Tom and Eileen's bedroom is spacious for
a cottage and boasts an en suite full bath,

Hatches enjoy breakfast every morning at
the blue island, which harmonizes with a
cerulean subway tile backsplash.
Not the Hatches' first choice, the
showstopping tile quickly became one of
their favorite features and a focal point of
the kitchen. On the gourmet gas stove lives
a blue Le Creuset dutch oven, ready for
action. Times have changed, but the kitchen
is still the heart of the home. "ere was a
couch in here. ere was a table in here. e
washer and dryer were in here. It's where my
grandmother lived," Tom said.
When the Hatch men made the trip to Huske Hardware
to buy materials in 1937, they set out to construct a
house, and now, Tom and Eileen are profoundly home.
An updated kitchen, a mix of modern lighting, and an overlapping of textures and patterns work together to welcome guests into the
modern home. The kitchen features a popular white porcelain apron-front farmhouse sink and white marbled quartz countertops.
