The Kitchen

The kitchen remodel involved removal of an old exterior wall, reframing and drywall repair of exterior wall. All cabinetry was replaced with the sleek styling of maple finish cabinetry. The cabinetry included several large pullout drawers for pots and pans storage. The owners really enjoy this added feature in the cabinetry, feeling that it is more user friendly for busy cooks with full hands. Corian countertops in Shale compliment the new space adding a striking depth of color. The owners are genuinely thrilled with their new kitchen and it’s plentiful workspaces. New appliances make short and joyful work of preparing favorite recipes. With its new surfaces and beautiful cabinetry, the owners find it a fun place to cook and prepare favorite meals. A grandmother’s flowerpot is used as a utensil holder, keeping with a proud family tradition. Not far from the flowerpot, hangs a treasured memento-a letter written by Julia Child.
