Alamo Classic Transitional Open Plan Kitchen

Investment Range: $215,000 - $225,000**adjusted for today’s dollars. Appliances and specialty lighting not included.
Time Frame: 14-16
Designer: Luz Lemos

This Alamo, CA, kitchen remodel transformed a cramped, inefficient transitional farmhouse-style kitchen into a bright, open-concept space designed for modern family living and entertaining. The original layout featured angled walls that disrupted flow, a peninsula that divided the room, and poorly placed appliances that made the space feel closed off and inefficient.

To create a more functional Alamo kitchen remodel, we removed multiple walls, including load-bearing sections, and relocated the kitchen to open it to the adjacent dining room. The new layout establishes a seamless connection between kitchen, dining, and living areas, with a spacious seated island, improved circulation, and significantly expanded storage and prep space. The kitchen is now the true heart of the home and ideal for both everyday living and gatherings.

The design features a timeless two-tone cabinetry palette, with cherry Shaker-style cabinetry on the island and white-painted Crystal Cabinets along the perimeter. White quartz countertops and a classic white subway tile backsplash create a clean, bright foundation. A 36” Gaggenau induction cooktop serves as a high-end focal point, paired with a retained Sub-Zero refrigerator and existing ventilation hood.

To improve functionality, the original windows were replaced with smaller awning windows, creating continuous counter space and improving usability. Medium-brown, wide plank luxury vinyl flooring adds warmth, durability, and family-friendly performance, while an oatmeal linen drum chandelier above the dining area adds a soft, modern finish.

This Alamo kitchen renovation blends open-concept design, load-bearing wall removal, custom cabinetry, luxury appliances, and durable finishes to create a bright, highly functional kitchen remodel in Alamo, CA designed for everyday living and entertaining.
