The kitchen is now the hub of the house with its roomier, more open layout, natural light and improved flow. Flooring is new top nailed White Oak to match the existing floor. New perimeter cabinets are painted white with unlacquered brass hardware. Near the windows is a cookbook and bill pay area with a fold-down desk. All cabinetry is custom made by Versatile Wood Products. Counters are topped with 3cm Soapstone from Pental Surfaces. Most of the light fixtures are salvaged and restored, and represent the general time period of the house. Appliances include a range by BlueStar, Miele dishwasher and Frigidaire refrigerator, all from EastBank Appliances, while plumbing fixtures are by Kohler and Waterstone. The custom range hood cover was crafted by Versatile Wood Products. There are framed corkboards for family notes and reminders, and the backsplash tile at the sink and range is glossy white thin brick by Fireclay.
