Swift Creek Cabinets & DesignA balanced mix of alder base cabinets and soft white uppers keeps the space warm and inviting, while the custom hood and patterned backsplash add tailored detail.
This space required a bit of thoughtful “surgery” to achieve the final layout. The original built-in pantry was removed, allowing us to relocate the refrigerator and introduce a functional side cabinet, which in turn created the opportunity for a double oven configuration on the kitchen side.
Originally, the refrigerator occupied the wall where the ovens are now, alongside a freestanding range. Reworking this layout significantly improved both function and flow within the space.
During demolition, we discovered the main waste line from the upstairs bathrooms running through this wall—a fairly common condition in homes of this type. Situations like this are exactly why careful planning and on-site problem solving are so important to a successful project.
The end result is a kitchen that feels intentional, balanced, and far more functional than the original layout.

Lenton Company, Inc.Modern Minimalism Meets Everyday Life in Lancaster
Project Overview
Challenge:
With three children, two cats, and frequent visits from friends and extended family, the homeowners needed a kitchen that could keep up with their active household. As certified foster parents, [LINK TO THIS MONTH’S BLOG POST] they also required secure, lockable storage for knives, alcohol, and cleaning supplies. While functional, the existing kitchen felt dated and lacked efficiency. Their vision: clean countertops, hidden appliances, and durable finishes with timeless appeal.
Design:
Lenton Company created a tailored plan that honored the family’s budget and priorities. The U-shaped layout was preserved, but the stove was moved to the opposite wall to improve flow for two active cooks. Dark green shaker-style base cabinets were paired with white uppers and quartz countertops, delivering a high-contrast, classic look. Water resistant, wood-tone flooring was installed throughout the kitchen and main living areas for durability and cohesion. The drop ceiling remained due to ductwork but was refinished for a fresh appearance.
Build:
Construction began with a full demo and was carefully sectioned off to maintain a safe environment. The remodel included all-new appliances, lighting, cabinetry, and finishes. Thoughtful features like soft-close drawers, oversized pull-out trash and recycling, locking storage, a hidden microwave, and dedicated space for a toaster oven contributed to a clutter-free and functional kitchen. Under-cabinet lighting, overhead fixtures, and a half lazy Susan further enhanced efficiency and usability.
Reveal:
In the words of our homeowners, “Working with Lenton Company made the process feel seamless and turnkey. Having the designer, project manager, and build team all under one roof was a huge advantage. Our designer really listened to our needs and design preferences, offering thoughtful layout options and guiding us toward choices that fit our style and budget. The build team was efficient, professional, and kept everything on track—and tidy! After the renovation, we knew without a doubt we had made the right decision.”
