The Kitchen, Dining Room & Powder Room
The original roof and floor boards from the rear el were used to create beams in the hallways, and the new kitchen, and were used to panel a new powder room in the entry hallway.

The new Kitchen addition with constructed beams of original material repurposed from the rear-el .
The new Powder Room which is fully clad (walls and ceiling) using the original sheathing from the rear-el.
To carry the history of the house’s occupants, a new captain's campaign style armoire frames the far wall of the new Kitchen. A custom campaign style built in armoire made to look like a captain’s desk to tie into the era and theme of the home.
Built-ins carry the similar shaker style of the wainscoting in the original rooms of the saltbox and finishes are historic colors mixed with brass to conjure images of sea faring habitants. The extra-long banquette seating in the dining area is made from old doors leftover on the property.
Original salvaged doors from the rear-el make up the seat and seat back of the banquette in the now Dining Room.
