Remodeling kitchens inside restored nineteenth-century cottages
The nineteenth-century cottages restored during Zionsville's 1950s-60s downtown preservation push, work recognized with an official Indiana Main Street designation in March 2025, often have small, compartmentalized original kitchens that were never designed for modern appliances or an open floor plan, so a remodel there usually starts with a structural conversation about load-bearing walls before it gets to finishes.
Newer Zionsville homes need a different kind of update
Kitchens in Zionsville's newer subdivisions west of the historic brick Main Street were built with more contemporary layouts from the start, so remodel work there is more often about refreshing cabinetry, countertops, and storage than about reworking a fundamentally undersized nineteenth-century floor plan.
