Love this! The openness, the color of your island, and the chandeliers- lovely!

Completely different space.

Wow, amazing. Look at all you fit into that space and it flows so well. Love it!

Great transformation!

That's the biggest island I've ever seen.

very nice transformation. What color did you paint the island?

Absolutely Gorgeous!!!!

Before picture please ?

Beautiful blue island!

So thrilled you like it! Really wanted the turquoise island but was afraid it would be obnoxious! As it turns out it worked perfectly...even being 12 x 9 1/2". I'll try to post more pictures of the parts of the room that wouldn't fit in the picture.

This is a gorgeous kitchen, nothing about it that I don't love! Island is huge but so cool, love the color, the bottles atop the upper cabinet play off it so well. You must be beaming with pride about your design. :))

Amazing!!!

Love, love, love!

This looks amazing! Great way to utilize the space!

I would love to have a kitchen this big!

I love to see stories play out like this - it's what home owning is all about. Congratulations!

I'm in love with the light fixtures... they are beautiful.... ok I love the island as well... you did an amazing job.

Wow. That's amazing.

Love everything about it1

Love this!

This isn't even the same space. Where are the windows from the before photo? Not to mention the stairs and windows in the "after" photo.

Where did you find the chandeliers?

The new space is very attractive, but I am wondering how this possibly matches up with the " before" space. The windows and structural details do not align. Perhaps it is a completely different angle? If yes, it would be great if you could post comparable photos, so we can truly appreciate the transformation. I personally would have been reluctant to cover that beautiful terra cotta tile with wood. However, if the house is in a colder clime and the tile floor did not have radiant heat, an argument could have been made for having the comfort of wood (perhaps with radiant heat added) underfoot.

Nice pick up deb520 and riverpam. The other window was covered by the stairs. It is the exact same angle! We had to remove the stairs to make it possible to have a private master bath above. The wall to the left in the before picture was removed and a beam place across the structure which you can see in the after photo. As for the floor...being a barn there is no basement. Slab on grade tile without radiant heat was freezing not to mention we had to remove the entire floor to waterproof and add French drains. We did use reclaimed wood from another old barn.

Chandeliers were custom made.

I love it. The turquoise island looks amazing!

Beautiful, congratulations on your project. I find the space to be very warm and welcoming and the large blue island is the perfect foil for this large room. While travelling in Europe we've stayed in various barn structures that had been renovated to become personal dwellings. I love the character that they bring to the space. Thanks for sharing. Here's a couple of links to some of the places we stayed at in Italy and France. The original barns were built in the 1700s: http://www.resortfrati.it/eng/relax.php and http://www.les-granges-hautes.fr/en/accen.htm

What a beautiful, livable room!

Fabulous transformation. I love the blue island. Also love those gold chandeliers and the way they tie in with the gold granite on the island. Would love to see the range area.

Nicely done. I like the corner bench seat. How big is that Island and is the granite one peace?

Here are a few more before and after. I don't have one of the right side with the range on this computer. I can add them later.

Found one! This was taken for a local magazine article. The beam in the before picture was incorporated into the wall that the range is on. By doing this we eliminated the need for another I beam, created space for a large walk-in pantry, and provided the necessary duct work for the fume hood.

Such a great before and after! Absolutely love those light fixtures, and the turquoise color island! Very crisp, but still warm and inviting!

Love, love the island! Love the granite color also.

Forgot to respond to the island questions. It is 12' X 9 1/2'. Two book matched over-sized slabs. The attached picture is one that the installer asked me to take to show show his wife how big it really was. Fabulous guys from Apollo Granite and Marble.

Just a dream room, love it all, only thing missing is the people enjoying it!

Beautiful!

love the cabinet finish color! Great job!

Gorgeous!

I just noticed you are located in Wayne, PA :) I'm from the general area and know of the many horse farms in the Devon area.

Love it!!

It is Crazy Beautiful!! but, I don't love the lights over the island... the dogs are great!

Wow! I love the blue island. Contrasts wonderfully with the white cabinets

That is the most amazing island I have ever seen! Beautiful job on the entire space!

Wow! Wow! great new space, wow!

Love the lights and the island color,if you can't say anything nice S?D? Then you shouldn't say anything at all.Some people are so rude.

Was wondering how you wipe down the center of the island?? Do you have LONG arms?? Love this alot!

LOL! I can not say that i have not crawled across it but our friends gave us shuffleboard cues as a finishing gift! To this day they are still hanging in the pantry

Wow, that looks absolutely fabulous! I love the two light fixtures above the island. I also love the contrasting colors of the stone countertops and island base. Gorgeous!
