Situated at one end of the home, with access to the centrally located living area, this kitchen gives the wide-open-spaces feel of an old farmhouse. Clean, white board and batten ceilings and built-in cabinetry balance the rich walnut-stain of the floor. Expansive counters provide ample preparation space, with a sink at each end. Tiles line the back wall bringing a splash of color to the room, while large windows line every wall, taking advantage of bright natural light and gorgeous lake views. Ideal for entertaining, the island features barstool seating and a nearby serving hutch provides a wine cooler, icemaker and additional sink. Beautiful stained glass china cabinets are backlit to enhance displays, and custom-designed appliance paneling adds to the elegance of the space.
