THE ECLECTIC TREASURE
A lovely living room, kitchen, and bath.
BEFORE
ABOUT THE PROJECT
This galley kitchen was very narrow and did not allow the couple to work together comfortably. They wanted more prep/counter space, a larger sink, and broom/pantry/appliance storage. They also wanted indoor/outdoor integration, a good flow into the rear yard, and plenty of natural light.
To avoid taking away from the existing main floor plan, we expanded the kitchen with a small addition. A large island with a big country sink created space on the outer countertops for small everyday appliances. A hidden broom closet holds cleaning supplies and brooms.
A large patio door leading to a covered deck floods the kitchen with natural light for indoor/outdoor integration. A larger window in the sitting area also brings more natural light to the main floor. We moved the mudroom door by 4 feet to allow for a more aesthetic look from the living room and better flow for the mudroom/entry.
The bathroom was small, cramped and in need of a facelift. We removed a small linen closet so we could move the vanity into this space. This helped to create a larger, more spacious bathroom. A brilliant textured turquoise tile surrounds the new tub with a glass bath screen that folds 180 degrees.
