Gracious Family Kitchen

Top quality finishes meet formal style.

The large, formal kitchen comfortably hosts casual family dinners as well as larger gatherings for 10 or 12. Ceiling-height cabinets painted a soft white keep the look fresh and sophisticated. White Calacatta marble on the counters and crema marfil flooring give the space the feel of a French estate. A dark walnut island with a Belgian black marble top adds drama. The coffered ceiling lends an old world elegance.
