Create more space for everyday living with a bespoke timber orangery. Kingsholme designs and builds orangeries and conservatories for homeowners in Barnet, from kitchen and dining extensions to separate rooms overlooking the garden.
Our timber windows, doors and roof lanterns are made to order at our Studham workshop in Bedfordshire. We can coordinate design, approvals, construction and installation, or work alongside your architect and builder with a clearly agreed scope.
Every orangery is developed around your home, garden and intended use. Detailed 3D drawings help you explore the layout and proportions before manufacture begins.
Our timber windows, doors, roof lanterns and decorative joinery are made to order at our Studham workshop, giving us close control over detailing and finish.
We can coordinate design, approvals, construction and installation, or work alongside your existing project team, with responsibilities and scope agreed from the outset.
An orangery should complement the original house and connect comfortably with the rooms inside. The proportions of the windows, the roof height, the brickwork and the arrangement of the doors all contribute to that relationship.
We develop these details together, whether you favour traditional glazing bars and decorative joinery or a simpler design with wider garden views. Each orangery is made to order, allowing the design to respond to your property rather than a standard set of dimensions.
An orangery kitchen extension can provide space for a dining table, a comfortable seating area or a better connection between the kitchen and garden.
We begin with how you want to use the room. Kitchen units, furniture positions and routes through the house help shape the layout, while the roof lantern brings daylight from above. Considering these elements together helps create a room that works for family meals, entertaining and everyday life.
Kingsholme can provide a complete design and build service, coordinating the design, approvals, building work, joinery installation and agreed internal finishes.
If you already have an architect or builder, we can also discuss supplying and installing the orangery elements within their wider project. Agreeing the scope early makes responsibilities clear and helps the work progress smoothly.
If an existing conservatory no longer suits your home, replacing it offers an opportunity to reconsider the layout, roof and connection to adjoining rooms.
Our Berkhamsted project shows an ageing uPVC conservatory replaced with a bespoke orangery, using matching brickwork and a central roof lantern. For your project, we would assess the existing structure and foundations before establishing what could be retained.
An orangery typically combines a solid roof perimeter with a glazed lantern, while a conservatory generally has a more extensively glazed roof.
The choice affects the character of the room, the distribution of daylight and the space available for lighting and other fittings. We can help you compare the options alongside your home’s orientation, privacy, garden views and intended use.
A timber roof lantern brings daylight into the centre of an extension and creates height above a kitchen island, dining table or seating area.
Our traditional roof lanterns are made to order, allowing their dimensions, glazing arrangement and painted finish to be considered alongside the room below. They can form part of a complete Kingsholme orangery or an extension constructed by your own builder.

Photographs of your home, approximate dimensions and an outline of your ideas give us a useful starting point. If you already have drawings, we can review them with you and discuss the service you need.
Alongside the design, we consider access for construction, the connection to existing rooms and any known restrictions affecting the property. These practical details help establish the scope before work begins.
The cost of your orangery depends on its size, design and specification, together with the building work required. Alterations to your existing home and the extent of internal finishing also influence the overall budget.
Our orangery cost guide explains the main considerations. For an initial discussion about your own project, send us photographs or drawings and tell us what you would like the finished room to include.
