Builder: Hilton Homes
Selling Price: $392,948 Plus GST and Land

The dark rich wall in the great room continues the Hilton tradition of creating a feature wall. It has a very elegant appeal to it.

There is a very effective use of space by having the mud room lead to a bathroom that leads to a bedroom.

80 Brookstone Place - South Pointe

Builder: Maric Homes
Selling Price: $830,229 Plus GST and Land
Type: Bungalow


This house has a beautiful contemporary design that will never go out of style. I particularly liked the His and Hers walk-in closets in the master bedroom. At least it’s nice in theory before the husband is forced to move his clothes down the hallway.

I particularly was impressed with salesperson Bob Beaudry’s enthusiasm in working for Maric Homes. He couldn’t say enough about the uniqueness of design, the conceptual ingenuity and the excitement of each new product.

This house opens up to the eyes immediately upon entering it. Although certainly a good size, it appears even bigger due to the efficient use of space.

The fully developed basement is adaptable to a variety of activities including bar area, TV room, exercise room and storage.

The Master bedroom has a huge walk-in closet and a very large ensuite featuring a three sided glass shower with a rain shower and hand held and twin sinks.

As soon as you enter the body of the home, you see the classic Randall signature wall that is a feature in many of their homes.

The covered deck adds to the amount of outdoor use available.

There is extremely good utilization of pocket doors throughout the house.

Type: Cab-Over


The foyer is somewhat separated from the rest of the house in that there are steps leading to the great room, kitchen and second floor bedrooms. This enables privacy from the rest of the house for those at the front door.

The kitchen is bright and open; very inviting.

The Master bedroom is a cab-over in the front of the house with a beautiful picture window. This makes an already large room look even larger.

I liked the selection of the baseball, golf and hockey sculptures in the basement.

Builder: A&S Homes
Selling Price: $304,281 Plus GST and Land
Type: 2-Storey


If you are looking for a home with street appeal then this is it!! As we pulled up we realized this home was special.

Walking up the stairs of this palatial home we were greeted with one of the grandest foyers yet. Once again another home with natural light coming in through the front windows. Event though this is becoming very familiar it really makes a difference to how you perceive the size of the property.

Walking through the foyer we reach a fantastic Great room with a huge entertainment centre with a beautiful ceramic tile fireplace on the left hand wall.

The kitchen is one that I can see would be a pleasure to prepare meals in and includes an eating/dining area, island with extended countertop, raised nook, walk-in pantry, granite countertops and maple cabinetry. There is a sliding door near the pantry that leads you back towards the front of the house where there is a small bathroom and the entrance to the garage. I really like this feature as the distance to the pantry from the car is really short.

As we head upstairs we realize we are yet to see the laundry…..

At the top of the stairs we are greeted by what I would call a reading nook. A nice little spot to read a book maybe?

There are 2 good sized bedrooms with built in robes which are great for hiding all of the kid’s toys and a nice three piece bathroom.

Ah….The laundry. At first we are a little confused as to why a laundry would be upstairs…..After all how would you hang your wet clothes on the clothes line? Coming from Australia the laundry was always downstairs and close to a door. After thinking about it we realize, Of course!!! you can’t hang your washing outside in -40 and we start to feel a bit stupid.

The last part of this tour end with the master bedroom. A great walk in closet is at the entrance to the ensuite which is well equipped with a great soker tub.

I think we would be very comfortable living here.

Type: Cab-Over


Having moved to Canada recently we were unsure of what a “Cab-Over” was. Not until we enter this home do we realize the potential of this extra space!

This home is a LARGE 3 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom Cab-Over home. The first thing you notice as you enter is the really high ceilings in the foyer. As with most of the homes we have seen this home uses lots of natural light to make it feel much bigger than it actually is. The “bay windows” in the formal living area are really nice to. These windows also allow lots of natural light to come into the front of the home.

As we move further into the home we are confronted by an area that is engulfed by space! This is the living/dining/kitchen area that looks out onto the back yard. The corner gas fireplace in the living room looks like a great area to relax in after a hard day at work. In the kitchen the island style bench will be great for preparing meals while keeping an eye on the kids out in the yard.

With two bedrooms that have lots of closet space and a bathroom down stairs, this is a great level for the kids as everything is accessible without having to climb up the stairs

Climbing up the stairs we notice that there is only one room…….mmm interesting. The entire level all to ourselves! I really really like this house!!!

