Ooooo! I missed your reply! How are you these days?
kitchens suited to mass-consumption
That makes a lot of sense, actually, since the house on question was located in a tiny English village, and the American kitchen was mentioned in such a way that the estate agent apparently didn't approve.
When I was growing up, we had our washer in the kitchen. Lots of people did, although that may have been a midwestern thing. There was no dryer - we hung them out on the clothes line. If you really needed a dryer (e.g., rained an entire week, or 20 below zero) you used the laundromat.
