We renovated our kitchen in an a 1930s house. The previous renovation was done in the 1970s.
Lee built everything himself, using materials from Bunnings and IKEA. He spent about $5000.
The previous kitchen had no space for preparing food, the double sink took up all of the bench space. There was only enough room for one person at a time. We wanted to plan for a dishwasher and a bigger stove. We built a storage unit in the living room (as seen on the right on the photos) that now stores all of the food, allowing for more space in the kitchen.
We are very happy with the result. Now the kitchen is much more spacious, bright, and functional. There are still elements we’d like to improve, as always, but Lee has done an amazing job so far!
