Tomkins Knob

Project Year: 2021
We repurposed the space in the little-used dining room to make a larger kitchen with an abundance of cabinetry, countertop and storage. The kitche has two peninsulas and the new nook table seats up to eight.

View from nook to oven. The new nook table seats 8 and is used for formal and informal gathering. The dining room was repurposed to make the kitchen bigger.

The two windows in the nook were formally in the dining room. The added light in this area really expanded the perceived size of the living area.

This formal dining room was little used and we captured it to englarge the kitchen. The two windows in the photo were moved to the nook area.

When we moved the two windows we place them in the nook as "twin" windows (mulled together)

View from the old kitchen to the dining room. The new kitchen would go all the way to the picture wall of the dining room.

The only pantry is a small closet to the right of the minimal cooking zone.

This was the previous clean up area and with the two-level top, not the social magnet we wanted

The old bar seating area was 7" deep (short by at least 6"). You could not sit there without bumping your knees
