Kitchens in Irvington
1900 to 1920 colonials and foursquares, many with original service wings
What we find here
The local pattern
Irvington houses often retain a full service wing: a butler's pantry, a back stair and a small maid's room. Those rooms are the biggest opportunity in an Irvington kitchen and the part most remodels waste.
Much of the neighbourhood sits within a historic district, so exterior changes need review. Interior kitchen work generally does not, but we check before drawing.
Recurring constraints
What usually shapes the plan
- Intact butler's pantries that can become working sculleries
- Original glazed upper cabinets worth stripping and keeping
- High ceilings that allow a taller wall run and a real cornice
- Back stairs that constrain where a larder can go

Where we stand
If your house is in Irvington, we can probably guess what is behind the plaster.
Book the survey and we will confirm it with a tape, a torch and an open electrical panel rather than a guess.
