A brand new kitchen showroom in Southport is now open!
Birkdale Kitchen Co opened in the former Laura Ashley premises in the heart of picturesque Birkdale Village on Monday, 12 April.
During lockdown, the innovative firm has already been inundated with orders for both homes and developers.
Birkdale Kitchen Co designs and fits luxury, bespoke kitchens designed individually for people – exactly the way they want it.
The firm offers a huge range of traditional designs in a wide range of styles as well as the very latest modern designs, with all the latest features and mod-cons you could wish for.
Home owners will be able to ask an Amazon Alexa to open their oven door, or turn the oven on, while settings can be made for ceiling lights to flash when the right temperature has been reached. Wireless charging technology will mean you can put your mobile phone down on the worktop and it will charge.
The company also offers a wide range of kitchen accessories.
