From Builder-Grade to Bold Luxury: A Stunning Kitchen Remodel in Lincoln, CA

In Lincoln, CA, a once modest, builder-grade kitchen with a small peninsula has been completely transformed into a custom-designed showpiece, thanks to the expertise of DreamLine Custom Cabinetry. Completed in May 2025, this full-scale kitchen remodel and whole-home flooring update was a testament to DreamLine’s signature precision, premium materials, and collaborative process. The result? A space that’s not only outstanding in function but visually breathtaking—a truly grand kitchen centered around a stunning island that now serves as the heart of the home.

At the core of this transformation was DreamLine’s GENESIS Series cabinetry, selected for its refined construction and timeless quality. The kitchen was finished in a rich Carbon stain, which brought warmth and dramatic depth to the space. Paired with a clean 1” Shaker door style, the cabinetry achieved a striking balance between classic craftsmanship and modern design. Beyond its beauty, the cabinetry was customized for performance and storage, with thoughtfully integrated accessories including two trash can pull-outs, a heavy-duty mixer lift, a tiered cutlery drawer insert, a utensil rack, a spice rack, and a lazy Susan—each contributing to seamless day-to-day living and an exceptional level of organization.

To complement the cabinetry, Dekton Lucid countertops were selected for their bold veining and durable surface, crafted with a mitered edge to emphasize elegance and create a waterfall-like visual effect across the island and perimeter. The luminous finish of the quartz alternative provided a refined contrast against the deep Carbon cabinetry, infusing the kitchen with sophisticated energy.

The flooring, upgraded throughout the home, featured REPUBLIC PURE SPC Bridge River Collection in the Oasis Eggshell color—a soft, natural tone that lightened the space and added warmth underfoot. The texture and resilience of this luxury vinyl plank offered both comfort and longevity, supporting the active lifestyle of the household without compromising on aesthetic.

Further enhancing the design were high-end plumbing fixtures and hardware. A Kohler Iron/Tones 33″ enameled cast iron sink (Model K-5707-0) anchored the workspace with durability and timeless appeal, while the Moen Align Spring faucet introduced a modern, professional edge. The cabinetry was finished with sleek hardware from the Pride Decor Modern Square Collection, tying the entire design together with subtle elegance.

This remarkable project came together under the guidance of Designer Michael F., who ensured the space felt both tailored and timeless. Project Manager Vlad G. brought the vision to life with expertise and attention to every construction detail, while Project Coordinator Julie T. maintained seamless communication and scheduling, making the process smooth and enjoyable for the homeowners.

The end result was nothing short of outstanding—a kitchen that now boasts a commanding island, intuitive layout, premium materials, and handcrafted cabinetry that marries form and function flawlessly. The homeowners had an amazing experience from start to finish, thanks to DreamLine Custom Cabinetry‘s deep commitment to craftsmanship and personalized service.
