Maximizing Space: A Modern Kitchen Renovation in South End Barrie
Located in the vibrant community near the South End Barrie GO Station, this kitchen renovation is a masterclass in maximizing small spaces. Our client wanted to transform a dark, cramped kitchen into a bright, open-concept area that felt significantly larger without changing the home's footprint.
The Challenge: A Closed-In and Cluttered Layout
The original kitchen suffered from heavy bulkheads and upper cabinets above the sink that acted as a visual barrier, cutting the kitchen off from the dining and living rooms. Our mission was to remove these obstacles while increasing storage capacity—a common challenge for homeowners in South End Barrie's modern subdivisions.
Our Solution: Smart Design & Space Improvements
To achieve the open feel the customer desired, we executed several key design changes:
A small kitchen requires high-quality finishes to truly stand out. For this South End project, we selected:

Our Solution: Smart Design & Space Improvements
To achieve the open feel the customer desired, we executed several key design changes:
- Opening the Sightlines: We removed the dated upper cabinets above the sink. This instantly connected the kitchen to the rest of the main floor, creating a seamless flow for entertaining.
- Creative Storage Solutions: To make up for the removed upper cabinets, we added custom storage to the backside of the sink area and installed 36-inch white shaker cabinets that reach all the way to the ceiling.
- Custom Cabinetry: We maximized every inch of the floor plan by adding a custom-depth pantry and a specialized cabinet beside the stove, ensuring no space was wasted.
- Bulkhead Removal: By eliminating the bulkheads, we gained valuable vertical space, giving the kitchen a much taller, more premium appearance.
A small kitchen requires high-quality finishes to truly stand out. For this South End project, we selected:
- Countertops: A sleek, durable Quartz countertop featuring a large undermount sink for a clean, modern look and easy maintenance.
- Backsplash: A beautiful "white picket fence" tile backsplash sourced from Tile Master, which adds texture and geometric interest without overwhelming the small space.
- Hardware & Detail: The white shaker doors were paired with contemporary hardware to complete the "modern farmhouse" aesthetic that is currently in high demand across Barrie.

Had a terrific experience working with Scott and Terry. They did an amazing job on my full kitchen renovation, with so much knowledge, skill, professionalism and not to mention laughs along the way! They provided lots of information and guidance as design selections were made. Went above and beyond in being so considerate and helpful with my pet during the renovation.
