This refreshing kitchen is light and bright and features a black walnut countertop with a Waterlox finish. The island provides incredible storage with half a dozen cupboards and the out-of-sight microwave. The display cabinet, at left, features beadboard planks, a puck light and clear shelving to illuminate its contents. Under cabinet lighting also enhances the cheerful vibe of the space. What was once a cramped and enclosed kitchen blocked by a large fireplace is now and open and refreshing place to cook family meals together. Photo credit: Real Estate Tours Oregon
