I wanted a farm sink but the cost was prohibitive. Kitchen aisles need to be wide enough to accommodate all that goes on in a kitchen. No regrets well maybe the kitchen sink. Make sure to visit my friends channels to see what regrets they have.
A minor kitchen remodel will receive slightly better returns unless you re planning on staying in your home for a very long time and having an über high end stove is really important to you don t waste your time and money on a splurge.

The kitchen is on the north side and gets a decent amount of natural light but a skylight would have been great.
