KITCHEN MAKEOVER
Whether your cooking style is Chicken Cordon Bleu , or just some great Pad Thai takeout from the corner restaurant , you need a place to prepare your meals that ’ s fun , organized and feels like home . Even in today ’ s hectic lifestyle , you ’ ll probably spend a significant amount of time each day in your kitchen .
Though it ’ s a substantial investment to update your kitchen , it ’ s a worthwhile endeavor from both a personal standpoint and a financial one . And , like bathrooms , HGTV . com estimates that a kitchen remodel can offer returns that are upwards of 100 % on the resale of your house .
According to Jamie Varner , owner of Varner Remodeling , most kitchen remodels start around $ 25,000 , and on average will range up to about $ 50,000 .
You can give your kitchen a whole new look in any style from ultra-contemporary to French country in this price range . Your designer and builder can assist you with computer-aided design ( CAD ) to help you envision your dream .
Some trends in the kitchen include spacious farm sinks that offer tons of space for food prep . Clean , white subway tile can match virtually any décor , making it a popular choice for backsplashes . Recycled glass tiles can be found in any color for a look that ’ s great for your kitchen and great for the environment as well . Varner says that mosaic tiles are frequently used and can be laid in customized patterns for a uniquely personal look .
Although cherry wood cabinets are popular , he ’ s seeing an increase in white cabinets . Cherry will give your kitchen a warm feel , while white cabinets will brighten the space and have a clean appearance .
As for flooring , Varner notes , “ You can ’ t go wrong with natural stone ,” adding that travertine is extremely popular right now . After the stone is sealed , it ’ s an easycare option for homeowners and offers a lot of longevity .
It ’ s not just about the look you want to achieve in your kitchen , it ’ s also about the way it makes you , your family and your friends feel when you ’ re there . ■
