Built in 1929, the kitchen underwent a remodel in 2018. The goal of the remodel was to create a more modern and functional kitchen. The classic light gray walls give an open and airy feel to the space. A peek into the homeowner’s cookbook nook shows an interest in local titles.

A love of French Country has greatly influenced the design and style of this kitchen. The home has a more feminine feel with pops of pink and green through the living spaces. The dark wood shelves in the bar nook were custom-made with a unique scalloped edge. The dark countertops contrasts with the light countertops in the adjacent kitchen.

This transitional style kitchen, built in 2017, has painted white maple cabinets, accented with gold brushed hardware and white quartz countertops.
