Your Chef’s Station and Eatery

The smell of morning coffee, the scent of a summer meal, a new bottle of wine being… there’s no place as warm and welcoming as the heart of your home. With a large center island, pristine appliances, gorgeous cabinetry, and open, inviting space for all your dinner parties and cozy brunches alike, your chef’s station and eatery is the happiest place to be.

 

At Homes By Dickerson, we know beautiful kitchens like the backs of our hands. From top to bottom, the high-end features you have in your kitchen change the way you enjoy the experience of cooking and eating. (And relaxing, of course!) When it comes to The Home of Your Life, you deserve the kitchen of your life. Here’s how one of our kitchens gives you more of everything you love: 

 

Kitchen.

More Space: A wide open kitchen means even more comfort, and there’s truly nothing better than that. Whether you’re enjoying an early homemade breakfast, celebrating a holiday, or throwing a buffet-style luncheon with your friends, you have all the space you need to spread out and do what you do best.

Large Island: Do you love to share hors d’oeuvres? How about taste-test wine while preparing a gourmet meal? An extra large island adds extra large character to your kitchen, and provides something that’s just as chic and stylish as it is functional. With ample room for seating, cue the comfort (and glass-clinking).

 

Kitchen.

Our beautiful lighting adds that warm glow you’re looking for in the most special room of your home. Your kitchen is just as luminous as you’ve always dreamed…

New vs. Used: The Advantages of The Home of Your Life

New vs. Used: The Advantages of The Home of Your Life

At Homes By Dickerson, we believe your home should reflect you inside and out. And while a used home has all the “pieces,” it doesn’t have the heart. With a squeaky clean new home as your canvas, you finally get to put your wants and needs first and make your home entirely your own.

 

From all-new systems and cleaner air quality to superior features and open-concept design, a beautiful new home in North Carolina makes life easier and more enjoyable every day. Take a look at the advantages of The Home of Your Life vs. any used home you’ve seen before:

 

Kitchen.

Used home…

Waste time and energy cooking meals with old, unreliable appliances

New home…

A spacious chef’s station and eatery with all-new appliances that work beautifully

 

Used home…

Miss the fun of hosting friends and family because of the cramped barrier of walls

New home…

A cleaner and greener deluxe family suite where each open room flows into the other

 

Outdoor space.

Used home…

Not enough room outside to fully enjoy each season

A new home…

Your own peaceful and private natural oasis that brings the beauty of nature to the comfort of home

 

Bathroom.

Used home…

No way to feel pampered and relaxed, especially at the end of a long day

New home…

A spa-like sanctuary with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and walk-in closet

 

Used home…

Not up to speed with what you need today and down the line

New home…

Brand new and expertly built to provide everyday paradise with comfort, luxury, and flexibility

As you compare new construction vs. resale, be sure to consider just how much a high-performance, certified-green home will enhance your daily routine. Aside from saving you money in the long run, The Home of Your Life in North Carolina lets you live the happier, healthier lifestyle you want and deserve. This summer, we’re saying “out with the old, in with the new”… there’s no better way to live your life.
