Nestled in the heart of Cedarhurst, NY, this modern kitchen remodel seamlessly fuses sleek aesthetics with cutting-edge functionality. Designed for a luxury new construction home, every element of this space reflects meticulous attention to detail and a shared vision between the homeowner and their interior designer. The result? A kitchen that combines high performance with clean, minimalist appeal—crafted to redefine everyday cooking and entertaining.

Expansive Layout with a Showstopping Island

The centerpiece of this contemporary kitchen is an impressive 15-foot-long island, purposefully designed for both impact and practicality. Its dual-purpose configuration maximizes functionality:

• 40% of the island features cabinetry on both sides, providing invaluable storage.

• 60% of the island boasts a sleek concealed overhang with seating for four, offering an inviting space for casual dining or socializing.

This U-shaped layout ensures seamless workflow. The main wall houses a single sink and a 46” Viking electric cooktop, positioned for optimal cooking and cleaning efficiency. Designed for flexibility and ergonomic flow, this layout is perfect for the demands of everyday family life and elevated entertaining.

Seamless and Modern Cabinetry

Leicht's timeless and modern cabinetry is a hallmark of this kitchen remodel. Part of the Contino handleless line, the cabinetry embodies sleek sophistication with its deeply hued F45 program in 284 Carbon Grey. The result is a uniform, minimalistic aesthetic with clean lines emphasizing understated luxury.

To complement this cohesive design, storage is strategically integrated throughout the space. Four large pantry cabinets provide ample hidden storage, keeping surfaces immaculate and clutter-free. Wall cabinets with innovative electric flap-up/horizontal openings offer accessibility and a streamlined look. The space maintains a harmonious expanse of rich grey tones for a truly modern feel by forgoing glass cabinets or contrasting finishes.

Elevated Ambiance through Lighting

Lighting plays a pivotal role in enhancing the mood and functionality of this kitchen remodel. Thoughtfully selected under-cabinet LED strip lighting defines task areas while creating a sophisticated ambient glow. Interior drawer lighting takes practicality to the next level, ensuring visibility and ease of use while reinforcing the space’s commitment to luxury and precision.

Why This Modern Kitchen Stands Out

This Cedarhurst kitchen remodel exemplifies modern luxury through its thoughtful balance of aesthetics and functionality. Every aspect has been carefully selected and expertly executed, from the dramatic layout and smart storage solutions to the elevated ambient lighting and handleless cabinetry. For homeowners and designers alike, this space showcases the art of modern kitchen design at its finest.
