Transformation of an outdated galley kitchen into a large open kitchen that was reconfigured with multiple work zones, an eat-in area and access to a new laundry area and half bath. Wasted space was reclaimed for built-in banquet seating and a double-sided island. Appliances and fixtures were conveniently placed to allow this space to function properly for a cook and a baker. Doorways to the dining room and family room were widened to create a more open feel and allow for more natural light. We updated the look with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a farmhouse sink, new custom cabinetry, recessed and pendant lighting. The new porcelain planked floor tile was a practical and durable choice for this kitchen.

This 1940's home did not have a master bath, and the homeowners were forced to use a cramped bath off the kitchen on the lower level. This project involved the creation of a master suite by the addition of a spacious 2nd story master bath and walk-in closet. The master bath has the cottage charm that the homeowner's desired with a freestanding claw foot tub, a separate shower with a bench, a double furniture vanity, beadboard wainscot paneling and a slate floor.
