One of the ugliest parts of this home was the kitchen. It was very dark, little light, and completely useless. No one would like to cook in this….
So now it’s time to break out the sledgehammers and get to work! We decided to remove an old window on the back wall and replace it with a slider to walk out onto a new deck. Also since the kitchen was large enough we decided to build out a nice pantry.
To help the overall feel of the home we opened up the wall between the kitchen and living room and made it a half wall. This way there was still usable wall space but gave a nice open feel. We didn’t want the kitchen to feel cheap so we did a staggered height cabinet arrangement with crown molding to give it some character. I think the end result speaks for itself….
