Cindy Raney and Team

Some agents market homes. I design them to sell.
With over a decade of experience as an interior designer - specializing in kitchen design, spatial planning, and renovation - I approach every listing with a strategic, design-first mindset. That means helping sellers not only showcase a home, but position it for maximum value.
From layouts and lighting to finishes and flow, I see what buyers will notice - and more importantly, what will move them. My goal is simple: to make your home feel irresistible, without spending more than you need to.
That instinct comes not only from design, but from experience. I’ve personally renovated multiple homes, managed two successful short-term rentals, and guided dozens of clients through high-impact listing prep. I know what matters, what adds value, and what creates that emotional “yes” moment for buyers.
But great real estate isn’t just about polish - it’s about empathy.
I’ve lived in Westport for more than 18 years, raised three sons here, and been through the very same transitions many of my clients are navigating - from the chaos of young kids to the quiet of an emptying nest. I understand what it means to say goodbye to a family home. I also understand how to create a new chapter with confidence and clarity.
That’s why my approach is equal parts strategy and support. Whether you’re prepping your forever home for market or investing in your next chapter, I’ll guide you through every step - with thoughtful planning, honest advice, and a designer’s eye for detail.
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me at Longshore or Fairfield Wheeler with a golf club in hand - or welcoming new members to Westport Moms: Embracing the Empty Nest, a community I founded to support women in transition.
Because at the end of the day, real estate isn’t just about where you live. It’s about how you live - and I’m here to help you do that beautifully.
