The light coming thru the windows wouldn't be too great for viewing the computer monitor screen, but the view sitting there paying the bills and opening mail would be fantastic. If one didn't go overboard with the countertop material, it might be doable at a reasonable cost. I had a smaller unit with three base cabinets and a two-walled custom made desktop installed in the laundry room of a Lantana by Bailey. We use it all the time.

For the Begonia the best use is on the front wall. You can really only use one wall and have it look right. The front wall does it best. Cost for matching cabinets upper and lower and a nice granite top is about $3600 installed.
