XP: Anyone use an English larder cabinet in lieu of a walk-in pantry?
Looks like we may have to reign in our addition due to a neighbor complaint.
So, my walk-in corner pantry will probably have to go. The English larder cabinets look like a space-efficient way to fit in a pantry.
I've never seen one of these in real life though. Anyone have one (or seen one)? Thoughts?

You mean this?
That looks divine! We use a closet with shelves and accordion doors. I lose stuff in the back so this looks like heaven! I'd probably prefer it to a walk in because you wouldn't lose the floor space (I also would probably end up with junk on the floor if I had the floor space, so less is usually better for me)
Yes! And that's the photo I have saved!
We're planning to build on to the back of our house, which would allow me to have a bigger kitchen. But our next-door neighbor is saying that the addition will block her light and views. The more I think about it, the more it annoys me. It really only blocks her view (distant view of maybe Oakland or some trees) from a small side window and doesn't impact the light at all. But depending of how much of a fight she puts up, we may have to make further accomodations (we've already cut back on the addition on the top floor on their side). I really didn't expect these neighbors to be so difficult (and totally expected others to be completely unreasonable, but they all love the plans and totally support us!).
