Interesting old porcelain sink, counter, refrigerator unit

We're looking at buying a 100 year old house on some property in the country. We think it was repaired/restored/renovated, maybe in the 80s or 90s. There's a "feature" in the kitchen that's, to us, VERY unusual.

THere are cabinets in the kitchen with porcelainized metal doors. And the kitchen counter and since is porcelainized metal. And under the counter there's a built in refrigerator.

Has anyone ever seen anything like this?

You can see the open vent at the top of the door under the sink in this photo. And the cabinet doors over the counter are the same or similar to the unit under, but I think the cabinets themselves are wood. (I didn't really explore this that much.


In this photo, you can see the refrigerator (not currently running, maybe turned off) on the right. I thought the small box at the top might be a "freezer" like little dorm fridges often have, but I couldn't get it open, so maybe it's not. Under the sink at the bottom, there's a box with a knob. Presumably that's the compressor and temp control. The fridge is surprisingly roomy.



Before and current photos of the front.



Has anyone seen anything like this before?
