Little Sebago Kitchen
On this
particular job, the plan is to totally revamp the kitchen
which will involve the following:
Strip the
walls & ceiling and insulate, install new sheet rock, as
well install a new coat closet, washer/dryer space,
re-locate bedroom entries, build a custom bench for dining
nook, new windows, new entry door, total re-wiring and
finish off with a brand new fireplace & hearth and
re-finished oak flooring. Oh and of course and brand new set
of kitchen cabinets with granite countertops and appliances.
So here we
go......
