cucina...abitabile
(noun) (fem.) (sing.) kitchen dinette; full kitchen In Italian a "cucina abitabile" is a kitchen of at least 9 sq m surface with a window.. The space must accommodate a table, chairs as well as all of the appliances (stove, refrigerator, dishwasher etc). This is why "full kitchen" seems more suitable than "eat-in kitchen". A "cucina semi-abitabile" and kitchenette also may accommodate a small table with two or four chairs, but do not meet the space requirement to qualify as "abitabile", and are most likely are lacking the window or the space to fit one of the appliances.
