TRADITION, WITH MODERN TWIST
Pawluk Homes blends in contemporary elements to create a timeless style
Many new houses are mixing traditional design with contemporary elements. The result is often a timeless look with a family friendly vibe. The new Pawluk Homes show home at 132 Glacial Shores Ct. in Evergreen encapsulates all these things.
Immediately, the home is welcoming with modern tones of grey and white. The open concept living area is punctuated by a fireplace with floor-to-ceiling tile surround.
Polished chrome knobs and extra wide plank baseboards and window trim give a feeling of refinement and elegance.
The floor plan is generous with space and storage options. The kitchen features quartz countertops and a beautiful subway tile in a hint of grey.
The farmhouse sink gets a modern twist in stainless steel adding a traditional, but sleek look to the kitchen. White shaker style cabinets include a plate rack and vintage bubble glass cupboard doors. Add in a fantastically large island and the space is going to be practical for large family gatherings or anyone who likes to entertain.
“It’s really neat for entertaining. Some people use this as their buffet,” says Pawluk Homes’ Raichelle Robinson.
A floating console along the far wall provides the perfect media storage under a wall-mounted TV.
“That’s one thing with the very open concept is that people often complain that they don’t have places to hide stuff. Every single functional space needs to hide things. So this design makes that a little bit easier. And the floating aspect of it makes it a little more incorporated into the design,” explains Robinson.
Throughout the living area beautiful hardwood with a matte finish provides a functional surface and backdrop for the sleek white kitchen.
Even with the rest of the house already tipping the scales of elegant refinement, the master ensuite bath is still breathtaking in grey tiles with a stand-alone tub and separate shower. There is some spa-level pampering to happen here.
The garage is fully insulated and drywalled, and includes massive windows facing the street to add to the street appeal of the home, plus make the garage brighter and more functional.
All the speakers are wired-in throughout the house — even in the garage and on the back deck, meaning you can listen to your music wherever you go.
Busy moms and dads will rejoice at the fully kitted mudroom. There’s space for the laundry appliances, a beautiful big sink, large drawers and upper cabinets for storage, plus lockers, coat hooks, and more drawers and cabinets on the other side.
The basement is fully insulated and because of the bungalow design has lots of space for more bedrooms, a recreation room and bathroom.
This 1,808-square-foot home has two bedroom, plus a den and is listed at $699,999.
