Breakfast nooks like you describe were quite popular in the 50's and 60's.
Check the older home crafting books at your library. If you're near a large
library check their microfilm library of magazines of that era.

What I've done in situations like this is take a tape measure and
notepad into the furniture store. Tell the sales droid you're there to
measure the piece to see if it will fit your kitchen. Get the critical
dimensions then go home and build it using quality materials and
construction.

I wouldn't feel right about doing this with a quality piece of furniture
(unless I asked a store worker first) but have no qualms about doing it
with junk.
