A Cohesive Kitchen Remodel: From Compartmentalized to Connected

Haymarket Kitchen Remodel: A Unified, Open-Concept Redesign

At Craftsman Construction, we believe that great design transforms not only the way a space looks—but how it functions for everyday life. Our recent kitchen remodel in Haymarket, VA is a perfect example of how smart design can unlock a home’s full potential.

Reimagining the Heart of the Home

This project began with a challenge: the original space was divided into three disconnected rooms that lacked both flow and functionality. Our client wanted something more open, practical, and beautiful—a space where the kitchen could truly serve as the heart of the home.

Our solution was a complete layout reimagining. We merged the three rooms into one cohesive and highly functional living space, creating a seamless connection between the kitchen, living area, laundry room, and powder room.

Opening the Space and Letting the Light In

To support the new open layout, we expanded natural light throughout the space. A small window above the kitchen sink was replaced with a double casement window, flooding the room with daylight. We also replaced the old single exterior door with a space-saving double outswing door, enhancing both access and aesthetics.

We added a new walk-in pantry with a sliding barn door, maximizing storage while maintaining an efficient floor plan.

Central Island and Premium Appliances

A large central island became the showpiece of the kitchen. With cabinetry on both sides, a built-in microwave drawer, and a second sink, the island offers both functionality and hospitality—perfect for meal prep, casual dining, or entertaining.

To meet our client’s cooking and hosting needs, we installed a lineup of premium appliances, including:

  • Built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator with a slide-out pantry
  • Induction range, wall oven, and warming drawer
  • Custom range hood with a powerful 1,000 CFM fan
  • Full-size dishwasher and garbage disposal

Entertaining-Ready Features

The remodel also includes a dedicated buffet area with an under-counter wine fridge and beverage refrigerator—ideal for entertaining, holidays, or family gatherings.

Finishing Touches for Cohesion

To bring it all together, we carried the same cabinetry style and finishes into the adjacent laundry room and powder room, ensuring a unified, modern look across all connected spaces.

Final Thoughts

This Haymarket remodel exemplifies what we do best at Craftsman Construction: solving complex spatial problems with thoughtful design and high-performance solutions. The result is a light-filled, multifunctional space that’s built for the way our clients actually live.
