Kitchen Renovation in Camberwell

The Georgian terraces on Camberwell Grove and the Victorian houses around Denmark Hill and Camberwell Church Street are some of the best period architecture in South London. We build kitchens that respect that but still work hard for a modern family.

Georgian houses in Camberwell give you a lot to play with. High ceilings, well proportioned rooms and fine detail, fanlights, panelled doors, moulded cornicing, all set a high bar. We answer it with kitchens to match, hand painted cabinetry, natural stone worktops, brass or aged bronze hardware and joinery that picks up the Georgian detailing running through the house.

The Victorian terraces on the streets between Denmark Hill and Peckham Road are more typical South London stock, with tight rear kitchens that are ready for extending and reworking. A side return extension, rear glazing and a knock through open it all up into a bright, sociable family kitchen that runs straight out to the garden.

Camberwell sits in the London Borough of Southwark, and the Camberwell Grove conservation area covers some of the borough's most important houses. We work carefully within that, designing extensions and alterations that get through both planning and the conservation officer.

Camberwell is a characterful part of SE5, based around Camberwell Green and running along Denmark Hill towards Ruskin Park. You get a mix here, Georgian terraces, some of them Grade II listed, Victorian family houses and later builds. The Camberwell College of Arts is on the doorstep, and locals care about design and heritage.

Southwark Council's conservation area rules mean extensions and alterations need to be handled with care, especially on Camberwell Grove and the streets next to it. A good kitchen that works within those limits lifts both the house and the street.
