Kitchen Renovation in St John's Wood.
Space Cucina began as a kitchen company, and kitchens are still at the centre of what we do. We design, supply and fit kitchens across St John's Wood, either on their own or as part of an extension or refurbishment, with the furniture made to measure in Italy or Germany and the worktops, appliances and lighting specified alongside it.
The process starts at your home, with door, worktop and finish samples brought to you. We measure, talk through how you cook and live, and produce a design with drawings and a full specification. Once it is signed off, the kitchen goes into production and arrives six to eight weeks later; fitting, including worktop templating, takes one to two weeks.
Because our own electricians, plumbers and fitters do the work, the practical side, moving services, adding an island, running extraction, is dealt with as part of the design, not discovered on the day.

St John's Wood: the houses and the planning rules.
St John's Wood was London's first garden suburb of villas, laid out from the 1820s, and much of that character survives: paired stucco villas set back behind front gardens, later Victorian houses on the roads towards Maida Vale, and the mansion blocks and 1930s apartment buildings along Wellington Road and St John's Wood Road. Abbey Road and Lord's sit at its edges, Regent's Park to the south.
For owners that means large, well-proportioned rooms, deep plots that suit rear extensions and basements, and a planning authority, Westminster, that expects any change to respect the villa character. We have fitted kitchens on Abbey Road and in the roads off the High Street, and we know which streets carry the tighter controls.
The St John's Wood Conservation Area covers most of the district.
Westminster City Council
Westminster decides planning and listed building applications. The St John's Wood Conservation Area removes some permitted development rights, so many rear extensions and roof changes need a full application.
Villas and gardens
Extensions are judged on their effect on the villa form and on garden space; basements need a Basement Impact Assessment under Westminster's basement policy.
Flats and mansion blocks
Refurbishing a flat usually needs a licence to alter from the freeholder or block management in addition to building regulations.
Approvals for kitchen renovation in St John's Wood.
A new kitchen does not need planning permission, but moving services, new electrics and gas work need building regulations approval and certification, and flats usually need the freeholder's consent for changes to services.
