have serious doubt that could open the dishwasher door all the way.


ScarletDarkstar

That was one of my first thoughts as well. 


OneSensiblePerson

Yeah, I doubt there's enough room for them to completely open.


kortiz46

I’m honestly dubious if the doors on those wash and dryer can even fully open. If they can you’re basically trapped in there kneeling in a grate to get your clothes out


jnwatson

Saw a similar situation just this weekend. Cute little rowhome, updated small kitchen where the washer and dryer were stacked in what used to be the pantry. It seemed really efficient, like how did they fit everything in. Luckily my wife noticed it. There was no oven. They just had a range and a microwave. Under the range was just storage, which was needed in that tiny space.


MethodMaven

FYI, a ‘range’ is an oven/cooktop combo. Sounds like they just had a cooktop (burners) and no oven.


jnwatson

You are correct.


Regular_Historian892

The microwave might’ve had a built in convection oven. Honestly I barely even use my full size oven. I’ve had half a mind to do the same thing in my tiny kitchen…


QueenNibbler

I once saw a house that had two mini fridges in the kitchen but no full sized fridge or freezer. There was also the smallest stove/oven combo I have ever seen. All of the appliances were kitchenaid and the house was quite large, so I really have absolutely no clue what the thinking was.


ChaserNeverRests

Since getting an air fryer, I never use my oven. I probably haven't touched it in three years. (Single person household, if you have kids or something no oven would probably be a lot harder.)


Beelzabubba

I’m not one to call for violence but someone deserves to get punched for this disaster.


Barney_Weasley

This must be bad AI… please tell me this is bad AI


OrangePowerade

It's real. And even better is it's under contract to buy, so all of you missed out on this amazing kitchen being yours

there is something off about the photo, but sometimes now it's so hard to tell when there isn't a human or animal in the photo

This has been posted before and the rest of the house is similarly badly designed.

_Khoshekh

So much worse with multiple angles. Floor plan is kinda bizarre and nothing looks especially well done


NineteenthJester

The people selling this lived there for 17 years. These are either morons who barely cook or they're morons living with a previous flipper's mistakes.

Oh for crying out loud!


Regular_Historian892

We should really bring back tarring and feathering just for these flippers.


WriteAndStarve

The longer I look the worse it gets


DHumphreys

I was in a flipped house a few days ago that the kitchen was so poorly thought out, they obviously do not cook anything beyond frozen pizza.

what the hell is even that


Awesam

Daddy chill


notoriousJEN82

And then to cram a FULL SIZED WASHER AND DRYER in there just takes the freaking cake!!!


RubyPorto

The chest freezer's a nice touch


beccabootie

This design is really dreadful. I would never want to use this workspace. Too inconvenient and it looks stupid.


exhaustedmom

And this beauty comes with personal floor heating at the sink, attention to detail.


SubversiveInterloper

That’s not a personal floor heater, it’s a catcher for all the kitchen dirt and debris and liquids that normally spill on kitchen floors. So handy!


Bulky_Ninja33

Hey at least there's a fan over the cooktop to push the steam back on top of the chef, as well as drown out the noise of the W/D!🙄🙄🙄


Candid_Medium6171

That stove is actually legendary, this is peak flipper-core.


Realistic-Weird-4259

Our home has the laundry RIGHT ACROSS from where we COOK. It's the most disgusting thing I've ever had to live with. You get food in your clothes and hair in your food if you're not careful. My husband likes to use the machines to put pans and trays while he's cooking (we have very little counter space) and IT DRIVES ME UP THE WALL I HATE IT. It's just so much nasty all in one place. So much for the kitchen work triangle there. At least we have that much going for us.

Refrigerator??


Suz9006

This one has been posted before. Yes, awful design.


sator-2D-rotas

The more I look at it, the more I see wrong. And coffee isn’t helping. I’ve heard the phrase ‘form follows function’ but I don’t think this flipper has. Either that or I don’t want to know the intended function of this space.


dragon34

I don't know how you could even open the washer, dryer or dishwasher.  Also since front loaders should be open when not in use literally never being able to use the sink sounds fun 


insuranceguynyc

What an absolutely awful kitchen! It would have to be completely torn out and rebuilt if the buyer planned on doing anything beyond boiling water. That's not even the correct type of range for this install.

I….theres a lot going on there.


SubversiveInterloper

So, there’s no vent hood, but there is a ceiling fan right above the stove to spread the cooking grease all over the house. Is that a chest freezer in the corner? What’s that grate right in the middle of the floor?


Wonderful_Charity411

This is the ugliest setup I have ever seen


Gust_2012

This is such a poor layout it's not even funny.


ImprovementNo8892

Whats up with the unusually wide drawer on the left? Is this some sort of kitchen/map room?


illHangUpAndListen1

This can’t be real. “What else is wrong with this home?” is a wise question for a potential buyer to ask.

No cause why is the laundry in the kitchen… also have people never used a kitchen or seen a kitchen layout before??? There’s only like 4 main layouts used, and they’re used for a reason


1-Fred

The kitchen is not bad, but dirty laundry should be in another place, maybe near bedrooms
