French term or phrase: Grande cuisine professionnelle
This is a very large property with features such as an independent studio, large grounds and many bathrooms. I am unsure whether this indicates "staff kitchen" or something else, as a large fitted kitchen has already been listed.

agree  Eliza Hall: Yes. This sounds like the typical luxury kitchen that rich Americans and Brits like these days, with professional-grade appliances etc. I would NOT say "restaurant style" because that's a totally different esthetic.

  -> Yes, maybe. The Spanish says professional, so the English probably should too.
agree  Ph_B (X): "professional-grade" is how I understand it: a chef could very well work there, even though that may never happen.

Large catering kitchen


Explanation:
As opposed to the everyday kitchen, this would be for entertaining large numbers of guests and the host and hostess would almost certainly not have a whiff of onion on their manicured hands.

agree  Tony M: Or it could even be that someone has actually been running e.g. a catering business from these premises; it would be unusual to refer to it as 'professionnelle' if it were just a sophisticated home kitchen, which tend to be called a 'labo'. Likely!

  -> Thanks Tony. I think it is called "professionnelle" because it is intended for use by professional caterers brought in for special occasions.

chef's kitchen


Explanation:
In the show 'Million Dollar Listing' they often talk about 'chef's kitchen' like it's the hottest thing. Not sure if this is what you are looking for, since this is a real estate listing.
