This small remodel was a make-over of a turn-of -the-century Four Square in Seattle's University District. Like many houses in Seattle's north end, this structure was extremely run down after years of abuse and deferred maintenance. Though we were initially engaged to remodel the kitchen, the scope of this project quickly morphed into a whole house remodel once we discovered that all the systems – mechanical, electrical and plumbing - and nearly every finish in the house was in an advanced state of disrepair.

Our client initially wanted a kitchen that celebrated his Italian heritage and love for cooking. Our response was our favorite Great Room plan with a Tuscan theme. The kitchen, now an integral part of the main level, has become the social hub of the house and opens directly into the Dining Room. We also added a Powder Bath on the Main Level and a Master Bath make-over upstairs.
