By including the in-law suite in this custom home’s initial design-build plans, this family was able to create the ideal retirement residence for the homeowner’s parents. A separate entry and outdoor space allow for full privacy and independence from the main house while maintaining close proximity to the rest of the family. The grandparents sought a comfortable home for hosting extended family gatherings while allowing them to age in place.
The timeless, traditionally-styled home leans on elegant design details and vintage-touch fixtures like the lantern pendants, faucets, marbled tiles, and faux crystal knobs. A consistently serene colour palette is applied throughout with soft hues of light grey, taupe, and classic white complemented by brushed nickel finishes.
The all-white kitchen seamlessly blends into the open-concept space and is anchored by the kitchen island, topped in a soft Bianco Gioia quartz and contrasting charcoal grey cabinetry. Both bathrooms are tiled in elegant marble-look porcelain which is lower maintenance and less costly than stone.
