Before and After - Arts and Crafts Character Home Kitchen Renovation
This 100 year old Arts & Crafts home was in need of an updated kitchen which complimented the existing character of the home yet had modern conveniences. A wall was removed and the existing breakfast area was used to enlarge the kitchen and to open the kitchen up to a small family room adjacent to the rear entry. New efficient LED lighting was utilized. A Shaker style door front was selected to compliment the existing built-in cabinets in the existing dining room. Stainless steel apron front sink and appliances were added. Cork floors were selected for warmth, comfort and sustainability. Granite countertops and a Frank Lloyd Wright inspired backsplash added glamour. The glass leading in the upper cabinets complimented the existing glass details throughout the existing home.
