Kitchen


This is probably OUR favorite room in the house because we both like to cook. Wonderful smells (and meals) come from here all winter long. Then our menues are hearty with stews, soups, bread, casseroles and even cookies.

Notice that the kitchen features ceramic tile for the floors, countertops, backsplash and ALL kitchen walls. It is a ceramic-tile kitchen!

The cabinets are made of selected oak and were custom built by Joe Morgan, Cabinet Maker in Franklin for more than 30 years.

Storage space provides access through 30 doors and 10 sliding drawers.

Three of the storage units feature rotating lazy-susan shelves for storage of cooking utensils, serving vesels and containers for use in refrigerator and freezer.






In the summer we eat a lot of pasta with goodies right out of our own garden. Herbs are right outside in containers on the uncovered part of our deck.



Pantry is floor-to-ceiling and has 7 shelves, 5 of which slide out for complete and easy access.









Appliance "garage" also has four electric receptacles inside.










Four stained glass lighted fixtures commemorate the seasons











Three windows are in the kitchen area, two over sink. They provide bright sunlight throughout the winter, and all three open full length to admit cool mountain breezes in the summer.
