In the kitchen, the existing layout was retained and refined. Original cabinetry was reimagined in a soft taupe finish to maintain its warmth, paired with elegant quartz countertops and a ceramic tile backsplash that brighten and modernize the space. Subtle architectural details, including picture frame molding at the peninsula, add a sense of craftsmanship while quietly improving durability. Brass hardware brings a restrained touch of shine, complementing the home’s collected character without overpowering it. Bathrooms became an opportunity to introduce moments of personality through pattern and color. In the primary suite, a chic checkerboard floor anchors the space with a timeless yet playful feel, balanced by soft finishes and irregular tile textures that add depth. The guest bath leans slightly bolder, with patterned flooring and a light pink wash on the walls that brings warmth and charm while remaining refined and approachable. Throughout the home, modern lighting, freshly refinished floors, and carefully planned artwork placement help tie old and new together. Existing pieces were thoughtfully integrated with updated finishes, allowing the home’s story to continue rather than start over. The result is a space that feels familiar yet refreshed, functional yet personal, and ready to support the next chapter of everyday life.
