Dramatic transformation to a Tudor kitchen in Glendale
This beautiful Tudor house built in 1923 made a classic statement on a street in Glendale, California. The living room and dining room were just what you would expect with oak floors, crown molding and leaded glass windows. Then you walk through the door from the dining room into the kitchen and a time warp took you to a 1950’s kitchen with metal cabinets and a triangular cooktop peninsula.
How do I change the kitchen to make it part of the house and add functions that every cook wants? The homeowners agreed that we needed to remove everything down to the studs and start fresh. We removed all the cabinets, soffit, ceiling and floor. Due to termite damage, the 2 windows and all the framing on the east wall was replaced.
I presented two plans to the homeowners and we finalized one. We moved the sink from the diagonal corner and centered it under the smaller window.
