Small kitchens work hard in Highlands NC homes. As such, maximizing the use of space is important. Not every home has the space for a large kitchen and creativity can help a small kitchen work just as well, if not better. You may not be able to add square footage but you can certainly increase its usefulness. If you are remodeling with an eye on listing a Highlands NC home for sale then make sure your small kitchen packs a punch.
Storage matters
Storage matters in a small kitchen and every square inch can be utilized. Shelves and cabinets offer a solution, as does access for higher storage spots. A kitchen island can also offer much-needed storage. Additionally, keeping counters clutter-free will help make the kitchen look larger by keeping the workspace clear. Utilizing wall space is extremely helpful for storage as well. The kitchen is a coveted room in any Highlands NC home and maximizing its usefulness is key.

Keeping counters clear is critical in a small kitchen. After all, nothing eliminates space like clutter. There is no room for knick-knacks in a small space and appliances that are not used often should be stored elsewhere. A small kitchen may not appear to have much storage but looks can be deceiving. Implementing storage in a small space often requires clever solutions and maximizing space. Keeping counters clutter-free can make make a kitchen appear larger and more functional.
Lighting impact
