Late to the discussion … I wanted to do something similar in my very small 1928 English cottage kitchen. After much looking I couldn’t find an antique cabinet in good condition that fit into the available space. So instead I got a new hutch with glass doors, deep drawers and nice detailing, in the same cream finish as my shaker cabinets. I added glass hardware similar to original hardware elsewhere in the house. The rest of the cabinetry has chrome hardware. Happy to report it looks GREAT! It adds a lot of character to my vintage house without looking out of place.
BTW, I went with checkerboard marmoleum floors, which also looks great. But if budget wasn’t a factor I’d prefer my hardwood floors extended into the kitchen. Good luck with your project.
