Preston Kitchen Expansion: A Classic Entertainment Upgrade

Before
After

At Warrington Homes, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional home extensions that blend modern functionality with classic aesthetics. Our recent project in Preston is a testament to our commitment to quality and client satisfaction. This success story revolves around a comprehensive kitchen expansion and home renovation that not only enhanced the living space but also preserved the timeless charm of the property.

The Vision: Blending Modernity with Classic Charm

When Siobhan and Frank approached us, they had a clear vision for their home. They wanted to expand their kitchen while maintaining the classic elements that defined their house. The goal was to create a space that would serve as the heart of their home, perfect for entertaining guests and enjoying family time. With this vision in mind, we embarked on a journey to transform their residence in Preston.

Initial Consultation and Planning

Our first step was to understand Siobhan and Frank's needs and preferences. During our initial consultation, they expressed their desire for a spacious kitchen with modern amenities, yet one that would seamlessly integrate with the existing structure of their home. They also wanted to add an ensuite, alfresco area, and renovate several other rooms including bedrooms, laundry, dining, living areas, and their bathroom. We carefully assessed the existing layout and discussed various design options. It was evident that increasing the budget would be necessary to achieve the desired outcome without compromising on quality. With a clear plan in place, we moved forward with confidence.

Executing the Plan: Crafting Excellence

The project timeline spanned over six months, during which we meticulously executed each phase of the renovation. Our team focused on maintaining open communication with Siobhan and Frank throughout the process, ensuring their vision was brought to life down to the finest detail.

Kitchen Expansion: The Heart of the Home

The kitchen expansion was undoubtedly the centrepiece of this project. The clients opted for white cabinetry paired with dark benchtops to create a striking contrast.

To enhance functionality, we installed a central island with ample storage space and electrical outlets. The Spotted Gum hardwood floorboards added warmth and character to the room. Recessed lighting provided ample illumination while maintaining a clean aesthetic.

Seamless Integration of Modern Amenities

One of our primary objectives was to integrate modern amenities without disrupting the classic feel of the home. In the laundry room, we installed a Posh Canterbury wall 'gooseneck' sink lever set that added a contemporary touch while honouring the period-specific design elements.

In both bathrooms, we used Pastelle Sky tiles for the walls and installed Velux Skylights in the Ensuite to allow natural light to flood in. The Provincial Overhead Shower & Rail set by @armando_vicario tied together modern convenience with vintage charm also in the Ensuite.

Attention to Detail: Honouring Tradition

Throughout the renovation process, we paid close attention to detail that would preserve the home's traditional character. Higher skirting boards (118 x 18) were installed along with Colonial MDF Ultraprime 92 x 18 Architraves around windows and doors.

Inside, renovations extended to two bedrooms where we applied straightforward colour palettes (Snowy Mountain & Vivid White) on walls complemented by Spotted Gum floorboards underfoot.

Incorporating these elements ensured that while modern upgrades were made, they did not overshadow or detract from the original charm of Siobhan and Frank's home.

Creating Inviting Living Spaces

Beyond just expanding the kitchen, we aimed to create inviting living spaces throughout the house. The addition of an alfresco area out back provided an excellent spot for outdoor gatherings.
