Southside Allentown Kitchen Renovation

Project Story

This Southside Allentown house had dated finishes across the kitchen and connected interior rooms: oak cabinets, older tile and carpet, stronger wall colors, and dark stained trim. Vene Construction refreshed the home with a white kitchen, wood-look plank flooring, lighter interior paint, white trim, hallway finishes, and stair finish work.

The Starting Point

The kitchen and connected rooms had dated finishes that made the house feel darker and more segmented. The before photos show oak cabinets, older tile flooring, carpeted rooms and stairs, stronger wall colors, and dark stained trim through the hallway and living areas.

The Solution

Vene Construction updated the interior with a brighter kitchen, new wood-look plank flooring, lighter wall paint, white trim, updated hallway finishes, and finished stairs. The kitchen received white shaker-style cabinets, light counters, a tile backsplash, stainless appliances, and open shelf details.
