Designed for Hale Barns Homes

Kitchens for Open-Plan Living

Many Hale Barns homes are large detached houses, some newly built and others remodelled to open the ground floor into one big kitchen, dining and living space. In a room that size, the kitchen has to work as architecture as well as a place to cook.

We plan islands, tall storage and appliance walls so the space feels calm and ordered, and we can carry the same cabinetry into a pantry, bar or utility so the whole floor feels designed as one.

Client Reviews

What Our Clients Say

★★★★★
“We recently had our kitchen designed and fitted by Andrew Ryan, and the whole experience has been outstanding from start to finish. From the very first design consultation, Mike and Selena really listened to what we wanted, offering thoughtful suggestions and expert guidance. Throughout the entire process, communication was excellent, and nothing ever felt too much trouble. Every detail was carefully considered, and the workmanship is second to none. Florin, the fitter, was professional, tidy, and a pleasure to have in our home, and the end result is a kitchen that not only looks stunning but works perfectly for our family.”

“Andrew Ryan is simply an incredible company to work with. Very rarely does reality outstrip renders – but with our kitchen/dining room project the already incredible design renders were outstripped by the install. Everything was faultless and perfect. Michael and Noel were fantastic. My builder (UK Master Craftsman of the year twice!) stated it was the best produced and finished kitchen he’d ever seen in his working life. If you have the chance to work with Andrew Ryan then don’t hesitate – they are a different class.”

“I visited several bespoke kitchen designers before choosing Andrew Ryan. Noel really understood the style I was trying to achieve and as we have 4m height ceilings this was the only company that could accommodate and be truly bespoke in the design. From start to finish Noel, Michael and the team worked with us and were easy to communicate and work with. I am truly delighted with the quality and the result. Friends are amazed at what has been achieved and the kitchen is a pleasure to work and entertain in. I would highly recommend this company.”

“The team at Andrew Ryan are fantastic. We had nothing but a positive experience across the initial discussions, design and installation process. They are friendly, professional and truly ensure that their customers are well looked after before, during and after their work is undertaken. Noel and Michael ensure that every detail is taken care of – we really enjoyed our time dealing with them! We had a kitchen and utility room installation and the quality of the product is exceptional. I would highly recommend Andrew Ryan.”

Questions

Planning a Kitchen in Hale Barns

Every kitchen is priced to its design, materials and appliances, but our kitchen cabinetry typically starts from £40,000. After our first meeting we give you clear guidance, so the design and the budget develop together.

Yes. We regularly work from architect’s plans, often before building work starts, so we can advise on layout, services and window positions early. We then coordinate with your architect and builder through to installation.

The design stage depends on your project: often one to two months, and longer for new builds where we work from architect’s drawings. Once the design is signed off, it is typically 12–14 weeks until delivery, with our team coordinating stone templating and fitting.
