The maple units have been painted in Blossom by Dulux and finished with a matt varnish, while the detailing is in Antique Gold acrylic paint and Plasti-kote fast-drying enamel.

A huge four-oven Aga takes centre stage in the kitchen and creates a striking focal point, contrasting dramatically with the granite worksurface and splashback.

3/7 Cornice detailing

On the cornicing, the gold paint has been applied with a rag for an antique feel, which means it can be touched up easily.

4/7 Crystal handles

Lead crystal door handles on the cabinet doors add a final note of opulence. The colour scheme was originally inspired by the tones in the Kashmari granite from Manchester Marble.

5/7 Cupboard detail

A cupboard to the side of the Aga has a solid walnut interior, as do all of the kitchen's bespoke cabinets and drawers. The cabinets are from Tom Howley Bespoke Furniture.

6/7 Tap

The elegant shape of the three-hole mixer tap from Perrin & Rowe complements the kitchen design perfectly.

Neatly tucked away in the island unit, an oven and wine fridge sit happily side by side. The homeowner decided to install a conventional oven and hob, as well as the Aga to use in the summer.
