Kitchen & Living Room Remodel

wilma — Sat, 26 Dec 2020 18:15:33 GMT

I like this remodel. It definitely opens up the space. I think the way they redid the fireplace with stone is really nice looking. The furniture looks comfortable. I like most of the accessories. The 2 things I don’t like are the kitchen backsplash and the tables in the living area. Overall, though, a nice livable space.

WOW, what a difference. Like you, I don't care for the backsplash, but I think the reno is fabulous! What a huge difference. Looks great!

I love the after shot and I had to laugh - looking at the photos the second time, I noticed there was a man standing in the enclosed part of the kitchen.

Guess he got "removed" during the remodel!

The after is so much nicer. I agree about the backsplash though

Giving what they started with ANYTHING would have been an improvement but they definitely nailed it. I'm glad they could see the potential here because it looks great.
Lol at that man in the kitchen before. I dunno. That might not be such a bad thing though!

Very nice. Taking the wall down and opening up the kitchen and using white cabinets opens everything up. Great job. I love the stone on the fireplace.

They did a good job, and made nice choices and use of the space.

I think it is well done. Backsplash would not be my choice but I don't hate it. Glass top tables are a definite no for me....had them once and never again.

Although it is a big improvement over the before, I am not a fan of open concept rooms. I don't want to look a food prep, mess, dishes when I am entertaining nor do I want everyone in with me when I cook. I like my living room or family out of my kitchen.

Love, love, love the fireplace redo....... I do't like the glass-topped coffee and end table either....

I am over the white kitchen trend but it and the entire room is a million times better than the before.

The after is much better! Looks warm & inviting!

I'm trying to figure out what that wall is in the before?.... is that a sliding door separating the kitchen & living room? Looks odd.

@wilma The after is fabulous.

I love it, especially the fireplace. The whole area is so inviting. Clean and not overdone.

They get an A+ from me. I think it is beautiful and I love it being so open.

The remodel is beautiful esp. the stacked stone fireplace. I wouldn't use glass top tables though in the living area.

Wow - what a great remodel. Removing the wall and re-doing that fireplace is amazing. The backsplash is a minor thing, IMO, compared to the major changes that were made to these two rooms.

Well, we don't see much of the 'before', so pretty clearly the 'after' offers a more finished and more appealing vist. Nice looking room, though the living area furniture looks to be a bit predictable.
