TV star Angela Lansbury is an avid cook who likes nothing better than to spend time in the kitchen of her farmhouse-style retreat in Ireland. The Murder She Wrote star wanted her kitchen to be an inviting place where others could keep her company. The kitchen, which is separated by a long, wooden table, is part of a spacious, loft-type main room with living and dining areas. Open shelving provides ample storage space for plenty of cookware.
