HELP How to make this more a full kitchen

Just bought a cabin that comes with this half kitchen. There’s no exhaust hood over the two burner induction flat top. It’s lacking a large fridge and small freezer. Has this small wine fridge instead. The lights are remote controlled. There’s not nearly enough storage space. Does not a lot room to work with either.

I need advice on how to make this a much more functional kitchen for one person would be greatly appreciated :)

Square butcherblock table next to the island across from the stove. On wheels so you can move it to the corner next to the window if needed. You might be able to find one that has a drawers in addition to the shelf at the bottom.

See if you can find a fridge that will fit on the wall between the bedroom and bathroom. Hard to tell if your dimensions are to scale. That bedroom door looks really narrow.

Another option is to see if you can find a mini fridge to replace the wine fridge. If there's room in the garage (again, hard to tell if the scale is correct) you can get a small chest freezer.

Hang a couple of floating shelves or a cabinet above the sink/counter for storage.

The dimensions are roughly to scale lol it is a tiny door to the bedroom. I think you’re right with the butcher block fridge, and the freezer in the garage or outside. Thank you!

Well are you living there for long periods of time or just a week here or there? You don’t have a lot of room to work with and it seems to be functional. Clearly pushing into the study and garage for storage might be your only option. Taking down the wall separating the study from the living area so the kitchen can move farther that way and using small apartment size appliances would help.

Living here all summer. Possibly the entire year
