Have you ever been guilty of roaming around Barnes and Noble and bumping into a magazine called, Dream Kitchens?  I have found myself browsing the magazine because I enjoy the many designs of gourmet kitchens.  There are formal kitchens, modern kitchens, fun kitchens and some  that just don't get it....that is for me.

I do want to show you a kitchen that does turn my head and is found in a beautiful equestrian property in Palm City, FLorida, Sunflower Farms.  Sunflower House design is Southern Colonial Key West style and was inspired from an old mansion of 1850 in Key West Florida.  The estate ranks high for its superior craftsmanship and engineering.  The prize of the main house is its gourmet kitchen.

A commercial stainless stove has a metal hood that is a focal point of the kitchen.  There are two stainless dishwashers, three porcelain farmhouse sinks that were made in France, Small Bone English cabinetry, mixed black granite countertops, stained art glass, flooring as of an old English farmhouse, and most of all the stainless Traulson refrigerator.  This refrigerator was made for Sunflower House and opens four doors to the kitchen side and four doors to the pantry side.  There is a huge storage closet for several different patterns of china, and an icemaker that produces 250 lb of ice upon demand. The builder of Sunflower House designed the kitchen to house a huge pot rack that hangs from the 12 foot ceiling.

The back splash is madeof St. Louis antique bricks.There are six large brick columns that surround the kitchen.  There is a farmhouse pine table that is under the huge pot rack. There is a separate large room to the right of the farmhouse sink that serves as a pantry, laundry, and has another porcelain farmhouse sink. Sunflower Farms is an equestrian farm that is for sale.  Call for information.
