Kitchen – 2111

This townhome located on Lake Anna of Reston, VA owned a confined galley kitchen with a very limited cabinet space, short wall cabinets, big closet taking over big portion of kitchen, duct chase creating a big barrier, plumbing chases causing bulkhead and a bearing wall header to name a few of obstacles.

Their dream was to walk in from front door and have a clear view of wall to wall scenic view of the lake.

Modernize the kitchen, eliminate bearing walls, lots of storage, upgraded appliances and so much more.

They have been chasing this dream for years and have been turned down by multiple firms due to level of difficulty of the project, budget constraint and as she put it “cleeking with a design firm that can feel her needs”.

Our staffs pent countless number of hours to hear her and bring her dream to reality.

The main constraint was the bearing wall on corner of foyer and living room, which was a closet, main duct chase and return ducts, obscene amount of plumbing and not to mention structural load.

By the way of re-routing mechanical chases, and reformulating all second-floor plumbing stack to back walls, and then inserting few structural beams that transfer the second-floor joists to front and back wall, we have accomplished the biggest goals of all and created the view open floor plan.

Now home to a big island with cook top and beverage center. The home has front to back clear view of the scenic lake.

With expanding the kitchen into front breakfast area, we have doubled up on storage and cabinet space.

Long line of gorgeous counter top and full backsplash under new Led lighting has glorified this kitchen project.

The linear porcelain floor tile has complimented the counter top and her trophy accessories.

She never thought of the day that she can cook and entertain in her dream kitchen.
