Our clients, a semi-retired couple in Elburn, found themselves at a pivotal moment. With their children grown and the daily hustle behind them, they were ready to transform their house into the sanctuary they had always envisioned. Turning to Ken Spears Construction, they began to reimagine their home.
With planning and a shared vision, the project took shape to deliver to them a space that not only reflects their personalities but also accommodates their newfound freedom. For this couple, working with Ken Spears Construction was not just about a kitchen renovation but about embracing a new chapter with a new space that celebrates their journey.
Overview
Their kitchen, once a functional but now dated space, needed a modern revival. The kitchen needed a fresh start, darkened, and cramped by soffits that limited storage and obstructed light. Outdated vinyl floors and laminate countertops added to its aged charm and were due for an update.
With a clear vision to remove the soffits, allowing for taller cabinets and expanded storage, the couple envisioned a kitchen that would be a hub of their home and a place of comfort and modern convenience.
Clients Objectives
Their wants for the kitchen were harmony between tradition and modern comfort. Integral to their vision was removing restrictive soffits, a step toward achieving taller cabinets that would enhance storage capacity and open up the space to natural light. Beyond functionality, they yearned to extend the beauty of hardwood flooring from adjacent rooms into the kitchen, creating a cohesive flow that would unify their home.
How We Helped Them Reach Their Objectives
With an eye for detail and a dedication to personalized craftsmanship, Ken Spears Construction worked to breathe new life into the heart of their home. First, the outdated soffits and wallpaper were removed, clearing the way for a brighter, more spacious atmosphere. Out went the vinyl flooring, replaced with hardwood that seamlessly matched the existing floors, creating a seamless flow throughout the house.
The addition of recessed lighting where the soffits once stood brought a warm, inviting glow to the space, enhancing both functionality and ambiance. A modern flush-mounted vent hood added a touch of contemporary elegance. Cabinets in a mix of crisp white and warm maple on the peninsula maximized storage and served as a stylish focal point.

Design Elements Used
In crafting the perfect kitchen oasis for our clients in Elburn, we blended functionality and aesthetics. Along the walls, pristine white painted cabinets added a touch of timeless elegance, contrasting beautifully with the warm, inviting tones of maple-stained cabinets on the peninsula. The choice of quartz countertops not only offers durability but also infuses luxury, seamlessly complementing the look.
An Elkay stainless steel under-mount sink, paired with a Moen Artifacts pull-down kitchen faucet in gleaming chrome, provided both practicality and sophistication in equal measure. The backsplash, adorned with Virginia Tile’s Crafted White 3×12 tiles, added a subtle yet distinctive texture, enhancing the kitchen’s visual appeal. Over the peninsula, a sleek flush-mounted hood offers efficient ventilation.
