The view to the breakfast room through the new gothic-peaked pass-through further enlarges the sense of space while preserving the intimacy of this informal dining area.
The new French doors are visible at right, just beyond the counter peninsula, which contains the dishwasher.

The main kitchen space, with its cherry cabinets and tile floor, is warm, bright and efficient.

By removing the partitions that boxed in the spiral staircase (below left), the space opens up and visually incorporates the pantry space beyond. The original nickel pantry sink, which provides an historic touch, was extensively cleaned and refurbished to showcase condition.

The old spiral staircase cluttered and cramped the main kitchen space. After the surrounding partitions were removed the existing radiator was built into a matching maple cabinet with granite top.
