When a St. Louis transplant needed a Biltmore townhome that could feel like a true second home, we started from the ground up. This gut remodel centered on opening up the layout — most notably in the kitchen, where removing walls created a bright, connected space that completely changed how the home lives. The result is a warm transitional interior that balances polish with ease: thoughtfully layered furnishings, natural materials, and a sense of comfort that makes it just as easy to settle in for a weekend as it is to stay all season.
