Common Interior Features in Sewell
Ceiling Heights
Mix of 8ft ceilings in older splits and ranches, and 9ft first-floor ceilings with some two-story/vaulted family rooms in newer colonials.
Wall Materials
Almost entirely drywall. Popcorn ceilings are common in homes built through the late 1980s.
Trim & Molding
Builder-grade pine or oak trim, either colonial or clamshell style. Crown molding and chair rail are common in dining rooms of colonial-style homes.
Kitchen Cabinets
Dominated by builder-grade oak raised-panel cabinets, which are the primary target for painting projects.
Fireplaces
Gas or wood-burning fireplaces with a simple wood mantel and often a brick or tile surround are standard in family rooms.
Staircases
Carpeted staircases are the norm. Colonials feature a central staircase in the foyer, while splits have shorter flights between levels.

Cabinet Painting Trends
The demand for painting oak kitchen cabinets is extremely high. White remains the top choice, followed by light gray and increasingly, two-tone schemes.
Trim & Woodwork Trends
Painting stained 1970s-80s trim white is a standard upgrade. For homes built in the 90s with already-painted trim, a fresh coat of crisp white is often needed to cover the yellowed 'builder's white'.
