Our 198 sqft full, operational kitchen features two massive surfaces for shooting, prepping, and cooking. One custom-made granite slab table (6 ft x 3.5 ft) and a ceramic tile island with decorative inlay (11 ft x 5 ft). The cabinets are handcrafted cedar, matching the wood throughout the rest of the loft. The kitchen features a farmhouse sink, a built-in walnut butcher's block, and a full suite of kitchen tools (pots, pans, plates, cups, etc.) for your use during the rental.
