What type of range do you expect to see in a house priced between $1.5m and $2m?

If the kitchen is small anyway, I think you can go with a mid-range appliance, as long as it visually doesn't look out of place or "cheap." But that's just me. . .

FWIW, I'm sure only people who care about these things are chiming in. There are probably a LOT of people who want a nice house and can afford 1.5 million but who don't care about how fancy their range is. I'm cook a lot and love to do it (though I'm not in your price range). And I know several people who live in million-dollar-plus houses who are normal cooks. Neither they nor I would demand a Viking or a Wolf or whatever.

We have an NXR range from Costco. Their 30" model is about $2k. I know a Wolf/Viking is probably built better, but it's built well enough for us, and it certainly works just as well.

I think it depends on where in that price range you are, and where you are located geographically. In our neighborhood, a $1.5 million house would not have a very nice kitchen, and it would not matter what your stove looked like. For $1.5 million, you expect there to undesirables aspects with the house. A $2 million house would be a whole other ball of wax - likely new construction and should have a fancy stove.
