Kitchen Orangeries

Why Install a Kitchen Orangery over a Standard Orangery?

A kitchen orangery can combine a more open plan space with integrated kitchen units as part of the design. The requirements for a kitchen orangery will be different as there will need to be considerations for electrical installations, vents, plumbing and more. Our designers will also make recommendations on windows, doors, and roof lanterns for your new kitchen extension.

Create a Comfortable Space for Family and Friends

It’s no secret that as a nation, we spend a lot of time in the kitchen.

Recent estimates show that we spend roughly four hours and 13 minutes cooking each week and spend a further one hour and 38 minutes a week washing up and cleaning the kitchen. If we spend nearly six hours a week in the kitchen ( roughly 24 hours a month!) shouldn’t it be a space we enjoy?

While kitchens were made for cooking, many of us also choose to use the kitchen as a place for socialising. Whether it’s having kids at the kitchen table while they do homework or guests around your central island as you prepare cocktails at a dinner party, the kitchen is often used as a central gathering point. Indeed, the kitchen is viewed as the “heart of the home” and by installing an orangery and moving your kitchen inside of it, you’ll maximise space and be able enjoy the company of family and friends more comfortably.

We can custom create your orangery to your specifications. If you’re purpose-building a space with a kitchen in mind, we can develop a space that utilises space, maximises light, and that is functional. Maybe you want south-facing windows to maximise the amount of sunshine you enjoy, or perhaps you want a large open-plan space to create a kitchen-cum-diner. We can help with both. Our experts will offer advice every step of the way, from design through to planning permissions.

It’s the Simple Option

While a typical kitchen renovation can disrupt your daily life, the installation of a kitchen orangery extension is different. You’ll be able to continue using and enjoying your current kitchen while the new extension is being built. What’s more, orangeries are less expensive than other home extensions and the design and building process takes less time as there are fewer planning permissions required.

Increase the Value of Your Property

Any addition of square footage to your home can increase the value of your property. This is especially the case when adding on a kitchen. In fact, some experts believe the addition of a kitchen can add an estimated value of 11 percent to the property. That’s roughly £33,000 to the average UK home!

Traditional or Contemporary Kitchen Orangeries

Orangeries can be designed in both contemporary or more classic, traditional styles. Regardless of the style you choose, we can guarantee that the finished product will fit with the overall architectural style and design of your home. For modern kitchen orangeries, we can show you examples of projects that introduce clean, crisp lines, floor-to-ceiling glass panes and bi-folding doors. For more classic designs, we can show you examples of projects that incorporate oak or timber, decorative roof lanterns, and Farrow and Ball paint that complements colours present in the existing property.

Of course, you can create a completely customised room as well!
