Best Bespoke Fitted Kitchen Company 2022 – North East

Posted on 27th April 2023

For a kitchen that is truly unique, designed with your own home and usage in mind, and filled with designer detail, look no further than Northumbria Kitchens. We speak to the firm’s owner, Vivian Spencer, as the company is crowned with a prestigious title in the Northern Enterprise Awards 2022.

Based in Kirkharle Courtyard, located between Newcastle and Northumberland, Northumbria Kitchens offers customers professional, bespoke handmade cabinets, incorporating only the finest quality materials, and using traditional craftsmanship such as highly specified cabinetry incorporating solid wood drawers.

The beautiful designs are all inspired by distinguished periods in north eastern English history, with each kitchen being custom built to stand the test of time.

The experienced and fully qualified award-winning in-house design team can cater to practically all customer wants and requirements.

Owner and designer, Vivian Spencer opened the company seven years ago, and has experienced much success, as well as vast growth, in that short time frame. She tells us a little more about what the firm can offer.

“We’re completely bespoke, meaning customers can essentially design their own kitchen and kitchen doors,” she enthuses. “There are more than 50 different styles to choose from, or be inspired by, and then its fully customisable with paint from Little Greene and a range of stunning handles, doorknobs, and other accessories.”

With a career spanning more than 30 years in the industry, it’s safe to say that Vivian really knows her stuff, and can guide customers through their dream kitchen from initial design concept right through to adding the finishing touches, including the electrics, plumbing works, insulation, and flooring, too, courtesy of the in-house fitting team.

But it’s the attention to the finer details that really make things stand out and mark Northumbria Kitchens out as the best, most opulent choice for its clients. From Laura Ashley kitchens to Fisher and Paykel appliances, and from granite and quartz worktops, to Shaws sinks to the premium Perrin and Rowe taps, these bespoke kitchens are filled with designer details, making them quite unlike anything else around.

“Shaws kitchen sinks are still made by master craftsmen, in the same area of Northern England, using techniques that haven’t changed for 120 years!” delights Vivian. “They were created to add authenticity, charm, and character; these sinks blend beauty with practicality – providing you with a sink that can last a lifetime.”

Having spent much of her career down south, Vivian returned to the north east eight years ago, and hasn’t looked back.

“I love the north,” she continues. “The traffic is so much better, which makes it easier to see customers as we can get from A to B much more easily.”

Recently, Northumbria Kitchens gained recognition in the Northern Enterprise Awards 2022 and was named Best Bespoke Fitted Kitchen Company 2022 – North East. A very worthy and prestigious accolade which is testament to the time, energy, and detail that goes into each and every kitchen that Vivian and her team creates.

Now as the future beckons, Vivian is poised for yet more growth as the demand for beautifully bespoke kitchens is on the increase.
