Before: A Cramped Kitchen Gets A Massive Overhaul

by on Jan 20, 2015

Renovating this kitchen was no small feat. Sure, the owners could have just installed new appliances and called it a day. But instead, they tackled a massive gut renovation that transformed the space from an outdated eyesore to a contemporary dream kitchen.

  “Location, location, location,” is what they always say in the real estate industry. This home, located on the fringes of beautiful Newton Centre, Massachusetts, sits on a quiet tree-lined street within easy walking distance of nearby shops and restaurants. It was one of those properties that required a set of rose colored glasses to see its full potential. The kitchen was outdated and impractical. But that didn’t stop owners Julie Watts and Bob Cohen; they had a vision for the space, and it didn’t include rust colored floors or antiquated cabinetry.

Julie and Bob, along with their architect Jim Higgins, imagined the space like a blank slate, choosing to remove walls and rethink the layout in order to make the space more open. The tight corners and dead space in the middle of the kitchen had to go… and boy, did they ever.
