Kitchen selections

Our kitchen will not have the attached morning room, so cabinets will cross over to both walls. We did however upgrade to the gourmet island.

We priced out granite at the big box and smaller local granite stores, and decided the Ryan price was not crazy, but we could still save money by doing it later and not have that additional cost raise our final sales price.

One thing to keep in mind is that Ryan charges the same amount for granite in your kitchen whether you get no island, the small island, or the gourmet 8ft island.  That's crazy. The gourmet island effectively doubles your total counter space from roughly 30sqft up to 60sqft.  So if you get anything less than the gourmet island you definitely should skip the upgrade and have it done later.

Color-wise we went with the Jamocha laminate and the Tahoe Cherry Bordeaux cabinets.