With a huge master suite that includes one of the most luxurious ensuites and walk in robes I have seen so far, I am going to find it tough to leave this house and not leave a deposit!!

The Sarasota

Walking through the front entrance of this home you are greeted by a light and open plan living area with high ceilings and large windows.

There is large mudroom off to the right of the living area that allows easy access into the house from the garage.

There is a great fireplace and built in entertainment unit in the great room which would be fantastic for family gatherings.

The raised eating bar in the kitchen and the great Island style bench would make this kitchen a fun place to prepare meals. The pantry is walk in style with a big open bench to the left.

As we go up the stairs we notice the finish on the handrails…..For some reason these really stand out to me. The attention to detail is amazing.

The first set of stairs leads to another really nice living area that would be a great playroom for the kids as it has easy access to the bedrooms. The ceilings are high which once again gives the impression of space. There is another fire place and room for entertainment equipment on the wall.

Continuing on up to the bedrooms we find two bedrooms adjoining a large family friendly bathroom. This is great for families with little ones as it is close to both bedrooms. The spacious master bedroom complete with a really nice ensuite with soaker tub and walk-in closet provide Mum and Dad with a tranquil space of our own.

All things considered this is a great house that any family would be proud to call home!

The modest exterior of this home does not do the exquisite interior justice!

Upon entry into the home, you are greeted with a double sided fireplace that is shared with the great room. The large entry way ensures guests will not be tripping over themselves coming and going.

To the right of the home are the sleeping quarters and bathrooms. The perfect sized master ensuite is just enough to spoil the master, but not too over the top to steal square footage from the rest of the home. His and hers closets complete the master suite and it wasn’t hard to figure out which closet would belong to the woman in this house!

The expansive kitchen is definitely one to see – wall-to-wall cabinets and a walk-in pantry provide more than enough storage and practicality. The Caesar stone island is very large and is a chefs delight. A very large eating area completes the kitchen with a view of the lake. Garden doors to an exterior covered patio are an added bonus and this space could easily be transformed into a 3-season sunroom.

The fully finished lower level is just as impressive as the main floor. Super-sized windows make this feel open and bright - for those that have an aversion to basements, this house is for you! The basement is complete with a games area, media area, and two bedrooms.

The home was my absolute favourite! This amazing 3-bedroom walk-out bungalow uses every square inch of the 1,995 sq. ft. From the ribbon fireplace in the large front foyer to the fantastic layout of the lower level, you are in for a treat with this home. Definitely built with practicality and space optimization in mind.

It is both luxurious and functional. The open plan main floor is inviting and comfortable. The oversized kitchen with granite and Ceasar stone counters and gorgeous cupboards, along with the large eating area, with built-in counter server, and the great room with the ribbon fireplace to the large open foyer is stunning. The eating area leads to a covered outside deck area.

The master bedroom is large and features His and Hers walk-in closets. This master is just the right size, with a well-designed ensuite. Check out the faucets in the bathrooms!

The large back entrance includes a laundry area with plenty of space and storage. A 2nd bedroom, 4-pce bathroom and large front office\bedrooom complete the main floor.

The lower level walk-out is well designed with a common family room area. A large bedroom with walk-in closet is off the family room. Around the corner is a 3-pce bathroom with fully enclosed glass shower and linen closet. A 2nd bedroom or office with a large double closet complete the lower level which also has access to the attached garage. The back entrance in the lower level is large enough to add a second laundry area.

This home came the closest to suit our needs… Plenty of space in the main floor common areas, with private bedroom quarters for the younger family.. The lower level provided a second ‘master’ suite for the in-laws, with a 3 pce well-designed upscale bathroom just outside the door. If only this home had garage parking for 4 vehicles……

Definitely a must – see! (and almost a must-have for me!)

91 Kingfisher Crescent - South Pointe

Builder: Hilton Custom Homes
Selling Price: $343,333 Plus GST and Land
Type: 2-Storey


This home has been built with comfort and style in mind however is also clearly designed with young families in mind. As you enter the home you are greeted by a sitting area and dining room on the left hand side. As you meander through we notice the hardwood floors which are very nice and will be great for the kid’s messes. When we reach the kitchen which is conveniently located adjacent to the formal dining room we are surprised at the size of the huge casual dining area that is next to a great room. This house has a great island bench with granite top to match the rest of the kitchen. The light maple colour of the kitchen lightens it up and makes it feel very spacious. As we leave this area we are presented with a den or study with its own bathroom which will be great for when we have guests.

