Near-White Classic Kitchen

Near-white classic kitchens remain popular. That said, most now include pops of colour, like this Carnegie Stone Grey and Claret range.

Classic Farmhouse Kitchen

Hatfield in Moonlight Blue and Highland Stone brings gravitas to this classic kitchen without trading off farmhouse kitchen nostalgia.

Classic Shaker Kitchen

Promoting classic kitchen detail, our Ashbourne Windsor Blue range, paired here with white worktops, shows off its sharp Shaker doors.

What Is a Classic Kitchen?

Inspired by neoclassicism, these kitchens mix dependable Shaker design with ornate grandeur.

Neoclassicism promotes beauty through traditional media and ornate design. European craftspeople prettified Shaker doors to perpetuate these values in classic kitchens. Today, we uphold this tradition.

Typified by their intricate beading, classic kitchens stand out from simple Shaker designs. At Masterclass, we offer four unique classic kitchen designs, each one in dozens of colour and finish combinations.

Classic kitchen with open kitchen pantry unit

Favoured by homeowners with traditional tastes, classic kitchens are typically well-used by whoever cooks. Hence, they work best with storage solutions that overflow with character, like our Lansbury and Hathaway pantries.

Dark blue classic kitchen with ornate cooker hood with corbels

Elaborate decoration makes classic kitchens easily identifiable. Whether you include corbels under your cooker hood mantle or simply pair your classic doors with patterned wall panels, it all adds a sense of warmth and antiquity.

Classic Kitchens FAQs

Coming up with classic kitchen ideas isn’t easy when kitchen design isn’t your specialist area. After all:

What is a classic kitchen?
What features do luxury classic kitchens contain?
Are there standard classic kitchen appliances?

While each classic kitchen is different, as long as your kitchen contains Shaker doors, ornate beading, practical storage and decorative flourishes, it’s a classic kitchen.

Your journey to getting a classic kitchen with Masterclass Kitchens is simple. There are six steps involved.

Absolutely! You can visit any of our 150+ Masterclass Kitchens partner showrooms located across the UK. With so many to choose from, checking out a showroom has never been easier. Not sure where to find your local one? Find your closest retailer on our website.

In each outlet, our experts will ask about your budget and style preferences and help bring your dream classic kitchen to life. Then they’ll draw you a bespoke, 3D kitchen design with no obligation to purchase.

Set in South Wales in Llantrisant, where it has resided for over 20 years, we operate an 80,000-square-foot factory and head office. More than that, though, over 150 partner retailers represent our brand across the Wales, England, Scotland and the Channel Islands.

Classic kitchens thrive when paired with an antique kitchen aesthetic. As a result, you could opt for an Aga and a white kitchen sink. However, due to their understated nature, modern appliances like integrated ovens and microwaves also look equally at home.

We source an enormous portion of our base material from FSC® and PEFC accredited forests, which means up to 100% of our board. What’s more, we’ve minimised pollution and energy usage in our processes without impacting our high-quality standards.
