Samantha + Cornelius Walker were looking for their dream home in Winter Haven. Style was important to the couple, but with a growing family, so was space. The Walkers looked into multiple builders before deciding on Southern Homes, recommended by close friends.

Fast-forward: With the sales + construction process now behind them, the Walkers are settled into their new home + making memories as a family. They’ve declared the kitchen the heart of their home – it’s where they cook, eat, do homework + spend family time.

See how they got everything they wanted in their new home here.
