Outdoor Living in Kensington, NY

Kensington is a small, affluent village within the Great Neck peninsula complex, with residential properties on moderate lots that feature mature trees and established gardens. The village's proximity to the rest of the Great Neck communities and its own quiet, residential character make it a desirable setting for outdoor living investments.

Lot sizes are typical of the peninsula villages — a quarter to half an acre — requiring space-efficient outdoor living designs. We excel at creating compact but fully functional outdoor rooms that include kitchen islands, fire features, and dining areas without overcrowding the available space.

Kensington's inland position on the peninsula provides moderate protection from salt exposure, though properties on higher ground may experience some maritime influence. Standard material specifications work for most Kensington properties.

The Village of Kensington has its own building department. Permits are required for outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, and roofed structures. Brothers Paving manages all applications.
