This home was custom built in 1980 and the original kitchen included a large seating area with minimal working space. The overall kitchen seemed very small in comparison to the size of the house.

Carpentry By Chris undertook a complete redesign of the space, expanding the kitchen into the space that had been a dining area. Enlarging the kitchen allowed for more work space and larger appliances, including a 48” dual-fuel range and a large built-in refrigerator. The bar is also equipped with is own undercounter refrigerator with icemaker.

The new kitchen has a modern feel with frameless cherry cabinets, Monarch Gold granite countertops, and a tumbled stone backsplash highlighted by under cabinet lighting.

The new design includes a large island with cabinet storage, a peninsula with seating counter, a separate bar area, and a seating nook. The result is a kitchen which is the ideal place to work and spend time in.
