Choosing to modernise your kitchen can be a costly but cost worthy update, especially when it comes to selling your property. A new modern kitchen can add thousands on to your property should you sell it. If you’re not looking to sell your home but your kitchen just requires an update, taking the time to select a good quality kitchen is a must, you want your kitchen to be durable and last for at least 10 years. When choosing your kitchen, you can also consider integrated appliances such as a dishwasher, oven, microwave or even fridge.

Integrated ovens look more pleasing to the eye than you old fashioned free standing appliance. With a new kitchen design you also have the opportunity to place the integrated oven in a new place. A very popular place to have an integrated oven is higher up at arms level, some say it’s a new fad.

Having an integrated oven also allows you to update your other appliances such as your microwave and dishwasher, these items can also be integrated and allows for all of your appliances to match, making your final kitchen design an eye pleaser.

If you have the space adding a workspace island into the centre of your kitchen is fantastic, the island can contain storage space, with extra cupboards and drawers. On the surface top of your island you can have your hot plate hobs. The hobs do not need to be near your integrated oven, and if you have chosen to have the oven at arms height then the hob can no longer be placed above.

Getting your kitchen style right is not an easy task but is defiantly worthwhile, adding style to your property, and convenience to your cooking space, making it much easier to host a meal with friends or family.
