With this being their first house, these Toronto homeowners have been envisioning a space that feels and looks like their dream home. But with a cramped and dated kitchen that barred easy movement and comfortable room to entertain, flooring and paint in strong need of a refresh, and a stairwell that could use a little pick-me-up, their dream home was feeling pretty distant.

In order to finally close the gap between these goals and their current space, the homeowners reached out to Billdr, were paired with general contractor Atlas Renovations, and could embark on their renovation journey.

Floor-to-ceiling renovations for a rejuvenated space

The home’s original kitchen had a small layout that made it difficult to comfortably cook and spend time in, so the homeowners decided to make some significant changes. First, they opted to remove a wall that would open the kitchen up to the dining room and ultimately create an improved flow of space. Following this, they placed an island in the center of the kitchen with marble countertops and installed all new appliances for a sleek and refreshed look.

In addition to the kitchen, the homeowners decided to also give the rest of the home an upgrade. This entailed replacing the flooring, trim, painting, doors, and lighting, as well as the railings, treads, and risers on the stairwell. They also requested that the popcorn ceilings be scraped, which only emphasized the home’s total restoration.

With the style and features that fit their preferred way of living, these Toronto homeowners are finally able to enjoy their space and confidently call this house a home.
