Osterville is one of the seven villages of Barnstable, a waterfront community of harbors, boating, and homes that come alive every summer. Many are second homes, used hard for a few months and then closed for winter. Cedars & Birch Kitchens works with Osterville homeowners, builders, architects, and interior designers to plan kitchen renovations and bathroom renovations with cabinetry that looks right, works hard, and arrives on schedule.
We carry nine different cabinet lines, so there's an option for every budget and every kind of project, from ready-to-assemble (RTA) kitchens to fully custom and European-designed frameless cabinetry. We also supply vanities for bathroom renovations and wholesale cabinetry for builders and contractors working in Osterville. Questions? Read our frequently asked questions.
A kitchen in a summer home has a different job than a year-round one. It has to feed a full house on a holiday weekend, stand up to sand and salt air, and look good for guests, then sit quiet for months. We plan layouts, storage, and finishes around how your family actually uses the house, and we'll help you choose cabinetry that's easy to care for.


Timing matters when a house is only open part of the year. Semi-custom, custom, and European lines typically take 6 to 8 weeks to produce, or about 9 weeks delivered, while RTA orders are often ready in as little as 7 to 10 days. Work backward from the date you want the kitchen finished, and we'll help you place the order early enough to keep the project on schedule. For ballpark numbers, see pricing your dream kitchen.
To get started, download our Kitchen Measuring Guide and bring your measurements to your consultation.
Larger projects work best when everyone is on the same page before the cabinets are ordered. We hold a pre-order coordination meeting with your general contractor, your installer, and our design consultants to work through any issues that might come up, and we work with architects and interior designers from the early planning stage.
If a cabinet needs a touch-up or repair along the way, we pick it up, fix it, and return it, so your team doesn't have to.


If you build, design, or renovate in Osterville and the surrounding Barnstable villages, we offer wholesale cabinetry and concierge-style support so your clients get the right cabinets and your project stays on schedule.

Kitchen and bathroom renovations in Osterville may need building permits, especially when the work involves structural, electrical, or plumbing changes. Osterville is one of seven villages in the Town of Barnstable, so there's no separate Osterville permit office. Building permits go through the Town of Barnstable Building Division, which has an online permit center. Helpful link:
