Walnut handleless island with a pale quartz top and a hob, Storrington

Modern kitchens for Southwater homes

Southwater is about 20 minutes down the A24 from our showroom in Storrington. Many homes here suit a modern kitchen with an island, and we plan the room from the floor up.

From brickworks to Lintot Square

Southwater was a village of farms until the railway came in 1866 and the brickworks grew beside it. The works closed in 1981 and the clay pits became Southwater Country Park, and the village centre around Lintot Square, rebuilt in 2006, has ’Iggy’, the iguanodon statue that marks the dinosaur bones found in the brickyard.

With around 10,000 people, Southwater is one of the largest villages in the Horsham district. It has grown a great deal in recent decades, and many homes are modern family houses.

That kind of room suits a handleless kitchen and an island where people can sit. Tall units with built-in ovens and fridges keep one wall clear, and pull-out storage keeps the bins and the pans out of sight.

A recent handleless kitchen we designed and fitted in Storrington

In this Storrington home the brief was a bold, modern kitchen that still felt warm, with plenty of practical features for a family.

We designed, supplied and installed walnut cabinets with push-to-open doors and drawers, and a large island with seating, both under quartz worktops.

Double butler sinks, integrated fridge freezers, a downdraft hob and pull-out storage make it work hard every day, and the walnut keeps it from feeling cold.

What goes into an open-plan kitchen

  • Islands that fit

    We check the walkways around an island, the seating height and where power and extraction can run before anything is drawn.

  • Handleless done well

    Push-to-open doors or rails, with appliances and tall units planned so the run of doors stays even.

  • Fitted complete

    Our team fits the kitchen and worktops, with electrics, plumbing and flooring organised as part of the job.

Southwater is just south of Horsham, where we also design kitchens, fit bathrooms and build media walls. We also work in Cowfold, and every town we cover is on our West Sussex page.
