Either a 'slide in' that is built into the counter, or tear out the uppers there, build a 'halfwall' behind the range about 45" high (as high as the range backsplash) and use a 'freestanding' one (less $$$). that would give some definition to the space also with out need the overhead ancients to do that.5) Where the double oven was, that could be more base, counter, and upper cabinet to make up for what you are loosing taking out the uppers over the peninsula.
