Kristin Brings Her Superstar Talents to a Whole Home Remodel
Emmy and Tony award-winning superstar Kristin Chenoweth takes the stage on Celebrity IOUto give back to her long-time property managers, Adriana and Jenny. Kristin's father worked in construction, so it’s no surprise that she was all in on the opportunity to help rebuild a strong house for these two strong women. Together with the know-how and support of Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott, they transform a dated home into a vibrant and welcoming living space.
A Much-Deserved Surprised For a Hard-Working Mother-Daughter Duo
“There are certain things money can’t buy,” said Kristin of her relationship with Adriana and Jenny. “They’re like a mother and sister to me. Their friendship is an unspoken love.” Upon walking into their newly remodeled home, the two were nearly speechless with happiness and gratitude. “This is the flow. The energy. You captured us!”

Before: The Entryway
The layout of the home’s existing entryway never felt optimal. A pony wall separated the mud room from the main living area. The old oak floors were yellowed and dated. Adriana and Jenny needed a fresh perspective on how to organize and scale the furniture in their space.
The design team eliminates the pony wall to facilitate accessibility and traffic flow. Recessed lighting enhances the ambiance of the space, as well as illuminates the new medium-toned, engineered hardwood floors. Moreover, the design team relocated both the kitchen and dining room to make better use of the space.
