Can an oven and gas hob go in the corner? next to wall
Discussion
Very limited space in a flat. See pic. I want the oven on the right, and it has a gas hob. Is that allowed / acceptable? The sink will go in the space to the left above the drawer unit, with the drainer over the washing machine. The fridge and freezer are elsewhere.

I don't see why not, but the hob will be a PITA as you won't be able to put saucepan handles out over to the right, so they might not fit around the other saucepans or will get hot.
Could you put an under-counter oven in, then put a separate hob (induction as a preference) bridging the two units? this will give you about 50cm of worktop either side.
Good point didn't think about the handles. Do you mean put it in the middle like this?Could you put an under-counter oven in, then put a separate hob (induction as a preference) bridging the two units? this will give you about 50cm of worktop either side.
yeah I see what you mean I could centralise the hob like that. Re the other comments (Matt) - I could have the cooker up against the right wall, with a corner unit. In these pics I have added the two other units that contain the fridge and freezer underneath a worktop, so you can see how the entire space is. Thansk for all the suggestions

I would do it differently. Put stove on back wall, midpoint. Put sink on the island which can now be longer as you have no L with the stove. Perfect for cooking and washing. I have it that way and its ideal. Dishwasher also in island under sink. Pill post a pic later
ok that's interesting you mean something like this? But bare in mind I need two fridges underneath that island unit. (or if one goes in the corner then the washing machine + one fridge under the island). Will have to look at whether the sink sticks down in the wrong place etc but thanks for the idea.What does everyone think about this? - having the sink in the middle? This island is 180 wide so three regular units eg 2 fridges and one space for sink I suppose

I'd put the & hob oven where the sink is in the last picture, t'would make your plumbing easier & means you can talk to people/visitors, watch TV etc whilst cooking.
You've changed the picture! it was in the middle of the unit before
The other advantage of the sink being in the back wall, is that the work surface can go over the washing machine, with the draining board set in it, for more workspace.
