The kitchen of House #2 was pretty closed off to the family room when we purchased the house. Because the house had recently been remodeled and already contained granite counters, we were originally just going to leave the kitchen pretty much untouched. But after looking at the kitchen closely we discovered that the granite was already cracked by the sink. Therefore...out comes the granite (which didn't hurt my feelings too much because I didn't really care for the color of the granite. Too green.). They had also used the granite on the backsplash which was 3-4" thick in some places because they had miscut the counters. All in all it was a poor installation job.
Because the counters had to come out we went ahead and rearranged the kitchen to be able to take out the wall that originally housed the fridge as you can see below.
The weird shaped opening in the ceiling in the picture below was courtesy of a contractor's foot. It always amazes me to find someone that doesn't know to NOT step on the sheetrock!
Here the granite is in and you can see the entertainment center taking shape in the background.
Here are the final pictures. The blank spot next to the door would normally contain the refrigerator but we had already moved out by the time this was taken.
