This large family was hoping to modernize and improve the kitchen in their summer home on Lake Sunapee. As people that entertain often it was important to have a space that make it easy to do that. The main level was originally very broken up, with the kitchen discarded to the corner as an afterthought. The renovation removed a full bath, pantry, and wet bar to open the space for a large kitchen with an island and direct views of the lake. The old kitchen became a new dining room with shiplap ceiling and dressed columns to match the new kitchen. Upgraded appliances, storage, and a wet bar were all included as well for a luxurious and breathtaking result.
