A 1940's bungalow was renovated and transformed for a small family. This is a small space - 800 sqft (2 bed, 2 bath) full of charm and character. Custom and vintage furnishings, art, and accessories give the space character and a layered and lived-in vibe. This is a small space so there are several clever storage solutions throughout. Vinyl wood flooring layered with wool and natural fiber rugs. Wall sconces and industrial pendants add to the farmhouse aesthetic. A simple and modern space for a fairly minimalist family.

Even more fantastic is the storage that was built into her kitchen, Ann says. For instance, a sole IKEA LEHRYTTAN cabinet is featured above the countertops at the elbow of the L-shaped layout and ample base cabinetry along the same perimeter on either side of the Viking dishwasher and range. On the opposite side of the range is a large and tall pantry featuring IKEA LEHRYTTAN cabinets as well. The floor-to-ceiling pantry is ideal for food storage and is conveniently situated near the dining table. “I have so much drawer space and tall pantries with pullouts. I did not need a lot of wall-mounted cabinets. In fact, I only have one for glasses. I keep all my dishes in drawers below the countertop,” she says. She concludes: “I love the black cabinetry. I never would’ve picked black if I had gone with custom or had painted the original cabinetry. I chose the IKEA LEHRYTTAN because it’s one of the only styles that have a wood grain look to it. They make such a statement and are not dark or overwhelming. They are actually quite friendly and welcoming!” Ann notes that originally she felt that the IKEA kitchen island was too close to the refrigerator. But she also wanted to expand the existing footprint to incorporate a big island for eating. “I realized I could live with people’s backs being close to the refrigerator door when it was opened,” she adds. The island – which serves as a true centerpiece of the space – also features the IKEA LEHRYTTAN cabinetry and is complemented by IKEA white quartz countertops. The island not only provides an eating area for three, it also has an electrical outlet to plug in appliances for Ann or her family to use for food prep. In fact, this leaves ample space for a proper work triangle and traffic flow.

Nothing like a bluestone patio, unless it's a bluestone patio with a built in fire pit. A small outdoor kitchen with clapboard siding is both convenient and stylized to coordinate with the landscape design.
