Key elements of this kitchen remodel included removing the wall dividing the kitchen and dining room, creating an open-concept layout that allows light to flow freely and connects the kitchen seamlessly to the rest of the home. A multifunctional peninsula was installed in place of the wall, offering expansive countertop space for baking and entertaining, as well as generous storage on both sides.

To address structural challenges, HDR Remodeling enclosed an unusable niche and reconfigured a narrow pantry caused by the overlap with the upstairs bedroom. These changes resulted in a sleek, uninterrupted wall of full-length cabinetry and countertops, significantly improving storage capacity and visual cohesion. The exterior kitchen door was relocated to extend counter and cabinetry space along the kitchen’s perimeter while also enhancing access to the backyard and fostering a stronger indoor-outdoor connection.

The kitchen remodel retained the original placement of major appliances and fixtures, optimizing the budget while delivering a modern and efficient design. The final result is a light-filled kitchen with a clean, contemporary aesthetic that meets the homeowners’ needs for functionality, style, and budget. This project demonstrates how creative problem-solving and smart design can transform an outdated kitchen into a welcoming and practical space that enhances the entire home.
