Kitchens are the heart and hub of the home. That’s true for day-to-day living and entertaining, too – from family dinners and intimate gatherings to holiday parties.

Here’s food for thought. Modern families, foodies and top chefs all know a kitchen is also where the hard work gets done. Meal prep is a labor of love. Food chemistry takes time. And clean-up is not for the faint of heart.

At Tri Pointe Homes Austin, every kitchen we design is ready for real life. And for serious appetites. Our optional Gourmet Kitchen is ready to deliver. Available on all floorplans, this option is chic and functional, fully loaded with state-of-the-art touches you’ll love.

Just ask local food artist, Chef Rene Helit; he gave our Gourmet Kitchen a test run (and one enthusiastic knife flip)! Or keep reading for 3 reasons our Gourmet Kitchen option is perfect for your entertaining needs...

  1. Smart Design Streamlines Meal Prep

To design our Gourmet Kitchen, we donned an apron and toque and thought like a chef. That included considering crucial details like traffic flow, the width of walkways, counter height and door swing. Our designers thought of everything to optimize kitchen layout so you can focus on meal prep. Plus, we provided plenty of storage for essential ingredients and your favorite gadgets.

  1. High-End Finishes Add More Than Style

A Gourmet Kitchen isn’t complete without high-end fixtures and appliances. Picture a stainless steel undermount sink and a built-in gas cooktop, wall oven and designer wall-mount hood. Select stylish, soft-close cabinets. Add a sleek touch faucet and water filtration system. This eye-catching kitchen is sure to inspire your culinary creativity. And while we can’t guarantee a five-star review, a new Gourmet Kitchen allows you to keep your workspace clean and organized while cooking food evenly for healthier, tastier meals.

  1. Modern Ambiance Creates a Warm Welcome

From the moment guests arrive, your Gourmet Kitchen will help them feel right at home. Maybe it’s the open, inviting layout. Or the soft lighting. Or the generous island with plenty of seating. The relaxed ambiance creates a warm welcome. And entertaining will feel effortless since you can greet friends, raise a glass and keep an eye on dinner – all at the same time.
