Scraggy Neck Kitchen Refresh

This treasured family heirloom home on Scraggy Neck had been passed down through generations, carrying decades of memories within its walls. The owners faced the challenge of modernizing the kitchen for today's entertaining needs while preserving the original charm and character that made this family home so special.

Barnes Custom Builders’ design/build team executed a thoughtful kitchen refresh that honored the home's heritage:

• Cabinet transformation with fresh paint, new door fronts, and updated hardware that respects the original style.

• Strategic stove relocation to create a more functional layout and expanded entertaining space for extended family gatherings.

• Window enlargement over the sink maximized to the fullest extent possible without structural changes, flooding the space with natural light and warmth.

The kitchen now seamlessly blends in with the home while taking advantage of modern functionality. The enlarged window creates a bright, welcoming focal point while the improved layout provides the entertaining space this family needs for their family gatherings.
