Transitional Kitchen Remodel: Maple Glen, PA

This kitchen was expanded through the removal of the undersized builder's breakfast nook and the dividing interior wall, which created a more functional space. A new, larger window was installed over the sink area, and the existing soffits were reduced as dictated by the mechanicals which remain concealed in the new smaller soffits. The inset cherry cabinetry includes an apothecary cabinet designed with a recessed back to conceal an existing drain line that was originally contained within the interior wall that was removed. The redesigned refrigerator area features a stainless steel, side-by-side refrigerator, an oversized pantry with roll-out shelves, a lit wall cabinet, and an alcove for the microwave. A new beverage and wine area was integrated next to the updated utility closet which features lattice work doors. A limestone hood over the cooking area and Sante Fe Brown granite countertops with a brushed finish add a natural, low-luster look to the kitchen. In the dining area a new fireplace and surround, which features a niche for a TV and decorative bookshelves, was designed and installed.
