Cottage-Style Kitchen

Architectural detail unites the rooms. The elegant archways into the breakfast area along with the coffered ceiling truly gives this kitchen its charm. The darker woods of the wide planked oak floors, counter stools, table and chairs provide a warm contrast to the cabinetry. The height of the space allowed Salerno to stack the wall cabinets, providing plenty of storage for the homeowners.

Functional, Stylish Island

Adding cottage appeal, the island features beadboard on three sides, while the fourth side has cabinets and drawers for more storage. The island has a sink and a dishwasher to create a second preparation area that can be used in conjunction with the commercial stove.
