This cherry wood kitchen remodel in Bellingham, WA began after a water leak left the original sink area damaged and unusable. After months of living with a kitchen in disrepair, the homeowners wanted to restore the space while making it more functional, organized, and personal.

The remodel focused on putting the kitchen back together in a way that improved everyday use. To add more storage and countertop space, the kitchen was extended toward the dining room, creating a more practical layout with additional cabinetry and prep area.

Upper peninsula cabinets with glass doors were installed to provide extra storage without blocking the view between the kitchen and adjacent living spaces. A tall cabinet was added at the end of the peninsula to secure the upper cabinets and create a finished, intentional look.

Warm cherry wood cabinetry gives the kitchen a classic, inviting feel, while white countertops and a subway tile backsplash keep the space bright and clean. The homeowners added their own signature touch with a cheerful green accent wall, bringing color and personality into the finished design.

The result is a functional, welcoming kitchen remodel that restored the heart of the home after water damage while adding better storage, improved flow, and a style that reflects the homeowners.
