Behold, the walk-in closet, I mean kitchen!
Seriously, if the house is small and the floorplan bad, maybe that was their only option...

Could it be 2nd kitchen for the inlaw suite in the basement? For that purpose, I think it's practical

This looks like the house on Folin. I always chuckle when I drive by and see the sale sign in front...who in their right mind would buy something like this in Vienna.

That first house is cute and has potential.

I think kitchens that small is why IKEA was invented.

that tall skinny house is sort of frightening for some reason.

I kinda agree. It's sort of interesting how they stuck the kitchen in there! The second house is a sfh th.
