Main Kitchen ( the first of three kitchens)
The main kitchen is spacious, open and vibrant. The kitchen is open to the formal dining room and is a joy to entertain guests.
This 16×18 foot kitchen with nine foot ceilings is the main and first of three kitchens that is part of what makes up this This Old Crack House The kitchen was part of the new addition to This Old Crack House
All the elements of this kitchen were designed, build and and installed by me and my business partner with occasional help from some others involved in the remodeling process.
Off the main kitchen is a master bed room, with a walk in closet. It also feathers an HDTV and surround around home theater. These are installed in hand built cherry cabinetry.
There is an 3/4 bath, with an over sized walk in shower. It has matching custom hickory cabinets, with a special raised sink cabinet.
The master bed room and bath also has nice foot ceilings.You can enter this bath room from either the master bedroom or kitchen.
These cabinets are built out of hickory.
The floor is custom marble imported from northern Italy.
All the cabinets and counter tops were designed and built on site.
The raised panel doors are made of solid red oak.
The stained glass was designed and constructed by myself.
The wine cabinet was modeled after a plan I found in a wood working magazine. I modified it to fit my needs. All the stain glass was selected and cut in my shop, and incorporated into the design.
The paint is manufactured by Glidden and is custom mixed. It is called Magenta.
The kitchen features two stainless steel sinks.
There are 12 recessed lights in addition to three other lights on dimmers to provide several options for lighting.
The appliances are all stainless steel.
The dishwasher is build in and located in center island.
The pot rack was purchased from a local kitchen store.

Just beautiful and it is perfect too. I love the marble floor and the two sinks in the kitchen the best. It is unbelievable you learned to do all this yourself. Your home is a wow at every turn.

CharlieM1958,
Thank you for your kind words.
One set of words that comes to mind for me is “Im glad it is done ” . Now it is time to enjoy the rewards of all the hard work.
I am doing just that.

Don.
It has been and is a pleasure to share my pictures and home with you and all the other lumberjocks.
I hope to add several pictures of various rooms and the rest of the house that hasn’t got much attention.
Hopefully I haven’t over did it and there is still interest in seeing the other pictures and furniture that I have created.
