When we did our addition, the original kitchen/laundry room were ripped off the back of the house. New back half of house from basement to 2nd floor. We move the washer/dryer/sink base cabinet into the LR all in a row. Had top loading washer; then dryer; then sink. Had temp water hook ups all in the same place and had the dryer to use as a counter for dishes/such. Fridge was on the other side of the room. Tall bookcase with TV/food supplies/microwave. Used the microwave, grill on the front porch and electric frying pan. I moved the coffee pot to the upstairs bathroom as there just wasn't enough room for one more electrical thing in the LR at that point and I had water! We lived this way for about 8 months. About the only room in the house that was not touched during that reno was our then bedroom. Eventually had to patch one wall in there but at least it was after the reno was just about complete and we had moved into the new BR.
