5268 N. Williams (The Sycamore)

I love to cook, so I agonized over the kitchen design. A gas range was a must-have. The deep full-extension drawers, corner cabinet pull-outs, stainless steel shelves and 39" upper cabinets hold far more than you'd imagine a small kitchen could. The sink is extra deep and has a matte chrome faucet. We've accessorized with more space-savers: spice rack, paper towel holder, utensil holder plus a pine wall-hung folding table. The nifty halogen wire lighting system is on a dimmer and there are under-cabinet lights too. We love the mix of materials: butcher block counters, rustic saltillo tile floors (with paw prints in a few), white lacquer, steel, glass and aluminum. Dimensions: 7'1" by 10'9".
