You can see a video walk-through of this kitchen at http://www.wwaytv3.com/comment/reply/47705. It was covered by our local television station.
This charming house had barely been updated since its construction as part of a 1940s development for the port workers of Wilmington, North Carolina. The kitchen was obsolete, but the home has a manageable size and good bones, so it works perfectly as the client’s part-time residence. After gutting the original kitchen, designer Melanie Bowe flipped its location with that of a neighboring bedroom, opening it to the backyard and living room for a more modern layout. Classic materials and plenty of antique accents add personality and patina that blends with the rest of the house.
