The homeowners felt their kitchen was too small and cramped for their growing family. While it opened to the living room, it remained disconnected from the rest of the house. A large wall with a pantry divided the kitchen and dining area, making the space feel tight and confined.
The biggest challenge in this remodel was reconfiguring the layout to include a large island that could serve as both a breakfast table and a central gathering space, while also providing more cabinet storage. To maximize functionality, a bench seat under the window was added for extra storage and to visually extend the island, making the kitchen feel open all the way to the family room rather than stopping at the windows.
The result? The homeowners absolutely love their new kitchen. It’s perfect for entertaining, with plenty of room for their kids to spread out and tackle homework or art projects on the spacious island. This remodel transformed the space into a functional, inviting heart of the home for the entire family.
