What does it take to turn a choppy floor plan into a welcoming space made for entertaining that meets the needs of today’s families? A thoughtful and well-executed design that turned this hidden gem in Wellington West into a multi-award winner.

A small addition and a rethink of the existing space allowed for the creation of a large, open-concept kitchen and family room, roomy formal dining room with butler’s pantry, easy access to the backyard and a sumptuous master ensuite.

The Arts and Crafts theme offers a welcoming warmth, both inside and on the refreshed exterior, and the design cleverly combines modern and traditional elements for a home that now works wonderfully for the family.
