A Dated 1980’s Home Gets a Bigger, Brighter Look

Another beautiful home renovation, complete! Our most recent project features a remodeled kitchen, powder bath, den and bar area of a 1980’s home in Colleyville, TX. The closed off, dated rooms now showcase a spacious floor plan, bright atmosphere, a modern design, and of course, happy clients!

Final photos by the talented Todd Ramsey at Impressia (www.impressia.net).

The home’s original 1980’s kitchen was dated and lacked the functionality and openness the clients wanted.

The home’s bar space and den were isolated from the kitchen and dining area, which wasn’t ideal for hosting

The original den needed updating and a more mature look.

The powder bath, just off the kitchen, was dated and had no storage space.

After taking photos and measurements, our designers were able to create detailed floor plans and 3-D renderings to illustrate how the remodeled spaces would look once the renovations were complete.

One of the most obvious changes was the removal of the peninsula, which was replaced with a beautiful new island. This design choice not only opened up the kitchen and improved traffic flow, but also provided for a cooktop to be incorporated into the island, freeing up some counter space where the stove used to be and allowing for additional cabinets.

The island also featured a handy pull-out spice rack and drawer conveniently located beside the cooktop for improved functionality when prepping and cooking meals.

Though the refrigerator was kept in its original location, our designers created a built-in look by installing custom cabinetry around it. Increasing the cabinet height throughout the kitchen contributed to the sleek, modern look and increased storage space. Over and under cabinet lighting helped to brighten the kitchen and make it feel larger.

One of our favorite features of this project is the pull-out pantry beside the fridge. Talk about a smart space saver! We were also able to save space by stacking the microwave and double oven in a built-in cabinet.

In place of the old stove and microwave is now extra cabinet and counter top space. We also installed a convenient appliance garage and corner display shelves and relocated the sink for an improved layout.

Removing the wall also allowed for extra cabinets to be installed at the end of the bar and presented a beautiful view of the display loft above the bar, which we installed lighting in.

The remodeled bar area is the perfect place for guests to sit and chat without being isolated from the kitchen or dining area. The beautiful stone backsplash, granite counters and wood stain matches what was used in the kitchen, really pulling the space together.

Below the bar top, there are additional drawers, cabinets, a wine bottle holder, and glass front beverage center.

Where there once were cluttered open shelves behind the bar, there are now stylish, distressed glass front cabinets.

In the den across from the bar is a stunning new fireplace and lighted display cabinets. The stone fireplace correlates with the backsplash used in the bar and the kitchen, and a rustic mantle was mounted just below the TV.

The client’s desk area was an issue before the remodel, as it blocked the walkway between the kitchen and den. We were able to take some space from the powder bathroom behind the desk and actually inset the workspace so it is no longer obstructing the walkway. The client also has new built-in cabinets and drawers to store office supplies around the computer!

The powder room just off the kitchen incorporated a pedestal sink and no storage space. We replaced the old sink with a vessel sink vanity and installed a matching linen cabinet. Beautiful and functional!
