The owners of this 1894 historic farmhouse wanted to restore the original character and charm to their home. To achieve this, the house received a new kitchen and bathrooms, as well as being rewired and replumbed, all with an eye to bringing back the details of this wonderful home. The home’s large kitchen was underutilized and housed a non-functioning fireplace. The fireplace was removed and the kitchen received new white-painted wood custom cabinets with shaker style doors and beadboard details around the island. To achieve a similar look to soapstone, honed black granite countertops were used to accentuate the period of the home. New wood windows were installed in place of aluminum and a new entry to the kitchen was created using the existing pantry, complete with beadboard paneling and bench seat for shoe storage. Our highest priority was preserving all of the unique features of the home, and incorporating some new features like the linen closet/pass-through between the Dining Room and Kitchen.
