OLD-WORLD CHARM MEETS MODERN CONVENIENCE

This is a finely-crafted Farmers kitchen, designed by Lindy McGrath of Watermark Design and expertly built and installed by the capable team at Kitchens Victoria. It is both refined and functional and creates a superb central focus within the family’s living area. Inspired by key elements from an earlier period of architectural history, this kitchen provides a sense of grandeur, symmetry, and visual balance within an exquisite family living space.

Flanked by a large handcrafted stone fireplace and privy to a remarkable view of the rear garden through a raked glass, stone, and timber wall, this kitchen is clearly an outstanding fit-out.

The owners wanted a timeless, high-quality Farmers kitchen – a kitchen capable of complementing their beautiful new home, while standing the test of time. The kitchen’s old-world charm coupled with discreet internal technological features provides the owners with exactly what they required.The owners’ criteria included task-specific areas for storing food and equipment within close proximity of usage, as well as a peripheral fridge location for easy family access. These were just two of the many important considerations Kitchens Victoria took into account throughout the design process.

The other main features of the kitchen include a grand ornamental chimneypiece to complement the high raked ceiling, a separate dishwasher, sink, and waste bin zone for efficient clean-up, walk-in pantry with microwave facility situated away from the main work area, and a large island bench with secret rear storage and ample space for meals and work. Attractive, internally-lit mirrored display cabinets on each side of the chimneypiece provide a sense of depth and visual interest.

Kitchens Victoria has allocated adequate space between the major task areas, resulting in a highly functional kitchen. All kitchen items are located close to their specific task zones, creating an ergonomically sound environment. The location of the island bench allows for plenty of free movement into and throughout the kitchen.