Upstairs has a nice loft that would be a great kids play area and has three bedrooms. The master has a great ensuite and has a huge walk in robe. There is also a second bathroom on this level that also has a bath tub.

This is a great family home and is a perfect size for our family of 5.

Pausing for a moment to admire the street presence of this new upscale residence we realize this house is going to be very luxurious inside. Upon entering into the pure luxury this house is we very quickly realize that even though the finish is very attractive it also addresses all aspects of the lifestyle we’ve dreamed of enjoying – there’s the cosy study or 3rd bedroom upstairs for quiet moments, the great room for entertaining guests or just to get away, the vast dining, living and kitchen hub. The kitchen is fantastic and has an island style bench as well as lots of natural light coming through the dining room windows.


Upstairs the other 2 bedrooms cluster around yet another leisure room, and the master has a well appointed ensuite.

Another great family home!

The Brickwood is an impressive and luxurious home that will stand out in any setting with its front porch and balanced appeal. A sweeping staircase with a grand looking landing overlooking the front sitting room draws you into the home from the entry foyer and up to the second level comprising three oversize bedrooms, all of which include large walk in / built in robes. The large sitting room or loft and generous master bedroom suite with direct access to the luxurious movie star style ensuite make the top level of this house feel extra spacious.

Spacious living areas including a formal dining room, large eating area, living room with a built in entertainment unit, den and huge kitchen with walk in pantry form the lower level of this home, making it perfect for entertaining family and friends.

The Monticello is an exciting home, perfect for a young family. As you enter the home you are greeted by a formal dining room that has a nice big window overlooking the front yard. As we moved further in we were surprised by the well thought out open-plan living area with the HUGE built in entertainment unit that is separated from the kitchen by a cool “half wall”. Upon further inspection this wall had a neat series of shelves on the living room side and a wine bottle holder in the end. One of the most unique things about this home is the kitchen with a huge walk in panty that you can enter from both the garage and the kitchen. This is great for bringing groceries in from the car and dropping them right in the pantry.

With three large bedrooms upstairs, the master with an ensuite that anyone would die for and a large void overlooking the downstairs living area, this house feels bigger than it is. With a separate bathroom for the children upstairs and a huge walk in robe in the master bedroom this house ticks all the boxes for people with young kids.

While this home did not meet our own personal needs, it would make a fantastic home for young professionals seeking a large home that definitely sets itself apart from the standard cookie-cutter home.

Upon entry into the home, you are greeted by a lovely double sided ribbon fireplace which is shared with the family room. The beautiful 24 X 24 ceramic tile floor looks fabulous and is consistent throughout the entire home.

The living room and dining room have expansive 18 foot ceilings which make the space feel very large and the abundance of windows allows the natural light to flow through the entire main floor of this home.

The main floor laundry room is completely separate from the back entrance and is complete with sink, cabinets, and Caesar stone countertops.

The huge island kitchen is conducive to entertaining large crowds with ease. The glass tile backsplash is gorgeous as are the Caesar stone countertops.

The fully finished walk-out basement provides enough space for a large entertainment/media area, exercise room, extra bedroom, and full bath. The basement also has one of the neatest features I’ve ever seen – a storage shed with access from the basement utility room, complete with a single overhead garage door to the backyard. What a cool feature! It takes the proverbial “man-cave” to the next level!

Susan

This uniquely designed home would be best suited for the younger professional family with room to grow. The curb appeal of the home captures your attention immediately with the professionally finished landscaping leading to the formal entrance. When you enter the home, you will love the dining room light fixture immediately to your right, after being greeted by the see-through fireplace in the main entrance.

The pantry in the kitchen is awesome. It is the full length of the kitchen wall and offers plenty of kitchen storage.

The main floor plan is open with 2 family areas – with plenty of windows and glass. Both family areas are off the kitchen, and the main family area adds a red splash of color with the built in shelving unit.

The master bedroom on the 2nd level, is big and beautiful with an open view to the family room below. All the closet doors were self-closing, which was also pretty cool.

A really neat feature was the utility garage on the lower level of this walkout home. It was adjacent to the furnace room and had enough room to store all your lawn equipment and then some. It had a utility garage door accessible from the back yard. Very Cool!

Although this home did not suit our specific needs, if you are looking for ‘unique-ness’, this is the one for you!
