Gourmet Kitchens

Kitchens Designed for Flexibility

Kitchens are becoming a major focal point of the home as more homeowners request kitchens that are open to living and dining rooms. No longer closed off rooms, kitchens are being adorned with intricate moldings, specialty lighting, and the same specialty appliances you might find in the home of a professional chef. Imagine a chef's kitchen with a commercial grade gas cooktop, warming drawer and warming lamps. In addition, special attention is given to designer options in flooring and ceilings.

Youngquist Homes understands that flexibility is key for today's lifestyle. An expertly designed kitchen allows for swift and easy navigation to quickly prepare simple everyday meals. Yet, for special occasions, the space is open and large enough to allow the cook to entertain friends while in the midst of preparing an impressive gourmet meal.

Reduced Noise

Knowing that kitchen noise can be a big distraction while entertaining or even as part of everyday living, Youngquist Homes carefully selects products such as dishwashers with the lowest noise rating on the market, approximately 40 decibels.

To further reduce sound levels in the kitchen, Youngquist Homes has also mounted exhaust fan motors on roofs rather than use vent hoods with a fan motor at ear level.

Entertaining

Designer kitchens feature quick prep areas, often using a small butler's pantry complete with a clean up sink, microwave, and refrigerator off the main kitchen. While the party is well under way, the butler's pantry is perfect for storing dirty dishes or holding servingware including linens, crystal and china.

Youngquist Homes builds today's kitchens to be more multifunctional and welcoming. Similarly, the cooking and entertaining centers of the home are spilling into spectacular outdoor living areas.
