Take a tour around a walnut and Parapan kitchen

To break up the expanse of walnut, the scheme includes a bank of floor-to-ceiling black Parapan cabinetry. In the centre, a large American fridge freezer by Amana is flanked by a Miele single oven on the right and a coffee machine with a warming drawer on the other side, also by Miele.

The detachable spray on this Hansgrohe tap comes in handy for rinsing large baking trays, while an In-Sink-Erator waste disposal unit attached to the sink proves an invaluable tool for mincing food scraps rather than just putting them in the bin.

The breakfast bar has real character with its curving expanse of walnut surrounding a central core of Nero Impala granite, from Marbonyx.

Integrated into the base cabinetry is a Miele wine cooler that boasts a dynamic cooling system and vibration-free compressor to keep bottles in optimum condition. The five pull-out shelves can hold up to 38 bottles and two independent temperature zones enable white and red wine to be stored here.

Positioned next to the Aga is a cutlery drawer with handmade walnut compartments that can be lifted out and carried to the breakfast bar opposite. Underneath, two deep pan drawers store Aga trays while the sleek granite worksurface above provides ample space for hot food waiting to be served.

A wash of dark acrylic cabinetry occupies an entire wall, making a bold but stylish statement in the kitchen. Floor-to-ceiling, pull-out racks either side of the fridge freezer provide ample storage for dry foodstuffs and keep cooking ingredients in one place.

A Miele coffee machine takes pride of place next to the breakfast bar while a warming drawer below provides a handy place for stirring and resting cups.

The undulating walnut breakfast bar continues into the ‘chill-out’ zone. The surrounding stools came from Dansk. For a minimalist finish, ceiling spotlights were installed to avoid interrupting the sleek design.

The built-in Miele oven offers an alternative cooking method to the Aga for the summer months. The 66-litre model comes with several automatic cooking programmes plus a self-clean option and five removable shelves.
