At Borough Woodworks, every project is an opportunity to elevate the standard of our craftsmanship — and this recent custom home, built by our sister company Lakenridge Builders Inc., stands as one of our proudest achievements. The home earned the 2025 Winston-Salem Parade of Homes Gold Award, and we’re honored that our cabinetry, woodworking, and specialty features contributed to its standout design. This home pushed our team creatively and technically, resulting in a space that blends beauty, functionality, and next-level craftsmanship.
Custom Cabinetry Throughout the Home
One of the central elements of this Parade Home was the custom cabinetry designed and built by our team. Every cabinet and detail was crafted to match the home’s clean modern aesthetic while delivering the storage and usability homeowners expect from high-end custom work.
The heart of the home is a stunning white oak kitchen that seamlessly combines show-stopping design with clever hidden functionality:
- Showpiece Island – The kitchen’s focal point is a striking white oak island, crafted to provide both style and practicality. Hidden electrical outlets maintain a clean, seamless appearance while still offering convenient access to power — the best of both form and function.
- Sliding White Oak Hood – To complement the island, we designed a matching white oak range hood with a unique engineering feature: it slides off the wall for effortless access to the hood fan. This ensures easy serviceability without compromising aesthetics.
- Hidden Inset Butler’s Pantry – One of the home’s most memorable elements is the hidden inset butler’s pantry, artfully concealed behind custom cabinetry. This space offers additional storage and prep room while maintaining the kitchen’s uninterrupted, minimalist look — a perfect blend of beauty and utility.
Craftsmanship Worthy of a Gold Award
A thoughtfully designed drop zone sets the tone in the home’s entryway, featuring a warm walnut bench top and cubbies for coats, bags, and daily essentials — blending elegance with everyday function for busy families. This project also introduced our new unfinished custom closet line, crafted from solid birch plywood for superior strength, durability, and customizable storage.
We’re proud that these contributions played a part in helping this beautiful home earn top honors in the 2025 Winston-Salem Parade of Homes — a recognition that reflects the dedication, innovation, and craftsmanship we bring to every project. Whether it’s a hidden pantry, a sliding hood system, whole-home cabinetry, or bespoke storage solutions, Borough Woodworks remains committed to producing work that inspires.
