Nestled in the SW Hills/Bridlemile neighborhood, this kitchen renovation and addition embodies a harmonious blend of functionality and timeless elegance. this project showcases the kitchen, laundry room, mudroom, and walk-in pantry. It also included extending the exterior wall to reclaim valuable space, tailored for a couple with a passion for cooking.
One of the standout features is the seamless integration of spaces; a wall was artfully removed to enhance connectivity between the dining room and kitchen, while preserving a special wall with unique wallpaper and custom paint. The fireplace surround was tastefully replaced, and the built-in China hutch redesigned with deeper drawers for optimal storage efficiency.
Notable additions include a Marvin Ultimate Slider and all-wood window, flooding the kitchen with natural light and offering picturesque views of the neighborhood. The hardwood floors in the dining and kitchen areas were carefully patched and refinished, adding to the project’s thorough attention to detail.
With a focus on future-proof design, the layout was thoughtfully crafted for aging in place. The design is catering to the clients who have cherished their home for over three decades. Practical features like an extended counter width, a no-toe-kick design in the laundry room for easy vacuum access, and a built-in pull-down ironing board enhance the functionality of the space.
Other smart elements abound, from the skylight, to the expansive island, to the Pratt & Larson hand-painted tiles adorning the stove’s backdrop and the terra cotta tiles in the pantry and mudroom. The kitchen boasts Quartzite countertops from Bedrosians, complemented by Wolf, Subzero, and Cove appliances, ensuring both beauty and functionality.
Custom craftsmanship is evident throughout, with cherry wood cabinetry featuring a darker stain at the crown and accent painted uppers. Details such as custom toe kicks with heat register slots and cherry wood receptacle covers highlight the bespoke nature of the project, tailored to the clients’ exacting preferences.
This transformation reflects a true labor of love and attention to detail, creating a space that not only meets but exceeds the clients’ expectations for their beloved home in Bridlemile.
