Testimonials

Not that you need more validation for all that you do, but we had 3 people come to the house this week who all sang your praises. An Occupational Therapist student from Towson University, a real estate agent and a “living in place” business owner who not only loved the look of our upgraded kitchen and bedroom suite, but also truly praised the design as being innovative and forward thinking for Mary. While we need to make some changes to make things safer/easier for Mary, our current thinking is to do those things and stay here.

Leslie is a Gem to work with!!
She’s able to see the full home/project and how to have it flow perfectly!
Leslie provided recommendations that were across the financial scale, understanding where we should spend money on higher end furniture and art but most importantly sharing suggestions on solutions that were extremely affordable.
Leslie made herself available to discuss ideas and the project process and provide valuable insight and feedback.
I loved her approach of “trusting the process” as it’s hard to see the full scale of everything until it’s complete but Leslie’s eye for design was truly valuable.
Lastly, she was a calm voice when difficult decisions needed to be made.
I’d highly recommend working with Leslie and I am so fortunate to have been recommended to work with her.
I’m extremely happy with my home - many thanks to Leslie.

Like so many of your clients, every day I wake up to a lovely home that with your advice and knowledge screams welcome from every corner. And, I would not be here without your talent that fixed up and staged out previous home and made the winning look to make it sell.
David says that every day he walks in here he feels like he lives in the Ritz and has a suite.
He tells me what a good and pretty home I made here . I smile to myself and say “Thank you Leslie”.

Leslie Tunney is a talented and fierce ally to anyone creating a home with a desire for both style and practicality

During our full home renovation- her talent for both creating timeless yet current design that fit our family’s lifestyle - mixed with her no-nonsense / call it like she sees it attitude were invaluable. Without her, I would still be down the Pinterest rabbit hole.

Leslie Tunney has helped make my two different homes wonderful and comfortable family gathering places. Her most recent project with us at the end of Covid when there was a major supply chain issue. Not only did she have access to supplies, but she also redid the inside of our Severn family home into an amazing family retreat. Along with renovating the kitchen, she also transformed other rooms in the house so there were more living/gathering spaces for our large extended family. We have had many family gatherings and everyone is in awe of her talent. Additionally, she is extremely fair in her costs and is excellent with time management.

Leslie’s excellent taste, keen eye and straight-shooting communication makes her the perfect partner for any design project. Whether structural, decorative or both, Leslie ensures that the end product is not only beautiful but that it represents the client’s taste, brings the client joy and, most importantly, supports and fits the client’s lifestyle. This is where Leslie’s skills and experience truly provide unique and immeasurable value. In doing our full home renovation- I could not have done it without her.

I had the great pleasure of working with Leslie Tunney for creative design and styling of my home recently. She was extremely efficient and was able to get painting and countertop contractors set up very quickly. My traditional home was transformed into a contemporary and modern looking residence in less than a month. She was able to stage the house very quickly and we received many compliments on how beautiful our interiors design was..... Especially impressive was that she was able to get this done during the pandemic when supplies for furniture and accessories were in short supply. I was very pleased with her work and highly recommend her for anyone needing to update their home. The icing on the cake was that I had a signed contract in less than a week of being on the market!

My husband and I hired Leslie Tunney to give the interior of our home a modern “facelift” in preparation for putting in on the market to sell. Her work is awe-inspiring! From our initial correspondence and meeting, Leslie’s communication was prompt, professional, and clear. For every question or concern, Leslie provided a solution. She and her trusted teams of workers performed on an expedited timeline and with our limited budget to transform the entire esthetic of our home, including: paining the entire interior, updating all light fixtures, recarpeting the master bedroom and stairs, window dressings, and several stage pieces of furniture and professional artwork. Working with Leslie made what was the most stressful time of transition in our family’s life bearable. We are forever grateful, not only for Leslie’s professional expertise but also for her kindness and compassion. Thank you, Leslie!

Leslie did an excellent job reorganizing my house for sale! My house sold within 5 days after she finished the work. I would recommend her to anyone

My 2.3 million dollar home was on the market for 7 months with no offer. Frustrated, I hired Leslie to come in and create a fresh look to draw in a better buyer. Leslie quickly did a brilliant job of making changes to make the house the best it’s ever looked. After she was finished, I received an offer within a week! She was born to do this!

I just want you to know how much I appreciate everything you and Ali have done and your inspiration. I am so psyched to work with you on my next (hopefully soon) project.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU‼️‼️😍

Leslie sees more than just the interior design. We hired her to evaluate architectural plans for a house renovation. After asking about our family, work and personal lives, she concluded, “you guys need to move not renovate!” I credit her with a great decision! To add to that, her staging help allowed us to sell our house in record time :-)

Leslie, I know I say this all the time, but you can’t imagine how much we enjoy our home now. I think we have had now a 12 people stay in our new “guest suite” since August…I feel like I’m running a little bed and breakfast J(free of charge of course). So fun!!

You and your team brought our home into the year 2016, with smart suggestions for updates to the 28-year old house. The renovation team was very efficient and professional, and completed the updates before the promised deadline. You added the “wow” factor for prospective buyers by making our house look brighter, more spacious and more contemporary. Thank you and your team for your hard work!

When Leslie Tunney first enters your house, she already has a vision – a vision of what the home should look like. She has a fabulous sense of style and design, yet is able to achieve a wonderful change while containing costs. Her energy and her creativity are without equal.
