"The new owners of this early
19th-century home set in a historic
district west of Boston wanted nothing
short of a transformation. A number of
small rooms were opened to create the
new kitchen, which combines cutting-edge
design with a celebration of the
elegance and style of the home's Federal
period history. A dual-level island with
complementary wood and granite tops
separates work and gathering areas while
also giving the deep island more
dimension.
The wood top of the eating area was
custom made to match the cabinetry
color, creating a nice balance in color.
In addition to seating for four, storage
on the sides and back of the upper level
increase its function. The lower level
features a granite top, as well as a
dishwasher, built-in trash unit and a
tray base divider on the far end near
the range for easy access while
cooking."
