Westmount Infill Home

Sometimes, the location is everything and in this case, the location close to Westmount country club was everything our clients wanted, but the home existing was not. With the expert design help of Elle3 Design & Interiors Inc. the existing home footprint was reimagined (with an further addition) to this stunning west coast modern craftsman beauty. The interior rises as you enter with vaulted ceilings throughout and the curves of the doorways soften the transitions through the main floor before you reach the quiet, private, rear yard. The dream kitchen and pantry are equally complemented by the light-filled great room.

Waterloo Mid Century Modern Transformation

A house can be a home for a long time before the desire for a complete transformation becomes a reality. This was the case in this mid-1900s construction that was reconstructed into this mid-century modern beauty! The main floor is open and expansive, while still remaining welcoming and homey, while the finishes remain warm and comfortable. The entirely new second floor is bright and open while the master suite opens into the hidden oasis of a backyard, tucked away from the street and passerbys. Without a before photo, it’s nearly impossible to picture the transformation from quiet story and a half to stunning showpiece.

Puslinch Country Pool House

The desire to bring the outdoors inside is clear with this pool house that fully opens to the outdoors in the beautiful summer weather and remains warm and cozy in the winter. The entire front wall of the building folds to the side to enable that transformation, while the fully equipped kitchen and facilities enable hosts and guests alike to enjoy the area to the fullest.

Puslinch Country Addition

At times, clients wish that the planned addition to their home looks like it was part of the original home construction! This was the case in this 650SF addition in rural Puslinch. Please review the photos and see if you can observe where the original construction stops and the new construction begins. The result is an expansive kitchen, mudroom, and laundry area with a hidden pantry. The area is bright and full of light, capturing the design intent of bringing the beautiful exterior into the home.

Kiwanis Park Interior

Details and trim work are the calling card of this Kiwanis Park renovation, which included a new main floor layout to the original custom-built home. Each finishing detail was carefully considered, mocked up on site, then installed and finished under the expert care of Sutcliffe Homes personnel working in conjunction with the design team at Elle3 Design & Interiors Inc. The client’s desire was that the existing window layout and some aspects of the original construction remained intact and were complimented by new features. For example, fresh limestone sills wrap the interior window, while the CNC cut millwork detail aligns flawlessly on either side of the custom fit glass pane. The same design carries into the living room as it adds more subtle detail to the TV wall.

Mid Century Modern Wet Room

The homeowners of this Hanlon Creek two storey gave up space in their master bedroom to expand the main bathroom for this result! The mid-century modern vanity, matte gold hardware and taps are a perfect complement to the open wet area. Features of the wet area include a flush entry shower and soaker tub where you can splash to your heart’s content. The shower controls are accessible without entering the wet area, eliminating goosebumps when the shower is first turned on!

Elora Century Update

This 19th century home lacked a dedicated laundry room – something important to the homeowners. The back hallway now hosts laundry cabinetry and machines, while the bright powder room makes excellent use of a smaller space. The highlight is the open kitchen with large island and coffee bar. Most important is what cannot be photographed – elimination of baseboard heaters and significant improvements to the kitchen insulation and HVAC system make this space a cozy, comfortable part of the home.

 

Sutcliffe Homes and Renovations respect the character of a century home and enjoy nothing more than applying modern construction features to the classic traditional homes of Guelph and Wellington county.  Check out this century home addition and this Elora Porch rebuild for further inspiration.

Hanlon Creek Kitchen

The removal of a load bearing wall and replacement with an engineered beam opened up this kitchen and family room. This created a larger shared space for dining, relaxing, and entertaining. The beverage cabinet was sized to exactly fit the new beam dimension – attention to detail where it counts.

Minimalist Space

Black and white minimalist lines dominate this Old University area renovation, but the natural tone hardwood flooring warms the space. This sleek and modern kitchen is deceptively simple. A myriad of details enhance the space. The barn door hides an office area, while drywall window returns highlight the window choices. The specialty glass window sits flush with the hardwood floor allowing for maximum light and the Caesarstone countertop meets the wide-open kitchen window. Looking for a change from traditional? Let’s talk.

Downtown Character Update

This downtown Guelph bungalow is full of character, but now the renovated space welcomes you in with a modern kitchen set against the original brick and a bright open living room. Spend time in the cozy family room that underwent an amazing change with a patio door and double sidelights opening onto the back patio. The transformation of this space is amazing! Invite us to stand in your space and let’s design your transformation too!
