Outdoor kitchens & alfresco in Berwick.

Premium kitchen, premium materials.

Berwick clients almost always go further up the materials stack than Cranbourne or Narre Warren clients. Polished concrete benchtops are rare here — the conversation is usually honed bluestone, granite, or porcelain slab (Neolith or Dekton). Cabinetry tends to be marine- grade ply with two-pack polyurethane or a fluted timber-batten front. The BBQ choice is typically a Beefeater Signature ProLine or a Beech built-in, not the entry-level Discovery range.

The bigger-block opportunity.

Berwick blocks of 800–1,500m² (Berwick Springs, Edrington, north of the highway) leave room for a properly-sized roofed alfresco that is genuinely a second living room — we build 45– 60m² alfresco rooms with a 10-seat dining table inside, full L-shaped kitchen, separate bar wing and a freestanding pizza oven against the boundary wall.

Heritage and overlay constraints.

Older Berwick (around High Street, around the village) has Heritage Overlay implications. New roofed structures need a planning permit on top of the building permit, and the alfresco roof has to match the existing house pitch and material. We deal with this regularly — worth a chat at the consultation if you are north-of-the-highway and worried about it.
