Kitchen and Solarium Remodel - New England Design & Construction

Kitchen, Solarium, & First Floor Remodel

This Jamaica Plain couple purchased a very outdated townhouse that was claustrophobic and dark. NEDC transformed the space by opening up the circulation, refinishing and updating the space, and gutting the kitchen. Beautiful original brick was brought back to it’s natural exposed condition, and the solarium footprint opened up to bring light into the living and kitchen areas. A built-in banquette was constructed in the solarium, allowing a very functional and stunning space to sit and interact with someone while cooking, or hang out and enjoy a glass of wine. In fact, the owner confessed that even though they have a home office upstairs, they prefer to do work sitting at the big table in the solarium because the energy of the space is so uplifting.

The kitchen features an oversize island, and a modern mix of industrial and eclectic features like wooden drawer pulls, exposed pipe shelf supports, and natural brick. On-trend grey cabinetry interfaces with a lighter cream color in the upper cabinets, and is offset by white engineered quartz counters.

A new mudroom was created with shelving and a perching place to discard muddy boots, and a pantry was remodeled to support an active cooking family. Walls were removed between the solarium and the living room area, with the closets in that room updated.

Additionally, a small half bath was gutted, with the natural brick again brought to the surface and celebrated, along with plumbing fixtures that better fit the scale of the space.
