Remodeled Kitchen with Unique Granite Table

Our 20+ year old builder grade kitchen was looking a little tired so we took the plunge and remodeled it. One unique feature I do not see too often is the granite table attached to the center island. The table is 54” round and seats 6 comfortably or 8 tight. We were a little nervous about the table concept but have been quite pleased with it, very functional. The area to the left was originally a small walled in laundry room which I blew out and replaced with a wet bar\butler pantry type area.

The second pic shows across from the wet bar area which was also part of the old laundry room. We cut a new door through (2×6 bearing wall) to the dining room. Had to relocate a cold air return to cut the door through, never fun, but well worth it. I struggled with how to handle the corner and the large corner pantry made sense, the fridge and stacked, full size washer/dryer then fell right into place, in fact I did not even have to relocate the original laundry’s gas line and outside exhaust vent line if you can believe that. My Dad and I redrew this area 10 times before we felt we got it just right.

Third pic is just another angle of the main kitchen from the wet bar/laundry area. Rewired, redrywalled, all new windows and doors throughout . Cabinets are cherry, floor is Oak. A little disapointed with the oak floor but it matched the rest of the house and was budget friendly, the rest of the kitchen was not:)

-- DONE is a "four letter word" at our house, we don't say it often.
