different with the natural light in the cottage, compared<br />

to how they looked in the showroom,” continues Tony.<br />

The cabinets chosen are custom-made clean-lined<br />

Shaker-style doors with applied bead and a mix of<br />

glass and solid panels. The built-in cabinets and shelves<br />

are finished in Cabinetree’s own Morning Dew colour<br />

along with antique brushed nickel handles, to make<br />

an efficient use of the space. Clear leaded glass doors<br />

allow an attractive display of stemware. Unique features<br />

include the cabinet to the right of the oven which flips<br />

up to store small appliances, and the fridge, which is<br />

completely hidden by cabinetry for visual continuity.<br />

A large 10’ x 6’ eat-in maple island, stained in a warm<br />

grey Stone Henge, is the focal point of the new space,<br />

with seating for five or six people, a sink, dishwasher,<br />

and microwave, along with lots of storage.<br />

“The island is a gathering spot for our guests at<br />

breakfast time, with people sitting and milling around<br />

it,” continues Tony. “Cabinetree sourced one large slab<br />

of Vicostone’s Borghini Quartz for the top so that it<br />

didn’t have to be fitted in pieces.”<br />

Cabinetree celebrating 30 years of business<br />

building cabinets for beautiful kitchens, bathrooms and more<br />

A bar/beverage centre at one end near the great room<br />

allows for ease of entertaining, with wine fridge and<br />

bottle storage, and a coffee and tea station.<br />

One of the original windows which was below counter<br />

height was reconfigured to match the other, and both<br />

now let in lots of light. The space is illuminated by<br />

LED lights on the ceiling, LED strips within and under<br />

the glass cabinets, and the overhanging glass-covered<br />

lights over the island that allow for clear sightlines<br />

throughout the main floor.<br />

“The new space is completely different – it’s night and<br />

day compared to how it was,” says Tony. “It’s so much<br />

brighter, more open and inviting, with more flow to the<br />

expansive great room. Cabinetree was great to work<br />

with, and they accommodated our schedule all through<br />

the process, including when we had a large party<br />

before all the work was completed! I would highly<br />

recommend them.”<br />

“This modern kitchen blends traditional elements with<br />

an elevated style for a bright, clean inviting space,”<br />

says Beverly.<br />

Celebrating 30 years in business, Cabinetree builds<br />

cabinets for beautiful kitchens, bathrooms and more,<br />

for residential and commercial projects, all made<br />

in Peterborough. Located on Neal Drive, they have<br />

an expansive showroom in front and a complete<br />

manufacturing facility in the back, where they combine<br />

quality craftsmanship, cutting edge technology, design<br />

savvy and years of hands-on experience to construct<br />

cabinets in styles from ultra modern to traditional.<br />

With a vast selection to choose from, they’ve perfected<br />

their own line of beautifully stained doors and have<br />

recently included earth friendly water-based spray<br />

stains to their line. They know and appreciate the<br />

subtleties of various woods, so that customers can<br />

select preferences from colour to grain patterns in their<br />

favorite woods. As cabinetmakers, they love what they<br />

do and it shows in all of their projects.<br />

Vicostone’s Borghini Quartz carries over into the other<br />

countertops, and into the backsplash, which Beverly<br />

says is becoming more common now.<br />

www.greenhouseontheriver.com<br />

“Quartz is a good backsplash alternative if you don’t<br />

want to have grout lines,” says Beverly. “The marble<br />

veining and the colours flow nicely with the other<br />

countertops and the island for a seamless look.”<br />
