Patty Milinkovich This beautiful kitchen was transformed using existing cabinets and replacing the doors. The original kitchen was blonde oak. Doors were replaced and ends and surfaces veneered to create a beautiful kitchen. Only a couple of cabinets were actually replaced in full. The peninsula area had a raised area for seating and was cut down to create a more modern design. Now with the counter height all one height, the task area is also increased. Beautiful Caesar Stone countertop with a simple beveled white backsplash completes the look.
