EYE-CATCHING KARMA

Award-winning floor plan is functional in size and options

- JOSH SKAPIN

Karma is a townhome that measures up in both in size and features with a single-family home option.

The biggest of the floor plans at Avira in EvansRidge, Karma is a tape measure-stretching 1,698 square feet but can reach 1,726 square feet.

Avira is a complex by seasoned builder Jayman Modus located on Evansridge Court.

Jayman Modus is also behind multi-family projects in Mahogany, Currie Barracks and Nolan Hill. EvansRidge is by Dream Developmen­t and known for scenic stretches of green space and its close to a long list of amenities.

Karma is a three-storey floor plan with three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms along with a heated two-car garage.

It’s an award-winning floor plan that’s also offered at the builder’s Ebony developmen­t in Mahogany.

The model is functional in a number of ways, led by a kitchen with the space and features that will whet the appetite of any domestic chef.

It all starts with food preparatio­n.

Large stretches of counter space and an expansive island mean finding a place to chop and dice vegetables won’t be a problem.

And scrub those vegetables in the sunshine with sink under a large rear-facing dual-pane window.

The kitchen is in a functional Lshaped orientatio­n with room for two or more cooks to move freely without feeling cramped.

It boasts granite counters and a sleek Whirlpool stainless steel appliance package that includes an over-the-range microwave and a smooth-top self-cleaning range.

The kitchen has an eye-catching full-height ceramic tile backsplash along with an abundance of cabinets with soft-close hardware.

A few steps away from the kitchen is a dining area, where there’s access to a vinyl deck. Adjacent to the dining area is a generously sized great room highlighte­d by a tall set of windows. The great room is a welcoming gathering space with more than enough square footage for a couch, chairs and a coffee table.

The townhome is also footfriend­ly with engineered laminate or carpet with a cushy seven-pound underlay.

Just off the kitchen, there’s access to stairs that stretch up to the second floor. Along the way, a small door opens to a handy storage space.

This spot will also be magnet for kids who are looking for a fun hideaway.

The bedrooms are on the top floor with two secondary bedrooms on one end of the level and the master bedroom on the other.

A central full bathroom and the ensuite separate the master bedroom from the secondary bedrooms.

With the master bedroom, windows are a presence, once again. Two of the walls feature sprawling windows that inject the space with large amounts of sunlight.
