A Bright New Kitchen for An Historic Home

We updated this kitchen and surrounding area by brightening up the kitchen. We replaced the existing window with a larger casement window that fit in the original opening- bringing in more light. We also replaced the back door with more glass to let in even more light. The kitchen doorway was moved down to allow for a built in pantry and fridge area. Powder room was remodeled and scaled down to give more room for the kitchen. We also closed up a secondary door way to the powder room that was originally in the dining room, giving space back to both dinning room and powder room. We removed soffit in the kitchen to allow for uppers to go to the ceiling and opening up wall space to showcase bright subway tile and keep the kitchen feeling light and airy. We chose elements that fit with the time period and historic nature of the home. Antique brass details in hardware and lighting, marble looking quartz and a subway tile. We also removed an island to open the space back up.
