The existing kitchen was a work in progress, with many items left unfinished or exposed. We renovated the entire kitchen, leaving the sink and range in the same locations, but re-vamping all of the finishes except for the existing clay red floor tile which runs throughout the house. Unlike most kitchens, the existing kitchen had wonderful lighting and extensive views to the outside due to strategically placed windows between the countertop and the wall cabinets as well as large casement windows on either end of the galley kitchen. New custom kitchen cabinets with stainless shell pulls were installed between the large casement windows to maintain the views and light quality. The countertop is a white low maintenance quartz material. A tall band of white glass tiles run along the backsplash to underline the long bank of windows. Opposite the work counter is a bank of tall cabinets housing the pantry, utility closet, refrigerator, water heater, and a built-in microwave. We re-used the ingeniously located track lighting and track heads, replacing the existing mismatched CFL bulbs with all new LED bulbs throughout the house. We also added new LED undercabinet lighting along the work counter to provide task lighting.
