Phase 1:
Demolition Plan
The dashed lines represent the walls and kitchen peninsula to be removed. It also shows the doors, windows, and appliances to be replaced.
Phase 1:
Floor Plan
The added and remaining walls from the demo plan are poché’d in ink. The rooms are defined with furniture. The former study is converted into a guest bedroom with a closet. The kitchen is opened up to provide more counter space. The old washer location became a corner pantry and the former pantry became a linen closet with a stacked washer and dryer.
