Kitchen Renovation — Curtis Dr, Burgaw
This kitchen went from closed-off and dated to the centerpiece of the whole house. We widened openings to help with walking flow and bring in more light, then rebuilt from scratch: Lush green shaker cabinets with brass hardware, a granite island that stops people mid-sentence, white uppers with open shelving, subway tile, a farmhouse sink, and a built-in pantry wall with butcher block coffee bar. New LVP flooring and lighting complete it. The before photos are worth a scroll — same room, different world.
