Thinking outside the box

In planning a new kitchen, think outside the box. Your kitchen does not have to be the same shape, layout or even be in the same location. If changing the layout or moving the kitchen makes better use of the overall space in the house, the small incremental costs associated with making that change can be well worth the investment.

In this particular instance, the home was being prepped for resale. The current kitchen made an awkward shaped living room and a small dining area. But about 15 feet away was a great L shaped addition that was too narrow for a family room and not conducive for a bedroom due to the traffic flow into the utility room. But it was great for a kitchen and dining area. Plus it was bright, and afforded great views into the back and side yard.

Since electrical and plumbing updates were planned for the home, moving the kitchen made sense and was a viable option. Selecting the Nexus series helped keep the overall costs down and still allowed granite in the budget.

In addition the to affordable kitchen, IKEA products were used in bath bathrooms and the utility room. Godmorgan in the master, Lillangen in the hall bath, and Akurum in the utility.
