Upgrading the cabinets made a huge difference.

The paint color is a must-see.

It’s the perfect balance of spacious and cozy.

The kitchen wasn’t expanded, but the space is now used in a much smarter way.

“I loved the concrete floors, 13-foot-high ceilings … and that it was a pretty neutral canvas to work with,” the renter says. “I did not love all the gray and the super-white walls.”
