Kitchen & bath remodeling in Celebration, FL.

Celebration was built between 1996 and 2004 to a defined set of architectural patterns — Classical, Victorian, Coastal, Mediterranean, French, and Colonial Revival — drawn from early-20th-century American residential design. The interiors were intended to match. Original kitchens often have raised-panel cabinetry, formal crown moldings, and hardwood floors that match the home's exterior style. When we remodel here we usually stay inside that vocabulary: painted shaker or inset cabinets with traditional profiles, soapstone or honed-marble counters, subway tile in classic patterns, unlacquered brass or polished-nickel fixtures.

A modernist flat-panel kitchen would be technically possible but would feel wrong in a Celebration home — and it would hurt resale to the next owner who specifically chose the community for its traditional character.

The Celebration Residential Owners Association (CROA) reviews exterior-visible renovations and certain mechanical changes. Window replacements, exterior door swaps, HVAC repositioning, and new exterior-vented exhaust paths typically trigger review. Interior-only kitchen and bath remodels usually don't. When CROA review is needed, the committee wants material samples and a clear scope of work.

We've submitted enough CROA packages to know the format the committee expects. Permitting through Osceola County follows CROA approval, not before.

North Village and the original Celebration neighborhoods (built 1996–2000) are now hitting the next remodel cycle — the first one for most of these homes. Artisan Park and Lake Evalyn (mid-2000s) are starting their first major remodel cycle as well. Our typical Celebration project is a full kitchen remodel that respects the home's original design language but modernizes everything else: new semi-custom or custom cabinets in painted shaker, quartz or honed marble counters, refinished or replaced hardwood floors, designer lighting, and a primary- bath conversion to a frameless walk-in shower paired with a freestanding tub.

Osceola County permits Celebration projects directly. CROA review (when required) happens at the front of the project, before permits are pulled. We file CROA submissions, track committee response, and pull county permits as soon as approval lands.
