Welcome aboard while you didn't ask as @DBCooper suggested you can do this in CA mostly with cabinet tools which have some advantages. It would likely be easier to make a few parts on SW since you know that. (Legs and hardware- rest in Chief)
Advantages being: would show in cabinet schedule, simple to resize/reuse, change doors/drawers/hardware, and of course materials. I understand that this is an off the shelf item but down the road you never know and I like to minimize remaking things.
The most tedious part in CA are the legs which I started before fully awake so fiddled a bit. Unfortunately the bead molding around the cabinet can't be done within the cabinet since it won't wrap the legs. Just before posting it occurred to me that it should be turned into a symbol to be easier to resize width and length so put one in the plan.
Plan attached including some of the failed parts for legs before I woke up. I didn't bother to do custom door or drawer symbols, just fished something close out of mfg catalog. Plan attached.
Looks really nice and thank you for the zip! below are ours together. How long did this take you??? SW is my professional tool and its fast for me, but CA looks a bit daunting, I'll try to see if I can do this is CA next time.

Hello,
I'm new to Chief Architect Premier X15 and when I needed a specific vanity from Costco, I made it in SolidWorks and imported it (via STL). The problem is that if I change the material to oak, the quartz top and hardware turn oak as well. How do i separate the top and hardware from the base so that the materials can be selected individually?
