Anyone?

Several things to consider. An island should have a minimum of 36" between the cabinets. Even more 42"+, between a stove and/or a dishwasher.
The other issue is relocating the electric receptacle(s), of which your island should include. If this is something you feel comfortable safely doing, you could move it yourself. Keeping in mind the space requirements listed above.
