Remodeling Need

The homeowners of this historic West Lafayette property sought a complete renovation to modernize their kitchen, primary bathroom, and hall bathroom while maintaining the home's classic charm. The kitchen was small, outdated, and lacked storage and prep space, making it difficult for the homeowners, who frequently cook, to utilize efficiently. Both bathrooms were also outdated, with the primary bathroom requiring a separate toilet and sink, a new vanity, and modern fixtures. The hall bathroom needed a significant upgrade, including a new clawfoot tub, higher vanity, and additional linen storage.

Design Solution

For the kitchen, the renovation expanded the space into the adjacent dining area, allowing for the installation of new white painted cabinets, granite countertops, and hardwood flooring. The kitchen layout was reconfigured to include more storage, a double bowl quartz sink, new lighting, and high-end appliances, including a gas range.

In the primary bathroom, the renovation included a new tiled shower with glass doors, a separate toilet area, and a new vanity with brass fixtures. The hall bathroom was updated with a clawfoot tub, new toilet, pedestal sink, and additional storage, all in keeping with the home's historic aesthetic.

Result

The transformation of the kitchen and bathrooms has not only modernized the home but also significantly improved functionality. The kitchen now offers ample space for cooking and storage, with a bright and open layout. The primary bathroom provides the homeowners with a luxurious, private space featuring modern amenities, while the hall bathroom has been beautifully updated to offer a blend of classic style and contemporary convenience. The renovation successfully blends the historic charm of the home with modern comforts, leaving the homeowners delighted with their upgraded living spaces.
