Hi Everyone,

Thanks so much for the great ideas! We are indeed planning to take down the cabinets between the kitchen and dining area. As for being renovated in the 80s or 90s - I thought so too at first. But if it was done it was very minimal because the sink still has the original huddee ring around, making it likely that the counters and cabinets are original. I hope there is hardwood underneath the floor, but I doubt it considering the hardwood everywhere else in the house was preserved and that the linoleum and hardwood dining room floor match up exactly in height.

For those of you who recommended quartz and icestone counters, any comments on durability?

And I sent AT a picture of the pink oven! Hopefully they can post a link to it!
Thanks again,
H

Hi Everyone,

Thanks so much for the great ideas! We are indeed planning on getting rid of the cabinets up top. As for the kitchen being renovated in the 80s or 90s - I thought so too at first, but if it was done it was minimal. The sink has the original "huddee" ring around it and so the countertops (and probably the cabinets) are likely original too. I'm doubting hardwood under the linoleum because elsewhere in the house the hardwood has been preserved.

For those of you who suggested quartz countertops and icestone - any comments on their durability?

Also, I sent in a picture of the pink oven to AT but it wasn't posted. Hopefully they can post a link to the picture!

Much thanks!
