Kitchen directly underneath bathroom

Thanks for the layout plans.

These are some considerations:

1. Common sense : Ideally, the sewerage pipe(s) does not run directly above a stove. As there is a 1 in a million chance that the sewerage pipe may leak or burst sending "chocolate stuff" downwards. That's all.

2. Under symbolism in Feng Shui, best not to have the WC throne directly above the stove. If this is not the case, then phew!

3. For a bedroom above the kitchen; so long as the bed/bed-head is not directly above a stove; this is a plus point.

Otherwise, what you have is acceptable. As frankly, there is often no such thing as a perfect home even if one builds it from scratch.

Dear Cecil,I am quite lost and
am hoping for a general advice
in regards to a property I
have put a deposit in. The
house is a home and land
package which we are not
allowed to make any changes to
the floor plan.The
concern we have is that the
kitchen is directly underneath
the master bedroom's ensuite.
I have heard that it is
inauspicious to have kitchen
underneath bathroom. However,
I have also heard that as long
as the toilet bowl is not
directly above the stove it
should not be a problem (the
stove is underneath the
bathroom's sink). Is this
true?As it will cost us
a fortune (and we may not be
able to afford it) to rip the
kitchen out and move it
somewhere else. The main
reason we decided to put a
deposit in is due to its
affordability.I have attached
the floor plans which shows
the bathroom and kitchen
locations. If we have to move
the kitchen, would it best to
move it to the area where the
theatre room is or should we
move it to where the
dining/family is?Your general
advice will be greatly
appreciated.Warm regards, Sue
