Breakfast Bars and 4 Reasons Why They Rule

Kitchens can be complicated. Some are ready to roll, others need a little love and sometimes a lot of vision to reach their full potential. Luckily there are many ways to create character in your space. Adding a breakfast bar to your home offers up a multitude of uses to your kitchen experience. Below we’ve listed a few reasons and benefits!

1. Connect Your Spaces – A BB is the middle man between your kitchen and the next room. Adding one ensures an open floor plan and you’ll never feel left out of conversation or activities going on in the next room.

2. Additional Dining Area – Adding a BB creates more room to eat when family and friends outnumber seats at the dinner table.

3. Prep Station – When you aren’t using it for a place to eat, the extra counter space is the perfect spot to set up prep shop, especially in L shaped or smaller kitchens.

4. Cocktails Anyone? – Lastly, turn the BB into a CB and utilize the space as a cocktail bar or buffet. Everyone loves snacks.

Here to Stay on Pirates Way

Kathryn and Jeff have always dreamt of putting down roots along the Oregon coast and finding the perfect beach home to raise their young family. As past clients of mine, I was aware of their deep connection to the ocean and rivers, that surround Manzanita and the Nehalem Valley and knew finding a home immersed in these would be key.

This dream became a reality when we found them the perfect older home, located in the foothills of Neahkahnie Mountain. Situated on a large .30 acre lot with beautiful ocean views, matured fruit trees and southern exposure. The home itself is a two level ranch style, with incredible coastal views and open floor plans, offering a laid back and classic Manzanita vibe.

Congratulations, Jeff & Kathryn!
