A new open kitchen, a light neutral paint color, and rich hardwood floors make the home feel light, open and airy. The dated wood trim, perked up with a fresh white, glossy coat of paint. The kitchen is open, with plenty of room to entertain and an inviting new deck is right out the back door. The end result is breezy and bright!
Gannon Small Addition & Powder Room
Our client's 80 year old home has a ton of charm and character. Unfortunately, the powder room that separated the kitchen from the back living space made both rooms feel smaller and made it difficult to entertain. We needed to open up this space to allow for better flow and functionality.

Our client's 80 year old home has a ton of charm and character. Unfortunately, the powder room that separated the kitchen from the back living space made both rooms feel smaller and made it difficult to entertain. We needed to open up this space to allow for better flow and functionality. We started by moving the powder room into the existing footprint for the living space and then we increased the footprint of the living space itself. By moving the powder room, we not only opened up the floor plan, but it allowed for a ton more light to flood the back of the house. We didn't gain a ton of square footage with this addition as we did not want to sacrifice the patio in the back of the house. We needed just enough room to allow for more seating & for adding the powder room. We angled the powder room door in order to make the room feel more open and eliminate sharp corners that may make the back of the room feel like a tunnel. We reused the existing door and matched the original door knob to keep with the character in the home. We laced in new hardwood, where tile had been, to match the existing hardwood in the front rooms. This made the rooms feel more cohesive and much larger. Our client can now enjoy a much brighter more open space to enjoy entertaining friends or curling up with a good book.
Mission Ct Kitchen
A small island is great for conversation and prep space, also hiding the microwave drawer. The built in wine storage peeks around the corner holding an impressive 92 bottles of wine. We added new hardwood flooring to match the entire first floor bringing together the old and the new. The result is a warm and inviting kitchen!

Our client wanted to remodel his outdated kitchen as soon as he moved in. The classic U City Tudor needed an update that was true to the history of the home. The existing kitchen had a bathroom right next to the island. We added a wall to create a hallway and offer privacy, that now feels like a natural extension of the home.
Our client loves to cook and the wall provided us a new place to incorporate a professional range and hood. A small island is great for conversation and prep space, also hiding the microwave drawer.
