The extension you don’t need to build.
, by Sarah Frame, 1 min reading time
Most of us, at some point, have stood in our kitchen and thought: there isn’t enough room.
Not for a proper larder, anyway. Not for the tins and the jars and the bottles and the things you bought in bulk because it seemed sensible at the time. The ones now living in a carrier bag on the floor, or queuing apologetically along the worktop.
The answer isn’t always to build an extension. Sometimes it’s a single, well-chosen piece of furniture.
This tall rustic wood larder cabinet is 180cm tall, 98cm wide and built from solid wood with a finish that gets warmer the longer you look at it. Behind the double doors you get shelves on each side, a nine-bottle wine rack, five deep internal shelves and four roomy drawers at the bottom. It’s the kind of storage that actually solves the problem rather than postponing it.
It sits on lockable industrial wheels. Which means you can move it when you need to. Most furniture can’t say that.
It works in a kitchen, obviously. But also in a dining room, a hallway, or anywhere else things have a habit of accumulating without a proper home.
It arrives fully assembled. Not in seventeen pieces with a bag of bolts and a cheerful diagram. Real wood, put together properly, delivered by people who take furniture seriously.
At £695, it costs considerably less than a building project. And it won’t take six months.
