You know we love sharing projects that INSPIRE! So we’re back with an update and completion of last month's blog, Featured In-Progress Remodel #2130.

The scope for this Littleton, Colorado project consists of a complete kitchen remodel, family room upgrade, new powder room, new large pantry, and a dream mudroom with two entrances - one from the garage and the other from the front door. After completing this project, this home is not only a new wonderful living space but now the perfect home for entertaining! So let’s do a tour…

The original plan was to open up the kitchen area as much as possible by removing a wall and allowing the existing 10-foot high ceiling to create a clear view of the family room. However, once we discovered the kitchen had a scissor truss ceiling, our opportunity for this remodel really opened up!

Scissor trusses meant none of the interior kitchen walls were load-bearing and could be removed. We adapted our initial plans, removed the existing kitchen walls and ceiling, and opened up the room.

The result is a true open concept for the entire main level, complete with 24-foot vaulted ceilings - instead of the initially planned 10 ft ones. See for yourself!
