I might add that the ol' Zenith Hi-Fi was cranking out the German Christmas Jams when I went into the basement (location of the kitchen in the pictures). Guy running the sale pulled the record off right as I took the picture.
So, is that the basement kitchen or the only kitchen?
Odds are no, pretty common in these areas to two complete kitchens. We've always had a stove and fridge in the basement, I added a couple of dishwashers....
As mentioned, I'd bet 50-percent of the homes around here have upstairs and downstairs kitchens. Christmas parties, hot-weather, canning, etc. This house's basement was undoubtedly finished in the 60s, and very well done (unlike many of them).
Thanks
The reason I asked if it was the only kitchen was because some older homes in Washington have the kitchen in the basement as a relic of the days of servants. I went to an estate sale in Georgetown in the 80s in a house with a basement kitchen and there was a pedestal control panel GE combo in it.

T'was fairly common here as well to have a basement kitchen back in the day. Particularly Polish, Italians families and pre central air days of yore
