Oakton Kitchen & Main Level Remodel
We started with a small galley kitchen and combined it with the adjoining sitting room to form a large chef's kitchen with custom cabinets. This required relocating the plumbing for the 2nd floor hall bathroom to a new chase insulated for sound reduction. The main load bearing wall was removed and replaced with a recessed beam to open the view to the living room. Guests can now interact with those in the kitchen without being under foot.
Counter space increased from 28 square feet to 90 square feet. Storage galore with lots of drawer space. Two sinks create different stations for prep work and clean up. High end appliances include an induction cooktop with an exhaust hood that lets you cook and blow dry your hair at the same time. A wall oven with a side swing door and column Fridge/Freezer units for maximum storage.
A new powder room that looks like it belongs in a high end restaurant with floating countertops and art work that lights up via motion detector. New wide plank flooring throughout the main level along with tons of recessed lighting. Marvin Windows and Doors along with many other features. The home theater system was updated with in wall and ceiling surround speakers with the latest Dolby Atmos technology. Come take the tour!

Clifton Kitchen Remodel
Removed the soffits and hanging cabinets to create a more open feel. Additional cabinetry was added to increase storage. Refinished the hardwood to allow the cabinets to pop.
Reston Kitchen Remodel
Our clients live in a smaller townhouse in Reston. They love their neighborhood and the amenities of Reston. They wanted to stay in their home but make better use of the existing space. They loved that we could re-imaging the space, open multiple load bearing walls and give them the kitchen they really wanted. This type of project is perfect for someone planning to stay in a home for 7+ years at a minimum. Initially it will seem that the remodel is expensive compared to the value of the home.
However you will not find an inner suburb home where the value of the home plus the remodel is equal to homes at the next level. Homes at the next level may not even have the updated amenities you want. So why not stay put, upgrade and over time the value of your home will catch up with the remodel. You will have many years to enjoy it! We also wanted to point out that when we open the old walls, the kitchen is only extended 2-3' outside of its old footprint. You don't need to take over all of the adjacent space if you want to keep a table or a nice size living room.

Second - make the deck easily accessible via new french doors from the dining room.
