The noise will keep you awake.
Do kitchens go on the second floor.

Why are kitchens never on the second floor of a house.
There are so many.
Don t put the laundry too close to sleeping areas.

The kitchen wall behind the range continues to a second floor bedroom so we do have a straight shot up and from what i can tell without having opened any walls the studs line up pretty well on both floors.
On a second floor try to position it so it backs onto a bathroom.
Yes i think it s odd for a kitchen to be on a second floor.
