The kitchen itself is two-tone with handleless cabinets that sit under stone counters. The large central island will surely be the place to gather, particularly with the breakfast bar. The ceiling lantern and wide sliding doors flood the room with natural light with the latter allowing the party to spill out on to the terrace.
