What’s in your kitchen?

No matter what type of home you live in, most would agree that a home is not complete without a welcoming kitchen. The kitchen is the center of a family’s day-to-day living where the day begins with a cup of coffee or a fueling breakfast.   In Italy, they say that the kitchen is the heart of the home because most Italian meals are prepared and eaten at home. The kitchen is a place to gather, socialize, eat and cook together.  Spending more time in your kitchen could also benefit you and your family’s health by eating home cooked meals.   So, what do buyers really want in this important space where we share our home cooked meals and bond-building conversations? According to the new study by the National Association of Home Builders’ (NAHB) book, What Home Buyers Really Want, 2021 Edition, here are the top 10 desired features in a kitchen.
