Historic Beach House in Madison, CT

About the Design

John Fecke, owner of The Kitchen Company, designed this featured kitchen for a historic cottage renovation in Madison, CT. Tucked away from the main road in Madison's historic district, the elegant turn-of-the-century home boasts privacy and a spectacular southerly view of Long Island Sound and the rolling green of the golf course. The kitchen renovation enhanced the view by opening the floor plan to allow for an unobstructed ocean view from nearly anywhere on the first floor. The layout not only makes the kitchen seem larger within the existing space, it is also more welcoming and family-oriented.

Cabinet Details

Cabinetry is Wood-Mode custom inset in a Nordic White paint finish. The island features a seating area with beautiful walnut cabinets in Wall Street special finish. The richness of the island cabinets is contrasted by Calcutta Gold marble countertops while dark marble tops, accented by a light marble tile backsplash, make the crisp, white cabinets pop. Appliances, including refrigerator and combined gas range and oven, are Subzero and Wolf. The dining area features a wet bar with a Subzero wine cooler and icemaker as well as dark walnut cabinets to match the island. The kitchen maintains the original charm of the grand, old home but better reflects the stately charm in a more functional, family space.
