Kitchen viewKitchen Renovation and addition of new Butler's pantry.
The project involved changing the old-style kitchen with dated cabinets and benchtop/splashback to a new and modern look using Kaboodle cabinetry. The existing cooktop, rangehood and oven were retained ensuring minimal wastage and expense. The position of the oven was lowered underneath the bench to open out the kitchen and add to the bench space. A walk in butler's pantry was also created by subdividing the room adjacent to the kitchen, to which the dishwasher was moved. The pantry provided extra space to store food items and kitchen appliances helping to keep the kitchen clutter free.
