Before: 1980s Original Kitchen
After: Modern Kitchen Remodel in North Andover
The original kitchen was from the 1980s and this project was the inspiration for Breckenridge Kitchen Updates. A full gut remodel was considered, but the cost was very high, and the kitchen had good bones. We kept the best parts, updated the rest and controlled the costs. The look, feel and utility completely changed!
We bring this approach to homeowners looking to transform their kitchens by balancing costs effectively without cutting corners.
-
Red oak cabinets without outdated style and hardware
Outdated Granite countertops
Outdated white tile floor
5’ x 4’ island with seating for 3
After the project was complete, the result is a stunning, modern kitchen that feels entirely new—a true kitchen remodel that balances cost-effectiveness with transformative design. Its brighter, more functional, and tailored to how the space is actually used. It’s proof that when you focus on what really matters, you don’t need a full gut renovation to achieve a completely transformed space that fits how you live. This approach not only helps control costs but also minimizes disruption to your daily life.

This featured kitchen transformation, completed in North Andover, blends thoughtful Kitchen Design with cost-effective remodeling. Rather than a full gut renovation, we focused on high-impact updates-painting cabinets, replacing doors, modifying the island, and updating countertops-to create a completely new look without the cost or disruption of a full tear-out.
It’s a perfect example of how our kitchen updates combine elements of Kitchen Remodels and Kitchen Renovations to deliver beautiful, functional spaces that fit your lifestyle and budget.
