You want the Panasonic, as you've been pointed to.

You also want speaker phones with it, then you can use it as a hands
free intercom with automatic pickup to the called party, ie caller in
lounge picks up phone, presses "kitchen" button, phone in kitchen
goes
"BLEEP" and goes into speakerphone mode.  Person(s) in kitchen
and
caller can then chat.  Person in kitchen didnt have to touch phone.

Paging through speakerphones.

These are features you'll find difficult to emulate using approaches
other than a proper PABX, and these are the features that make a PABX
in a home worthwhile.

Panny PABXs are a bit of a pig to program, take your life back, you
need the Programmator, http://www.pbxsoftware.com/kxta/index.shtml

Also consider looking at the matching voicemail system.
