After nearly 25 years in her Belmont home, Candace was ready to transform her outdated kitchen and bathroom into the spaces she’d always envisioned.
She wanted a design that matched how her family actually lived—bright, efficient, and connected to the backyard where they entertain and her kids play. With three children and a busy household, she needed smart storage, modern function, and a layout that kept her part of the action, not isolated from it.

“I’ve lived here for almost 25 years, and I have dreamed of this kitchen from the day we bought it. It’s taken a long time to get it, but here it is. I am in love with my kitchen…I just listened to them, they listened to me, we worked great together, and now I have a dream kitchen. And I had it in just seven days.”
—Candace, Belmont, NC
Candace worked closely with us to bring her long-held vision to life. We listened to her priorities—keeping the double oven she loved, opening up the view to the backyard, and creating hidden storage for everyday essentials, such as her coffee bar and filtered water system.
The result was a layout that balanced beauty with serious function, all completed in just seven days, so her family never missed a beat.
The crisp, white Shaker cabinets extend to the ceiling for a clean, cohesive look, while the warm, maple-toned island adds contrast and character. Wide drawers with brass pulls provide ample storage keeping the space organized and accessible.
The new large window opens up the view to the backyard and pool, so Candace can stay connected to her kids and guests while cooking or entertaining. It transformed the kitchen from isolated to integrated.
No more bulky water dispensers cluttering the countertops. The custom hideaway station keeps filtered water and the coffee bar tucked away but easily accessible, maintaining a clean, uncluttered workspace.
Pull-out trash and recycling, tiered spice drawers, appliance storage with roll-out trays, and blind corner pullouts make every inch work harder. Soft-close drawers and custom utensil inserts keep everything organized and quiet.
The clean, durable surface feels high-end without being overly polished.
These are built right into the island, making meal prep seamless and efficient.
The combination pairs a functional basin with a brass faucet that's both stylish and practical for everyday use.
Matching pulls, faucets, and fixtures create a cohesive, polished look throughout.
Bright, even illumination keeps countertops and workspaces well-lit and inviting.
A spa-like retreat featuring a freestanding tub with striking wood slat accent wall, white cabinetry with brass hardware, and smart storage solutions.
Candace’s dream kitchen is finally here—modern, efficient, and designed around how her family actually lives.
The new layout keeps her connected to the backyard and her kids, while smart storage and thoughtful details make everyday routines easier and more enjoyable. And because it was built in just seven days, her family never had to put life on hold.
