Transitional Kitchen in Harleysville

A Bold, Bright, and Timeless Kitchen Remodel Designed for Everyday Living

Project Overview

Project Location : Harleysville, PA

Project Type : Kitchen and Living Space Remodel

Timeline : 3 Months

Budget : $190,000

This kitchen and living space were completely transformed from dated and closed-off to bright, bold, and beautifully designed. By opening up the layout into the sunroom, introducing statement finishes, and layering in unique, custom details, we created a transitional design that feels both modern and timeless, perfectly tailored to the homeowners’ lifestyle.

The Challenge

Before the remodel, this kitchen struggled with flow, style, and functionality:

Outdated oak cabinetry made the entire space feel dark

A two-tier island created cluttered prep zones and reduced usable counter space

A large structural post obstructed the view into the sunroom

A pantry layout that reduced cabinet capacity

No exterior ventilation for the cooktop, causing airflow issues

The homeowners wanted a kitchen that felt open, sophisticated, and personal, a space where bold design and functionality could finally work together.

Our Solution

We reimagined this kitchen and living area with a focus on openness, premium finishes, and custom craftsmanship. Every element was chosen to balance character and function while creating a one of a kind design.

Key Improvements

Installed a massive LVL beam to open the doorway into the sunroom, removing visual barriers and letting in more natural light

Designed a statement quartzite island with bold veining and a unique paint color, becoming the centerpiece of the kitchen

Added Currey & Company Pierrepont small blue pendant lights to create a striking, modern focal point above the island

Installed custom glass mullion cabinet doors flanking the range for elegance, depth, and display

Replaced outdated oak cabinets with Jim Bishop custom off-white cabinetry featuring Juno doors for a clean, timeless aesthetic

Added Qualis Ceramica Surfside White subway tile backsplash for texture and brightness

Upgraded to Masland Trucore Prime LVP flooring for durability and seamless flow

Installed Provia Endure sliding doors for better light and connectivity to the outdoors

Completed the space with custom furniture, window treatments, and soft finishes that complement the design
