Scott Circle Kitchen & Living Room

These clients spend most of their time between their kitchen and living room where they enjoy their fireplace. The original kitchen was not only cut off from the living room but was tight and not functional for clients that enjoy cooking and entertaining. They wanted to open the floor plan and update the finishes throughout; starting with the front door! The fireplace in the living room was the first thing you saw when you walked into the house. The old fireplace had a tall curved brick hearth with a simple boring wood mantel. We modernized the fireplace by surrounding it with tile and removing the tall hearth. The same Uliano Gray Vicostone Quartz from the kitchen island now topped the lowered hearth. There were three different ceiling heights in the kitchen, to include some decorative wood ceiling panels and two pop ups that were removed and leveled out when the wall was removed between the kitchen and living room. The new large spacious island with a sink now sits where that wall once was. The original pantry was in the hallway adjacent to the kitchen, so it was not convenient at all. Space was taken from what used to be the formal dining for a new conveniently located pantry. The original formal dining was transformed into an office, which is more functional space for these clients. The coat closet that was once accessible from the entry way was closed off becoming a closet for the guest bedroom. We removed the chair rail and picture frame molding from the entry way and once the new front door was hung, the entry way was now completely transformed, to match the new kitchen and living area!
