Kitchen or Bedroom
 
Description: As you can see, with its arching ceilings and classic views, the charm potential for this as a kitchen is enormous! At the center of the house, this is a great location for the smells of freshly baked bread to waft throughout the house!
 
 
Vision: Layered colors of plaster, copper pans, vintage stove, this kitchen has the potential to be in magazines if it is done well. When one enters the finished kitchen, they should feel as if they have just walked into a scene in the middle ages, while at the same time maintaining a high level of modern functionality.
