BESPOKE ORANGERY KITCHENS

What Is an Orangery Kitchen?

An orangery kitchen is a kitchen extension with more architectural character than a standard flat roof build, combining solid pillars, a perimeter roof, and a glazed central lantern to create a bright, elegant room that feels like a true part of the home.

A Proper Extension, Not a Glazed Add On

For Surrey homes that deserve more than a basic rear extension, an orangery kitchen creates a room with depth, structure, and genuine presence from inside and out.

Designed Around Light and Everyday Living

The lantern roof draws daylight deep into the heart of the kitchen, making the space brighter for cooking, dining, entertaining, and family life throughout the day.

Specialist Design by Surrey Orangery

We design bespoke orangery kitchens for homeowners across Surrey who want extra space, premium detailing, and a kitchen extension that adds lasting value to the property.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Everything You’re Wondering
About Kitchen Orangeries

Don’t just take our word for it — here’s what homeowners across Surrey say about their new kitchen orangeries.

In most cases, no. The majority of kitchen orangery extensions fall within Permitted Development rights, meaning no formal planning application is needed. We advise on this as part of your free consultation and handle any necessary applications on your behalf. If your property is listed or within a conservation area, we’ll guide you through any additional requirements.

Every orangery is bespoke, so pricing depends on size, style, materials, and specification. As a guide, kitchen orangery extensions typically start from around £40,000. We provide a detailed, transparent, fixed price proposal with no hidden costs, contact us for a free quote tailored to your specific home and project.

Absolutely. Unlike old fashioned conservatories, modern orangeries are thermally efficient, year round living spaces. We use thermally broken frames, high performance glazing, and fully insulated roofs. Combined with underfloor heating, which we can integrate, your kitchen orangery will be comfortable throughout the year.

From order placement, the typical on site build programme is 8 to 14 weeks, depending on size and specification. We provide a detailed project timeline at the proposal stage and keep you informed every step of the way. The design and planning phase typically takes 4 to 6 weeks prior to commencement.

An orangery features substantial brick or stone columns and a perimeter flat roof with a central glazed lantern, giving it the feel of a proper room rather than a glazed add on. A traditional orangery is typically less than 75% glass. Orangeries look more architecturally considered, perform better thermally, and typically add more value to the property than a conservatory.

Yes, and it is one of our most popular configurations. Many Surrey homeowners create a beautiful open plan kitchen diner with bi fold or sliding doors onto the garden. The lantern roof creates a natural, light filled zone for the dining area while the kitchen sits alongside it. We will work with your kitchen designer to ensure everything integrates seamlessly.
