Shenandoah Kitchen - Glamorous Gold

This kitchen journey is all about embracing light and creating a space that inspires culinary creativity and effortless entertaining.

Out went the dark countertops, replaced by stunning Calacatta Solessio quartz that reflects light and creates an airy feel. The closed-in bar was removed, opening up the space to the family room and fostering a sense of connection.

The main island is a powerhouse of functionality.  An under-counter refrigerator, wine refrigerator, dishwasher, sink, trash drawer, and ample drawers coexist seamlessly, providing all the storage a chef could desire. The prep island boasts a convenient drawer microwave, while a dedicated ice machine in the bar caters to refreshment needs. The refrigerator was relocated and enlarged, offering easier access from the dining room.

Walls and cabinets were transformed with a beautiful Westhighland White paint, further enhancing the feeling of spaciousness. The wood floors were refinished to a warm medium tone, complementing the overall aesthetic. The cabinets, with their delightful details, stretch all the way to the ceiling, adding grandeur. Strategic bump-outs create additional depth and dimension, making the space even more visually intriguing.

The Carrera Marble backsplash with its gold inlay is a true statement, drawing the eye upwards and highlighting the magnificent hood and new, larger rangetop. The pantry is a dream, featuring rich wood countertops with built-in electrical outlets for countertop appliances and lighted shelves for easy organization. Gold accents throughout the space, from plumbing and hardware to lighting, backsplash details, and even the appliance handles, tie the look together and add a touch of undeniable glamour.

This kitchen is no longer just a place to cook; it's a dazzling focal point of the home, perfectly equipped for both culinary adventures and entertaining loved ones in style.
