West + Main agent Kendra Lanterman completely overhauled her home's kitchen for a fresh space that is functional + welcoming.
We bought our home from a beloved family member in 2014 and it was our dream home. However, we almost doubled our square footage during the move but our kitchen got smaller! I love to cook for my kids and my family and enjoy my time in the kitchen with a glass of wine so I knew that one day I wanted to transform the kitchen and unused formal dining room into a kitchen of my dreams. This was a project we had been saving for over many years and we were so excited to see it come to fruition!
Since we transitioned our formal dining room into additional kitchen space and doubled the size of our kitchen; we made sure we still had space for a formal dining room but everything is so much more open concepts and flows better when we entertain! The design will absolutely help with resale value! We made sure to protect the features that buyers still want in their homes while maximizing the space and flow.
This was a major renovation that included removing walls, moving and upgrading electrical, moving ductwork, completely new everything and because it was the kitchen of our dreams, we did not spare expense. We hired a five-star contractor who got the job done in a timely, well organized manner. Specifically for this project, we prioritized design, efficiency and quality and spent a little more in our budget. Cress kitchen and bath did amazing work and I would recommend them to everyone!
