This is a 1500 sf pre war townhouse that the owners have maximized. There is a large prep counter between the kitchen and living room, and the built in desk is in the living room.

The sale is pending so someone liked it


Are you the owner? Do you need cooking lessons? The kitchen looks very cute but totally disfunctional for anyone who ever wants to cook a meal!


DP. I live in Fairlington in a similar townhouse. Many people have opened the walls and put in a breakfast bar like these people did. I use the breakfast bar for preparing meals. I have two kids so I cook a lot. While I would love to have a big kitchen with a huge island which you and many others have, I can cook anything in my kitchen.

I could afford a $425,000 townhouse a few years ago but not a nice house in North Arlington. I don’t know what pleasure it gives you in making fun of people who don’t have big kitchens, but I hope you enjoy yourself.


Calm down. Posters are pointing out the (a?) discrepancy. It's obvious they put a lot of $ into the house, but the design is terrible. It's obvious the owners don't cook a lot, just by looking at that island. No one is criticizing the size of the house. Also, speaking as someone who cooks from scratch all the time and is an accomplished cook, you don't need a large kitchen to cook. Check out Alison Roman's old cooking stories-- her old kitchen was tiny.

It looks like an airtight container-see the part leaning against the back wall?


It looks like the bench lid is standing on end, possibly on a hinge. The long rails look like 2x4s with possibly a rubber strip to dampen the sound of closing. But doesn’t look like there’s a seal. Even if the lid is sealed, how are the interior edges of a wood box sealed? And, how is the area under the rails ever cleaned?


What a pain in the ass to get your dog food twice a day.

I was wondering this, too. Where am I supposed to prep ingredients and/or put things that come out of the oven?

I know the paint color and who furnished the black built ins.
