Riverdale Kitchen Renovation

This Germantown TN home, built in 1981, was last updated in 1990. The kitchen, while having great bones and a spacious footprint, was woefully uninspired and lacked function. The new layout and design, by homeowner and interior designer Katie DeRosia, makes a bold, sophisticated statement while incorporating elements to reflect the home’s traditional roots. The end result is a one of a kind culinary delight.

Design completed by Katie DeRosia - Chickadee Home Design https://www.facebook.com/chickadeehome/

Matarazzo Marble fabrication by Granite 4 Less - http://granite4lessinc.com

    Renovation efforts fixed several usability issues with the kitchen. Stovetop and ovens are combined into a single commercial grade unit now. Island is multi-purpose for food preparation, eating or buffet line. Plenty of quality lighting is available and the floors no longer tile.

    Better Image of the island prior to the renovation efforts. Space is not great for food preparations or eating. Preparing food takes a lot of effort walking back and forth to the sink, ovens, fridge, etc.
