Moving in later next month. Need to start shopping for new kitchen this week. Love all the period features in the house, but not into victorian style kitchens.
Have open plan kitchen/ dining room with kitchen end being 9'6 x 11'6 and a seperate utility room of 10'0 x 11'0, both have very high ceilings. Want both rooms to have matching units and look. l am a real foodie and would love a walk in pantry like Nigella's, probably in the utility room. Retaining original aga surround and pantry wall cupboard doors in stripped wood in kitchen, utility is a blank canvas.
We plan to be there for the next 15-20 years (not that l expect a kitchen to last that long), so although we cannot afford a real bespoke kitchen would like it to live up to the house and be the best on our budget (DP says he wants a WOW kitchen for £15k).
l like the coloured kitchen units in either charcoal, mocha or cream with chunky and straight chrome handles. Like black granite, but not sure if budget would stretch and would it look too cold with cream units ? Have looked at MFI, Kuchen Lab & Howdens so far.
Any advice on style or suppliers appreciated.
