Bought a house, estimated the renovation budget plus 10-15% for inevitable extras, and we set aside 5000 EUR for the kitchen!!!!

That’s how it started... at first, I was in a bit of shock, but we still had time. First step: remove all the walls for a new layout—I need space...

Let’s start with the (according to the agent) move-in ready property. The small kitchen, just under 8 square meters (about 86 square feet), had its 1970s pass-through removed. The wall including the kitchen door is gone! The wall next to the cellar stairs is gone too! Actually, the entire slanted wall, nearly 7 meters (23 feet) high, removed completely...

The window had to go as well since we needed a different working height than the standard 90 cm (35 inches). New screed installed, we switched to underfloor heating, all electrical wiring and water pipes are new.

After almost six months, the realization slowly sank in: the kitchen budget will not exceed 5000 EUR, so we had to look for a used kitchen... something special, but very cheap.

The search criteria: within a 100 km (62 miles) radius, up to 1000 EUR, because I still want new appliances.

The machine is against the wall. You just need to place a cup of coffee that is not completely empty inside, and you’ll get nice brown stains that cannot be fully wiped off.

Ah, so it’s about the wall on the side. I was thinking the whole time about the wall behind the countertop and wondered how anything could splash there. Thanks for clarifying. 🙂

Oh, that works too
1. Fill the coffee pot completely, very important
2. Remove the lid
3. Try to aim for the upper rack of the dishwasher

That should be enough so that the wall behind the countertop is decorated.

Hello .. There are some really nice kitchens here :-) Attached is a picture of mine. And please, no comments about maintenance. Let’s just say it’s manageable...
