A fourth bedroom with a full en suite on the main floor has been a hit with potential buyers. While the house was designed pre-pandemic, it delivers all the goods buyers are looking for today — lots of kitchen workspace and storage, a bright, open great room and ready-made spaces suitable for an office, playroom or teen hangout. “It was built with a family in mind,” Curtis says. “It checks so many boxes because it is functional.” MIXED BLESSINGS — Cont’d from page 94
FAMILIES TODAY NEED SEPARATE SPACES FOR SCHOOLWORK, A HOME OFFICE, A GYM AND ENTERTAINMENT.
The same can be said of the KDR Homes’ show home down the street at 35 Highpark Dr. The two-storey home is positively luminous — thanks to oversize windows, an in-vogue designer lighting package and a colour scheme that’s heavy on white, with pops of blue in kitchen and great-room cabinetry and grey veins in foyer flooring and feature- wall tile. Clean, elegant and roomy, it backs on to another park, with a deck and oversized windows in the rear to take advantage of the view. KDR Homes president Diego Vassallo says families today need separate spaces for schoolwork, a home office, a gym and entertainment. His company’s homes have proven popular over the past year, partly because they tend to be big but also because they’re big on style and comfort. The Highpark Drive show home has a huge primary bedroom with an en suite that works as a luxe retreat. Cont’d on page 98
