So, owning a celebrity kitchen must be impossible, surely? But what if there was a way you could own a celebrity kitchen for a fraction of its original cost and even better than that, save it going to landfill? Well, there is. For most, the kitchen is the heart of the home, and for good reason too. It’s a room we use almost every day for family meals, dinner parties and in more recent years, it has also been known to double up as office space as many of us work from home. It is no surprise that many are wanting to take on a new kitchen project and give this new multi-use space a revamp. A striking kitchen will not only be the envy of all your friends, it will also add value to your property when it comes to selling your home, especially if you have a one-of-a-kind celebrity kitchen. So how can you bag yourself a celebrity kitchen at a fraction of the cost? Well, it is a well-known fact that high end – let alone celebrity status – kitchens are expensive, with the world’s most expensive kitchen, the opulent ‘Fiore di Cristallo’, complete with crystal chandeliers and worktops, costing a jaw-dropping £1.2 million. However, the dream of a formerly owned celebrity kitchen can be within your reach. The Used Kitchen Company offers beautiful, bespoke, ex-display, used or cancelled order, high-end kitchens from top British designers like Mark Wilkinson and Tom Howley, along with the ultra-modern German engineered kitchens such as Siematic, Bulthaup and Poggenpohl – all for a fraction of their retail value. What’s more, some of these approved used kitchens were even owned by well-known celebrities, footballers and famous chefs. With hundreds of kitchens to choose from, many with top-of-the-range appliances and worktops, more than 39 brands, ranging from £1,750 to £50,000, it makes sense to have a look before your kitchen designer arrives to give you the big sell. Not only will you be able to buy your dream celebrity kitchen for less, you’ll also be helping to prevent the hundreds of tonnes of kitchen waste that still sadly ends up in landfill. Adopting a recycled kitchens means you can have the top-of-the-range appliances you’ve only ever dreamt of owning, instead of high street alternatives. Top-of-the-range quartz or granite worktops and cabinetry that’s set to last. Not keen on the colour? Opt for a painted kitchen and simply repaint to what works for your new home.
