Luxury Kitchen Remodeling Ideas to Incorporate Into Your Kitchen Remodel

When it comes to home improvement, one of the first projects many homeowners undertake is remodeling the kitchen. They are also dedicating more and more of their budget to totally makeover their kitchens. According to market research, US homeowners spent an average of $25,000 on kitchen renovations.

Most families go all out during these remodels and incorporate a touch of luxury into their kitchens by installing fancy amenities and high-end features. After all, who doesn’t want a space that looks like it belongs on the cover of a home design magazine, right? If you’re looking for ways to elevate your luxury kitchen remodel, Bluegrass Haven knows how to bring the extravagance and quality you need. With over 10 years in the remodeling business, we know what our clients need and want. So, let’s look at some fresh ideas that will have you cooking in the lap of luxury in no time.

Smart Appliances

Imagine having a fridge that makes a grocery list for you or an oven you can tell to start pre-heating while you’re on your way home. If you’re already getting new appliances for your kitchen remodel, why not equip it with cutting-edge smart appliances?

You can have complete control over the goings-on in your kitchen at the tip of your fingertips using your phone or a voice-activated assistant. And there is no need to compromise on aesthetics either. Many brands offer appliances with all the smart features you want that still have a stylish and chic look.

Built-in Appliances with Paneling

Nothing screams luxury quite like built-in appliances elegantly hidden behind custom paneling to maintain the cohesive look of the kitchen. While we can appreciate the efficiency and multi-functionality of modern appliances, the stainless steel look isn’t everyone’s cup of tea.

But you can still have a double-door refrigerator and a large oven and range without them standing out and breaking the room’s flow. You can also have other appliances like freezer drawers, microwaves, and dishwashers built into the cabinetry so they’re out of the way. To really elevate the look of your kitchen, cover them with matching paneling and hardware so they’re functional and pleasing to look at.

Custom Made Cabinets

One of the main reasons homeowners start a kitchen remodel is because they don’t like the way the old one looks. A quick way to give your kitchen a luxury makeover and avoid having it look generic is to install custom cabinetry. You can truly personalize your space and optimize the layout to suit your cooking and entertaining habits with tailor-made cabinets and shelves.

The designers at Bluegrass Haven can help you choose from a range of luxury materials and hardware to build you the kitchen of your dreams. Incorporate features like soft-close hinges and glass cabinets, or add little conveniences like pull-out spice racks and a hood cover that perfectly matches the rest of the kitchen interior.

Statement Light Fixture

To create an inviting ambiance in your kitchen, you need proper lighting. A staple of a luxury kitchen remodel is installing a lightning fixture that will act as a statement piece. An opulent chandelier or a modern multi-pendant light above the kitchen island will be the focal point of the entire room. Combined with other additional lighting sources, like recess lights, modern lights will create a cozy mood that incentivizes the family to gather together and enjoy the atmosphere.

Cabinet Lighting

Speaking of additional kitchen lighting, another idea to introduce quiet luxury into your space is to have dedicated cabinet lighting. This way, you don’t have to turn on the main light and still have perfect visibility when you want to fetch something in the middle of the night. This is what you should consider installing during your full kitchen remodel:

In-cabinet lighting: Adding lights to glass-front cabinets will draw the eye to your best china, glassware, or other decorative items you want to put on display. It’s also a functional feature, adding more light sources to the kitchen.
Under-cabinet lighting: This lighting can help illuminate the countertops and work surfaces you use for food prep. It can also draw the eye to the backsplash or any other surface you want to accentuate.

Large Kitchen Island

No luxury kitchen remodel is complete without an island to serve as the room’s focal point and a functional addition to any kitchen. It also gives you extra space for storing pots and pans or an area for a built-in dishwasher or food-warming drawer. Using butcher’s block as the work surface and incorporating a sink and garbage disposal gives you an excellent food prep area. Having a slightly raised counter portion and adding bar chairs creates a place to entertain and have drinks with guests. Consider getting a marble kitchen island with a waterfall edge for a stunning visual impact.

Walk-in Pantry

When planning a kitchen remodel, a walk-in pantry is one of the home additions you don’t want to leave out. It’s also very practical, giving you more space to store extra food and somewhere to keep smaller appliances like stand mixers and blenders.

You can incorporate custom shelving and drawers, maximizing their holding capacity by using containers for organization and storage. You can even add a space for storing wine bottles. Incorporating a small counter space in the pantry will give you a space to unload and sort your groceries, cutting down on the kitchen clutter.

Dedicated Tea And Coffee Station

Everyone has a little coffee corner delegated to a small area on their kitchen counters. But wouldn’t it be nice to have a whole caffeine station to display all your cup-of-joe-making essentials proudly?

During the kitchen remodel, add a small counter to store the espresso machine, and include a deploy cabinet or several shelves for keeping mugs, coffee beans, and tea. A small sink with a faucet and a built-in mini fridge will up the luxury scale and allow you to store other drinks here as well.

Granite or Marble Countertops and Backsplash

A guaranteed way to introduce a little luxury into your kitchen is to use natural stone materials for the work surfaces and backsplashes. Granite and marble are timeless choices that provide elegance and durability.

You can match the backsplash to the countertop or go for a more intricate design using tiles in several colors. Bluegrass Haven can help you choose a material that perfectly suits your style and preferences. With our help and the right countertops, your kitchen will easily transform from basic into elegant.
