Modern shaker kitchen in dark slate blue looks stunning against the brick wall. The cabinets are complemented by marble effect quartz worktop. Bronze mirror splashback adds the wow factor to this modern extension . The island faces the back garden and this lay-out provides not just additional storage and seating but also leaves plenty of room for a dining table and sofa for a young growing family.

A breathtakingly beautiful Shaker kitchen using concept continuous frames. On one wall, a long run of Concretto Scuro is used for the worktop, splashback and integrated sink with a built-in flush hob keeping the run seamless. The bespoke full height cabinetry houses a deceivingly large pantry with open shelving and wire baskets. Either side camouflages the fridge freezer and a storage cupboard for brushes, mops and plenty of doggy treats.
