Weird corner space in kitchen

Kitchen remodel in progress. The electric stove will be moved to the right with cabinets on either side .The cabinet on the left will extend past first "jag" about 6 inches out. Fridge will be placed to the right of the window.
This leaves a 11" deep ,24 " wide space on the second jag. SO... do I extend the counter all the way to the fridge with a mini shelf /cabinet underneath ? Use a different top maybe butcher block for the small portion ? Can not enclosed the whole thing without moving all the heating ducts (top of the wall section ).

My answer won't be very helpful because am in process of remodeling mine to look like yours! Love,love the 'old' country kitchens. Yours is to die for in "my opinion". That old stove, I would love AND use.

I would consider using the space of the heating vent/cold air return, whatever that is, to hang often used or decorative pots or utensils on pegboard or with a metal hanging system from Ikea.

I would do the mini shelf with the cabinet underneath.

Go to Home Depot, with all of your measurements and have them lay out your kitchen in their computer. Even if you don't purchase from them, they can do this for you - they will utilize every inch of your kitchen!

Could you paint or cover the pipe in some sort of funky color so it looks more intentional? Then add some horizontal artwork, maybe some rustic metal piece that would coordinate with the new finish on pipe?

IKEA has a kitchen planner you can do online it is pretty good I helped my daughter plan her kitchen with it and she had a couple of funky areas too.

How about open display shelves and the perfect spot for a good-sized trash can beneath? If you're left-handed, you could add a pull out butcher block (or other surface) cutting board at the end. You could also use it when you take items out of the oven, so everyone would know that if a dish is there, it's hot.
