I have a Gardenia ~ very similar to the Begonia. We've ordered two matching 12" pantry cabinets for the nook. We could squeeze in 15", but don't want to crowd the window. We don't plan to use the nook as an eating area.
I plan to put pantry foods in the new cabinets, and use the existing pantry for appliance and quick food (soup, bread, etc) storage. DH is putting a mixer lift in one of the cupboards near the sink.
After we live with those changes for a bit, we will consider a rolling center island. I really don't have enough space for a fixed center island (and can't get elec to it).
We ordered the cabinets from Pro Source Orlando, for about $2,000.00 for the pantry and the trimwork. They will be an exact match to the existing.
DH will do the install. It is pretty straightforward.
