and peeps, you wanna buckle your seat belt for this one. and wear a helmet. preferably a full faced one.
After the newly bedazzled kitchen is totally drool-worthy. All new stainless-steel appliances, new hardwood floors and a fancy new layout were just the start to a drop-dead gorgeous space.
In order to get the new wide entry into the kitchen, a wall had to bite the bullet.
And this was how Jeremy & I left it the last time we came to visit.
After four months, this baby is definitely an improved view. Not only does the punched-out doorway allow for more light to be shed into the kitchen and the great room, but the flow of the house has improved a trillion percent. Plus the view down to the lake from the kitchen is to DIE for. literally. you must die if you don't love it. I have all the Bower Power and if you don't like lakehouses, you must go away. just kidding. only sorta.
Back to non-rambling. The view from the kitchen into the great room before. Yes that is me. no...the other one...the one in the back.
And TA-DA! Fab, right? Dontcha just love kitchens where you can watch
When the boys took down a closet, it opened up a bunch of space for a....
...wall of custom cabinetry! I am totally digging the antiqued and rich looking white cabinets that just scream "I AM A LAKE HOUSE!" and the dark cabinets with the same details that form the island. Hello beautiful, come to momma.
And the hidden hood is just icing on the cake at this point. Like none of that gross plastic icing but the good stuff...like homemade cream cheese icing or a lemon glaze with just enough tang or a sweet buttercream icing that could send you into a diabetic seizure....all which are going to be easy to make now that the Gore's have this GORE-geous space!
