Kitchen panorama... it is almost surreal to be walking around this space knowing what it was when I first started.

Upper beaches custom

Today I had a chance to go see one on my favorite sites, very happy with the outcome.

This project is situated on Red Deer, next door to another one of my favorite project.

The photo shows part of the front/ side wall. Finishes chosen are dark brick and tongue and groove cedar boards, and the gables will be finished in cedar shakes. I can already see it. Stay tuned for more.

Before: Originally an outdated, 1000 square foot detached bungalow with good bones in the East Beaches, Toronto.

After: This house was fully gutted, redesigned, restructured and renovated to include a second floor, resulting in 2400 square feet of gorgeous, well thought out and contemporary living space.

The story: The builders wanted a house that fit in with traditional Toronto architecture, but with a modern touch.

Design highlights:
- Ceiling heights were raised in the basement and 1st floor to open up the space.
- Unique and modern dark stucco and cedar created a striking, contrasting exterior,
- The layout was opened up for more flow.
- Creating a formal and informal area allowed for future owners to entertain guests in a stylish, elegant setting while keeping their family’s space comfortable and functional.
- 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and plenty of closet space were created on the second floor.
- Most notably, every inch of the floorplan was put to good use. No space was wasted in the layout in this house.

The sale: The house sold after only 5 days on the market well over above the asking price.

Designer: Gabriele Guiducci, M.A.A.T.O.
