Make your Kitchen Social with a Kitchen Island

A kitchen island makes a perfect place for friends to “catch up” or the whole family to gather while dinner’s being prepared. (A counter top peninsula works great too.) Here are some other great advantages:

  • More cabinet storage space for cookware or that new cooking “gismo” you just bought.
  • Great for kids doing homework while dinner is cooking allowing you to “keep and eye” on what’s going on.
  • Adds extra seating to kitchen area for parties, family gatherings and meals.
  • More work area for BIG cooking projects like making sugar cookies with friends and family at Christmas.

CMS offers these open floor plan with Kitchen Island options:
The Briana
The Whitmore
The Whitmore II
The Primrose
