Current Projects: Cary Kitchen Remodel

I’m excited to share photos of a kitchen remodel that Judy and I completed recently.  Take a look below!

Our clients wanted to take advantage of as much storage space as possible.  Analyzing their previous laylout, we looked at how they utilized every inch to determine the most efficient changes.  We worked with Eddie Casanave at Distinctive Remodeling and Horizon Cabinetry who did a wonderful job - the end result is stunning!  The granite countertops were fabricated by Rock’interiors, and we selected the tile backsplash at Triangle Tile & Stone.

This was the kitchen before, with the original builder cabinets, white appliances, and Corian countertops.  It was time for an update!  We removed the cook top from the island and installed a range along the back wall.

The left side of the kitchen previously felt a bit crowded and bulky.  We simplified the design and opened up additional counter space.  Diamond shaped leaded glass doors hang above an additional sink.  A convection microwave and warming drawer replaced the built in oven.  Because they don’t have a pantry closet, these tall cabinets house their dry food storage. 

Making the island all one level really opened up the space!

Design details include a lift for their Kitchen Aid mixer that hides behind one of the doors in the island.  The drawers near the sink and dishwasher feature dowels that hold plates and bowls in place. 

The panels in the hood aren’t just a decorative detail; we used push-latch doors to provide access to storage.  Spice pull-outs flank the Wolf range. 

Isn’t the stone backsplash gorgeous? 

We’re currently finishing up some of the other spaces in the home including the breakfast area, dining room, living room, family room, and powder room.  Look for those to be featured on the blog soon!
