Modesto Kitchen Remodel: Elevating Everyday Living on Oakmont Drive
When it came time for the homeowners on Oakmont Drive in Modesto to breathe new life into their aging kitchen, they turned to the team at kitchen & bath CRATE. Their goal? Create a highly functional, visually elegant space that would better serve their daily routines and become a standout feature of the home.
This project is a showcase of how strategic design, premium materials, and professional execution can transform an outdated kitchen into a beautiful and practical centerpiece. If you’re considering a Modesto kitchen remodel, this renovation is the perfect inspiration.
Cabinets
The transformation began with the installation of new, custom-built Shaker-style cabinet faces from Falton Cabinets, expertly crafted with 45° beveled inside edges. These faces were mounted to select red oak cabinet boxes, offering a warm and natural look that complements the home’s character.
Features include:
- Soft-close Blum drawer guides and hinges for smooth and quiet operation
- Satin Nickel hardware from Amerock’s Blackrock collection for a polished, modern touch
- A redesigned layout to optimize storage and appliance integration
The cabinetry upgrades added style, durability, and smart organization to the kitchen.
Countertops
Crowning the cabinetry is Calacatta Milan Quartz from Bedrosians—a luxurious choice known for its soft veining and timeless appeal.
Highlights:
- 2cm thick quartz slabs with a 2″ mitered edge for a substantial look
- Quartz windowsill custom-cut to match the countertops
- Easy maintenance and long-lasting durability
The quartz countertops provided an instant upgrade in both visual appeal and everyday usability.
Sink & Faucet
At the center of this kitchen workspace is a Blanco Diamond Super Single Bowl Undermount Sink in the rich Truffle color. It’s spacious, easy to clean, and adds an earthy warmth to the space.
Paired with it is a Kohler Bellera Touchless Faucet in Oil Rubbed Bronze along with a Badger 5 garbage disposal by InSinkErator. Together, these fixtures elevate the everyday kitchen experience with smooth functionality and subtle elegance.
Appliances
The homeowners supplied a suite of premium appliances that elevated the functionality and sophistication of the space. Featured appliances include the Bosch 36″ Counter Depth Refrigerator, offering sleek, built-in appeal and advanced cooling technology.
Culinary performance is enhanced by the Wolf 36″ Sealed Burner Rangetop, renowned for precision control and powerful heat distribution. Completing the cooking setup is the Bosch Benchmark 30″ Speed Oven & Wall Oven Combo.
Additional premium appliances include a Bosch Dishwasher, a Zephyr Monsoon II Hood, and a Danby Retro Compact Fridge in Iridium Silver, perfect for entertaining and everyday convenience.
Each appliance was carefully accounted for during layout and cabinet planning to ensure seamless integration and visual unity. Together, they support a modern lifestyle while enhancing the kitchen’s overall design.
Backsplash Tile
Adding texture and style, the backsplash features Celine – White Gloss 2″x6″ Tile from Bedrosians.
Installation details:
- Installed in a stacked horizontal pattern for a sleek, modern appearance
- Grouted with Laticrete Permacolor Grout in Light Pewter to harmonize with surrounding tones
This choice of tile brings cohesion and character to the entire kitchen.
Paint
The paint palette was chosen to keep the kitchen light, inviting, and timeless.
- Upper Cabinet exteriors: Sherwin-Williams SW 7010 White Duck in Satin
- Lower Cabinet exteriors: Sherwin-Williams SW 7633 Taupe Tone in Satin
- Walls: Sherwin-Williams SW 7010 White Duck in Eggshell
- Ceiling, Baseboards, and Casing: Sherwin-Williams SW 7551 Greek Villa
These selections tie the room together and enhance the airy atmosphere of the space.
A Kitchen Ready for Daily Living
With expertly crafted cabinetry, elegant quartz countertops, and updated fixtures, the Oakmont Drive kitchen has been completely refreshed to meet the needs of today’s homeowners. What was once an outdated and inefficient space is now a modern kitchen ready to serve for years to come.
Every aspect—from storage to lighting—was designed with purpose and beauty in mind.
We are very impressed by the professionalism that Bath Crate had as they took care of us and our project. They were punctual, informative, and friendly at every point of the remodel.
