A kitchen for all seasons, friends and family. This renovation began by updating the timbers to open up the space flowing from kitchen into the dining and living room areas. Reclaimed oak island and white cabinets create an inviting place to be.

In the kitchen, the island's stained cabinetry is topped with marble, while the painted perimeter cabinets have a soapstone countertop. "The contrast of the two is really pretty together, but it's also a good balance for functionality" Mona says, noting the marble requires more caution and care while the soapstone can stand up to pans straight from the oven. The home's only dining space is located between the kitchen and living room. Upholstered host and hostess chairs and an eye-catching chandelier help to define the area in the open floor plan. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................ .......................................................................................................
