That particular model of Westinghouse wall oven is excellent. My aunt had one, and we also had one for about a year in the house we were living in when my Dad died in 1962. Ours was anodized copper, but other wise exactly the same as the SS model. They had a larger capacity than most other wall oven in the 50’s. They baked, broiled and roasted beautifully.

The stove top isn’t as old as the oven, if it was it would have the burner controls that change color for each heat. The DW is the same vintage as the oven though. And I agree, $800 seems like too much.

Newer cooktop.

From the poor pic of the cooktop, that looks like a terrible arrangement.  The large elements seem way too close to the edges, controls on one side and the wall on the left.

 

We had a Westy 30" oven with controls on the side, great baking oven.

I can't help but think this an 'office kitchen'. They don't mention if those metal cabinets are part of the deal - they look like Youngstown Kitchens metal units.

That kitchen is in amazing shape.  Not sure why but that kitchen appears to have had very little use.   Although, we don't see the insides of the oven or the dishwasher so who knows what they look like.  I bet though, they look as nice on the inside as on the outside.

That cooktop looks like a Westinghouse design from the 70s that I saw in a friend's house.

Even the cabinets were WH supplied, The kitchen must have been used enough that they had to replace the CT with a 70s WH, or may be the original just shorted out sitting there one day like one Tom had in his house in the 80s did.

 

The 70s CT was a clever design as it could be installed either way in the counter top so the controls could be on the left for LHed users.

Carpet

The carpet does make one think it is in an office setting. Those are beautiful though!

We had the front 8 inch element on then there was a pop and it went out. A few minutes later we heard the siren from the volunteer fire department and wondered for years if the cooktop had blown out something in a substation. I love those fat Corox units.
