Open to the great room, the kitchen is designed with bold cabinetry, clever storage and a wooden island. A brilliant blue and white color scheme keeps the eye entertained.

At the heart of the kitchen is a designated dining spot for a casual breakfast spread or dinner.

 

The breakfast bar is a stand out feature with plenty of storage and a mounted flat-screen TV. "It's so convenient," says interior designer Linda Woodrum. "The everyday things that you use are out."
