The Exhibition Park area is one of Guelph’s classic neighbourhoods. Picture a large, amenity-filled city park surrounded by an eclectic mix of century homes only a short walk from downtown.
Like many renovation projects it started with the need for a practical revamping of an existing space. In this case reworking the staircase to allow for a cleaner landing and some additional storage. In keeping with the character of this charming home the renovation featured painted cabinets with a vintage back-splash and granite counter-top, custom wall paneling with transom windows and a custom pocket door leading to the hideaway pantry and stairway landing.

This addition is a 600 square foot work of art blended onto the side and rear of this century-old Guelph stone home. The clients approached Sutcliffe Homes after an architect drew their plans. They were ready for pricing and comment. The project presented many challenges – the small city lot, matching in the limestone and installing stone arches from the old to the new. The project grew to include installing a flagstone patio with barbecue pit and hot tub area. Working daily with the knowledgeable and talented purchasers made the project easier as decisions were made quickly and resulted in a truly beautiful home.

There’s a new house on the block: Oak Hill Co-living. Starting as the brainchild of four Rockwood residents, Oak Hill Co-Living is an affordable downsizing option for seniors. It goes something like this: individuals buy ownership in a shared home and share any household decision making and costs. Each resident has their own private bed/sitting room and bathroom while the kitchen, dining room, living room, and laundry room are shared among 6 like-minded adults. Situated in Rockwood’s walkable community Oak Hill Co-Living presents an alternative housing option for adults who may be looking into retirement living. The co-living lifestyle gives seniors an affordable home that fosters community while maintaining privacy.
Sutcliffe Homes is proud to bring the plans of Jeanette, Anne, Elisabeth, and Bonnie to reality and get in on the ground floor of the co-living lifestyle.

This solid home in an upscale Guelph neighbourhood was a prime candidate for a major renovation project. The owners, working professionals with a growing family, needed more space. Due to the limitations on the lot, the only way was up!
Adding an extra floor to a home is challenging to get visually and structurally correct. The homeowners understood how important it was to work with an experienced renovation company and were referred to Sutcliffe Homes. They couldn’t be happier with the results and with their renovation experience.
The design staff at Sutcliffe worked with the homeowners to envision the new space. The renovation project was expanded to include extensive changes to the main floor of the home including a stunning new kitchen.
This home is tucked away on a quiet road bordering the Guelph Country Club. This renovation project kept the kitchen in the original space, but focused on usability and storage. The homeowners worked closely with one of the talented designers at sister company Sutcliffe Kitchens to create a kitchen that incorporates function and storage with a beautiful design. The elegantly stained maple cabinets with custom glass inserts and eye-popping white quartz countertop blend beautifully. Details include the integrated drawer panels on the custom dishwasher and the playfully practical toe kick drawers.
