Jersey Chateau

The owners of this house moved to Jersey when they retired, buying an impressive chateau-style property with exceptional views across a splendid bay. We were asked to create an inviting, new custom kitchen with soft styling and a light coastal feel.

It also had to have a built-in bar area for weekend entertaining. Inspired by its setting, the colours throughout this kitchen are determinedly soft and natural, from the American Black Walnut island to the aged limestone floor and antique mirror glass behind the cooking zone, which is defined by a generous mantel. The cabinetry too, is painted in rich neutrals – with a splash of stunning sea blue on the full height cupboards which conceal the fridge and freezer. Floor "Aged Avabah" Martin Moore Stone.
