Description.
A complete, head-to-toe home renovation in Toronto.
What we found. An older Toronto home that was dated and worn throughout. The floors squeaked underfoot, and the main floor was closed off with a layout that no longer suited how people live. The original oak and cherry staircase and traditional details gave the home a heavy, dated feel.
What we did. We removed and reconfigured the main floor layout to open the space, then renovated the home from head to toe. The rooms were rebuilt around the new layout and finished with one cohesive, modern look.
Where it ended up. A bright, open home that feels like a different house from the one we walked into.
The renovation.
Main floor layout
Removed and reconfigured to open the space and suit how the family lives.
Head to toe
Every room renovated from the original, dated finishes to one cohesive new look.
Kitchen
Flat-panel cabinets in a light finish, a stone-clad island and stone backsplash. Floating wood shelves and a built-in wine fridge keep the storage clean.
Living room
A built-in media wall with open shelving and a linear fireplace in a grey stone surround. It anchors the room and hides the wiring.
Bathroom
A glass walk-in shower, a freestanding tub, a floating vanity with a backlit mirror, and matte black fixtures.
