Heritage Revival in the Heart of the North Shore
Blending history with modern living, this home renovation reimagines a cherished family residence for the next generation. Honoured with the Best Renovation $1 Million to $1.5 Million at the HAVAN Awards, the project stands out for its attention to detail, quality of design, and respect for the home’s legacy.

Creating a Home for Generations
Our team approached this home improvement project with care and vision. The renovation honours the past while embracing a modern aesthetic designed for entertaining and comfortable everyday living. The clients envisioned a space that would feel open, functional, and rich in warmth and texture.

Enhancing Everyday Function
Every detail of our custom home renovation was carefully considered to improve comfort, flow, and long-term livability.

Indoor and Outdoor Living: Folding patio doors now open into a spacious new desk, ideal for year-round use, entertaining and creates a strong connection to the outdoors.


Bathroom Renovation: In this full bathroom remodelling, our approach involved completely redesigning the primary ensuite with a raised roofline and added skylights. The new layout features an enclosed shower with a bench, private toilet room, and custom storage, offering both elegance and practicality.
Refreshed Laundry Room: We upgraded the laundry room with modern cabinetry, open shelving, and generous counter space to make everyday tasks more seamless and enjoyable.
The team maximized the use of existing framing wherever possible to ensure smooth integration between the original structure and new additions.

Honouring Heritage with Modern Comfort: In the library, painted millwork in a moody tone added depth and character. Original stained glass windows and a new stone fireplace preserved the home’s heritage charm.
Opening Up the Heart of the Home
We removed the walls between the foyer, dining area, and kitchen to create a spacious, light-filled main floor.



The new layout flows effortlessly, unified by a palette of natural stone, white oak, brushed brass, and soft nickel.


The front entry now makes a bold first impression with a sleek black door, sculptural lighting, and curved iron stair railings, modern features that complements the home’s original charm.
Building in Efficiency
This home improvement project incorporates performance-focused upgrades to boost comfort and reduce energy usage.
- Heating and Hot Water: A high-efficiency condensing tankless water heater with low NOx emissions was installed.
- Windows and Appliances: Energy-efficient windows and appliances improve performance and sustainability.
- Air Tightness: A vapour-permeable membrane was applied to key areas and sealed with high-performance tapes to strengthen the building envelope.
This outdoor space functions as an “outdoor room,” adding to the culture, activities, and lifestyle of the home as much as any indoor area.

A Thoughtful Transformation
This renovation is a true reflection of the family’s heritage. It is rooted in tradition, designed for connection, and built for the future. Every room balances beauty with purpose, ready to welcome new memories while honouring those that came before.
