Mastering the Footprint: A High-End Kitchen, Bath, and Addition Remodel
$450,000-$500,000 in 2024
This comprehensive remodel redefines the home’s footprint by pairing an expansive, chef-inspired kitchen with a beautifully integrated sunroom and bathroom addition. The entire expansion was engineered to ensure a fluid transition, perfectly marrying high-end interior finishes with upgraded, low-maintenance exterior architecture.
A Chef's Kitchen Realized
At the heart of this remodel is a massively expanded, high-performance kitchen. By reclaiming space and executing a thoughtful layout redesign, we introduced a versatile center island and an adjacent raised-bar peninsula. The crisp Wellborn Glacier cabinetry and brilliant Infinity White Quartzite countertops provide a bright, refined canvas, elevated by Champagne Bronze hardware and Capital Lighting pendants.
The robust appliance package ensures the space is as highly functional as it is beautiful. A Wolf 36" Rangetop with an infrared griddle sits below a Champagne Bronze Delta pot filler, while the Sub-Zero refrigeration and dual GE Cafe ovens make entertaining effortless. Cleanup is expertly integrated with a 36" Ruvati workstation sink and a Cove dishwasher beneath the new backyard-facing windows.
Cohesive Interior Transitions
A successful remodel must look as though it has always belonged to the original structure. We opened up the sightlines from the new culinary space directly into the family room, allowing the natural light to flood the entire first floor. The hardwood flooring laces together flawlessly, ensuring the new square footage flows effortlessly into the existing home.
The Bonus Bathroom Addition
The newly constructed addition allowed for the creation of a tailored bonus bathroom. Warmth and contrast define this space, grounded by Matte Black Delta Stryke fixtures. The custom walk-in shower, featuring a Moroccan Hex floor tile, glossy white Speartek Riviera subway walls, and a frameless Splendor glass enclosure, delivers a highly curated, spa-like atmosphere.
Exterior Upgrades & The Sunroom
To ensure a flawless transition between the old footprint and the new sunroom extension on the exterior, we upgraded the home's envelope. We expertly integrated James Hardie Cobblestone fiber-cement siding against the original brick. By installing expansive, energy-efficient ProVia windows and finishing the architectural details with custom PVC trim, we created a low-maintenance, visually striking backyard retreat that connects perfectly to the outdoor deck.
