^ bargain mansions
The beautiful Calcutta quartz on the counter is continued on the wall as the back splash makes a strong statement and the commercial 6-burner gas stove is a gourmet chef’s dream.

“BARGAIN MANSIONS” SEASON 2 WITH DIY NETWORK’S HOST AND DESIGNER TAMARA DAY
Words by ELLEN LEINWETTER & MICHELLE MICHAEL Photos by BERNADETTE EMERSON
W hen VintageKC first brought you into the behind-the-scenes world of “Bargain Mansions” in our previous Fall issue, we didn’t know just how fabulous this Kansas City home would turn out. We knew the 1920’s framework spoke for itself when it came to its architecture, but when we returned for an exclusive look weeks before our Winter issue deadline, everyone was in awe of how this house even completely redone, fit together again like a familiar puzzle and how thoughtfully preserving its past made its future even brighter.
