After nearly two decades, the homeowners of this Lakeville, MN kitchen remodel were ready to breathe new life into their space. They debated between making small aesthetic updates or going all-in on a full kitchen remodel. In the end, they chose a complete transformation.
The new kitchen now reaches to the 10-foot ceilings, with custom cabinetry that ties in with the home’s original cherry woodwork. A blend of existing and new appliances allowed us to rethink the layout for better flow and functionality. The redesigned island now features a larger prep surface, an integrated sink, and generous seating, perfect for casual meals and conversation. We also carved out a charming beverage station for morning coffee and easy grab-and-go drinks. By relocating the dining table to the sunroom and extending the wood flooring into the great room, the entire main level feels more open and connected.
Striking quartzite countertops with ocean-blue accents, a show-stopping herringbone backsplash, and subtle reeded details on the island and hood bring texture and depth. Painted in rich charcoal, the coffee bar and island base offer bold contrast to the natural cherry cabinetry, adding just the right balance of warmth and sophistication.
The result is a stunning, reimagined kitchen that truly reflects how the homeowners live today.
