When considering a new kitchen, one of the first questions is often the simplest: how much should I expect to invest?

A bespoke kitchen is about far more than cabinetry and appliances. It is a considered combination of craftsmanship, materials, functionality and design, created specifically for the architecture and way of life of your home.

At Applewood Kitchens, our kitchens are designed and made to be timeless, beautifully engineered and tailored to each individual space. Our projects typically range from £25,000 to £50,000, depending on the level of bespoke detailing, materials, worktops, appliances and installation involved.

To make planning easier from the outset, we provide a straightforward cost-per-linear-metre guide. It offers an indication of the investment involved before a full design has been developed.

How much does a bespoke kitchen cost?

As a general guide, an Applewood kitchen typically costs between:

This provides a useful starting point when considering the likely cost of a bespoke kitchen.

At the lower end of the range, this might represent a beautifully designed, well-specified kitchen with carefully selected materials and appliances. At the upper end, it can include a fully bespoke kitchen with premium materials, sophisticated storage, detailed cabinetry and high-performance appliances.

Of course, every kitchen is different. The final investment depends on the size and architecture of the room, the complexity of the design, the materials selected and the level of specification.

What does this mean for your kitchen?

Most kitchens contain around 10–12 linear metres of cabinetry. As a result, the overall investment will often fall within the following ranges:

These figures are intended as a helpful guide rather than a fixed price. They allow you to understand the likely level of investment before embarking on the design process.

For a bespoke kitchen, this early clarity can be invaluable.

What is included in the investment?

Every Applewood kitchen is created around the same principles of quality, precision and longevity.

Your investment typically encompasses:

More than just the kitchen

A beautiful kitchen needs a beautiful setting.

When undertaking a kitchen renovation, there are often a number of associated works required to prepare the room properly for the new installation. At Applewood, our typical project costs can also incorporate these essential elements, helping to create a finished space rather than simply supplying a kitchen.

This can include:

• Electrical work, including repositioning sockets, lighting and appliance connections
• Plastering and making good, ensuring walls and ceilings are properly prepared
• Flooring, supplied and installed to complement the new kitchen
• Decoration, including painting and the finishing touches that bring the room together

These details might seem small individually, but they make a significant difference to the finished result.

We believe a kitchen should feel as though it belongs naturally within the architecture of your home. That means considering the whole room, rather than treating the kitchen cabinetry in isolation.

Why does a bespoke kitchen cost more?

A bespoke kitchen represents a different approach to kitchen design.

Rather than selecting from a fixed range of cabinet sizes and finishes, every decision can be considered in relation to your home. Cabinet proportions can be tailored to the room, storage can be designed around your needs, and materials and finishes can be selected to create a sense of continuity throughout the space.

The result is a kitchen that is not simply fitted into a room, but designed around it.

This level of craftsmanship, personalisation and project management is reflected in the investment.

A kitchen designed for the long term

We believe the best kitchens are not dictated by short-lived trends.

At Applewood, we focus on creating spaces that feel considered today and continue to feel relevant for years to come. From the proportions of the cabinetry to the choice of materials, every element is designed to work harmoniously with the architecture of your home.

The aim is simple: to create a kitchen that is beautiful to live with, practical to use and made to last.

A clear starting point for your kitchen project

Understanding the likely cost of a bespoke kitchen shouldn't require a completed design.

Our £2,000–£4,000 per linear metre guide provides a useful starting point for anyone considering an Applewood kitchen, while recognising that every project is unique.

For most homes, this means an overall investment of approximately £25,000–£50,000, depending on the size, specification and level of bespoke detailing.

Ultimately, the value of a bespoke kitchen lies not only in the cabinetry itself, but in the thought, craftsmanship and care that goes into creating a complete space.

Luxury should feel effortless.

That is why, from the first conversation through to the final polish, we take care of the detail — creating kitchens that are designed around your home and made to be enjoyed for decades to come.
