[quote=Anonymous]The flow is arguably better without that little kitchen foyer and a pantry was a god-send in our small kitchen so I'd say go for it. That wall is almost certainly load bearing so you really need to have a contractor or engineer look at where you can and cannot punch a door. Also you are looking at re-routing some electrical (which means permit) and patching/matching hardwood floors. Very hard to estimate costs but materials would be under $1.5K (guesstimate based on solid, pre-hung door, framing materials, drywall, paint, cheap shelving). Still, it shouldn't be a huge project- with an engineer's assessment I'd probably DIY, but I'm pretty handy. [/quote]
