My rental rehab kitchen components and costs - whatdya think?

[Tandi H.]

There have been numerous posts about cabinets, counters, appliances, etc...I've read a lot of them!  Ikea vs Lowes, laminate vs granite...lots of thoughts.

Here's what I've picked out for a ~600 sq ft, 1 bed garden apartment, in a desirable B+ neighborhood.  This unit was renting for $675 (and looked like crap), but we have gutted and are redoing it and looking to get $850-950.  Maybe more if we furnish it for traveling nurses etc.  FYI it actually had two bedrooms crammed into the space, we demo'd one of them to enlarge the living area, enlarged the bathroom and are putting in a new garden door and covered patio off the living room.

Kitchen is about about 9 x 12, L-shaped with peninsula.  Long side of "L" along wall includes dishwasher, sink.  Peninsula includes slide in gas range and seating on other side.  No uppers along long wall, but a couple of long open shelves, to keep narrow space feeling more open.  See attached sketch.

Overall look is grey-toned.  Grey wood grain LVT, white and light grey walls.

Cabinets:  Lowe's Allen + Roth brand, Stonewell (med grey), 25% off this month, base cabinets and tall cabs around fridge, $2500.  

Counter:  Uba tuba granite (actually Uba tuba is charnockite, a harder type of stone than granite), $39/sq ft, includes measuring, finish, sealer, install, and 33" under-mount 60/40 double bowl stainless sink, $1850

Appliances:  Fridgidaire, new, stainless, includes island hood, slide-in 30" gas range, dishwasher, 30" fridge, $2300 (working on getting it down to $2000 with some "open box" components)

I know these aren't the cheapest, but I'm not looking for cheap I'm looking for "nice".  Like people come in and go ooh I like it and I want to pay more nice.  And like it will hold up over time nice.  

Entry to unit is at bottom edge of sketch by the way.
