stoves on the range

we are finalizing the details for
the ranch remodel
as you can imagine
the kitchen is a huge priority

i have been in search of the perfect 
oven/stove/cooker
i want something
that addresses 
my modern cooking needs
with
a less 
"modern" 
look

i have always been in love with 
vintage stoves
like
o'keefe and merritt

and 
wedgewood
but then
i saw this

la canche

and this

la cornue
and 
these
 aga legacy
aga cooker
and began to think
i could get an
"old fashioned"/"farmhouse" look
with modern convenience
like
dual cooking
(gas range/electric oven)

i'm not convinced
however
that i can handle
the small ovens
some 
are wide and short
others
narrow and deep
but none
offer me exactly what i am looking for

currently
the AGA
while not meeting all of my needs
seems to meet the most
but i still have
these to review

bertazzoni
and
(they will do custom color)


the ovens and stoves work really hard in my kitchen
in our city home
this is what i have
just like this
but with gas burners and oven
and
a bit more wear and tear

it is definitely 
NOT 
the appropriate choice
for the ranch house
but
i am very attached
which might be why
i am finding fault
in 
every 
other
range
meet

*if you love your
oven/range/stove/cooker
and think i would too
please tell me about it
in the comments
