The Beacon Kitchen


Nestled along the water, The Beacon House combines timeless materials with thoughtful craftsmanship to create a warm and inviting lakeside retreat. Working alongside Bowman Woodworking, Johnson Granite provided surfaces for the kitchen and powder bath, pairing dramatic black soapstone with elegant Cambria Brittanicca quartz for a look that is both sophisticated and approachable.

The Story


The Ashford Kitchen is a perfect example of how natural materials can create a space that feels both sophisticated and welcoming. Rich wood tones bring warmth and texture, while the black soapstone countertops introduce contrast and timeless appeal.


Known for its soft, matte appearance and natural movement, soapstone develops character over time, making it a favorite choice for homeowners seeking a lived-in, collected aesthetic. The result is a kitchen that feels rooted in tradition while remaining perfectly suited for modern living.

The Kitchen


The kitchen centers around the dramatic beauty of black soapstone countertops. Their deep color and organic veining provide a stunning contrast against the surrounding wood elements, creating a balance of warmth and sophistication.


Beyond its visual appeal, soapstone is highly durable and naturally resistant to stains and heat, making it an ideal surface for a hardworking kitchen. The combination of natural wood and soapstone gives the space a timeless quality that will continue to age beautifully for years to come.
