The new kitchen was expanded by taking down a interior wall that closed off the kitchen to rear of the house. With the wall taken out light is able to come into the new kitchen space. A large island was created with a gas oven at it's center. A downdraft vent keeps the view to the outside unobstructed. A undercounter microwave is also installed to maintain limited counter space in the rest of the kitchen. New french doors lead to the sitting room. New pine flooring was laid down in the kitchen to match the existing pine floors in the other rooms.
