Ben and Erin helped welcome former Laurel resident Candace Keller back to her hometown of Laurel, transforming a small and ordinary house into this eye-catching showplace with trademark Napier touches.

The Moon House, the former residence of Laurel native Jack Moon, was built in the 1950s. It came with three bedrooms, one small bath, 1140 square feet, a corner porch and lots of windows for plentiful natural light. Prior to the renovation, this exterior had grown worn and dreary with stained white paint, a deteriorating metal awning and overgrown landscaping. Major upgrades inside would include addition of central HVAC and a complete kitchen overhaul. Ben estimated the renovation costs at around $82,000.

In keeping with the homeowner preferred color palette dominated by greens and neutrals, Erin's design included mint green paint and white trim to freshen up the exterior. Removal of the old awning and a more spare approach to landscaping help show off the home's newly improved profile and substantially elevate curb appeal.

Inside, a wall was removed between the dining room and kitchen, providing a open, bright and airy feel to the newly integrated spaces.
