Kitchen Renovations Narrabeen
If the dishwasher door blocks the walkway or there’s nowhere to put groceries beside the fridge, the first decision is whether the layout needs to change. Red Hot Kitchens designs and renovates kitchens for Narrabeen homeowners, from compact apartments to houses with room to rethink the kitchen and dining area.
James visits your home for a free measure and quote. Show him what gets in the way and what you’d like to keep. He’ll talk through whether a full renovation, a custom cabinetry layout or a kitchen makeover makes sense for your space and budget. You deal directly with James from the first measure through to installation.
Planning a Kitchen Between Narrabeen Beach and the Lagoon
If your kitchen opens onto a deck or courtyard, start with the route from the prep bench to the outdoor table. An island can add seating and storage, but its position matters when someone is cooking and others are moving through. James can check whether an island, a peninsula or a longer bench along the wall would work better.
In a smaller kitchen, including an apartment near Ocean Street, check whether the fridge or dishwasher door blocks the route to the dining area or balcony. Moving an appliance or changing the depth of a cabinet run can free up space without enlarging the room.
Access can also affect the design. If your home fronts Pittwater Road, tell James where deliveries can stop and whether the route in is through a driveway, side path, stairwell or lift. He can check how the benchtops and tall cabinetry can be brought inside before the design is settled.

Kitchen Renovation Inspiration Near Narrabeen
These Red Hot Kitchens projects in nearby Cromer and Collaroy Plateau show two different ways to plan a kitchen island and the cabinetry around it.




Cromer
— An Island for Entertaining with Built-in Wine Storage
James updated this dated Cromer kitchen with white handleless cabinetry and a grey island topped with pale engineered stone. Four timber stools line the breakfast bar, with wide drawers and a built-in wine fridge fitted into the island. A pantry and tall cupboards provide extra storage, while white splashback tiles and woven pendant lights complete the kitchen.











Collaroy Plateau
— A Shaker Kitchen with a Natural Stone Island
James’s Collaroy Plateau renovation gave a cramped, dated kitchen a new layout. White Shaker cabinetry in a polyurethane finish pairs with natural stone benchtops and a veined splashback. The island brings together an inset sink, preparation space and seating, while the freestanding cooker sits along the wall. Pendant lights and timber flooring add warmth to the white cabinetry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I fit an island if my Narrabeen kitchen opens onto a deck or courtyard?
James can measure the space between the proposed island, the cooking bench and the doors. If stools or open drawers would narrow the path outside, a peninsula or a longer wall bench may give you the preparation space you need.
What should I check before renovating a Narrabeen apartment kitchen?
Ask your strata manager what the building requires for the work you’re considering, especially if you want to move plumbing or change the flooring or ventilation. Bring any building requirements and permitted work hours to the first measure so James can factor them into the quote.
What if my Narrabeen home has limited space for deliveries?
If you’re on Pittwater Road or have a narrow driveway, let James know where deliveries can stop and how materials will reach the kitchen. For a house, that may be through a side gate or a set of steps. For an apartment, check the lift or stairwell and whether deliveries need to be booked.
Can I keep the existing sink position when I renovate my Narrabeen kitchen?
Yes, if it still works for the layout. Keeping the sink in place can simplify the plumbing scope while you improve storage, bench space or access to the dining area. If you’re considering moving the sink to an island, James can talk through what that would involve before you settle on a design.
