For many homeowners, downsizing is not just about finding a smaller space—it’s about creating a home that reflects their lifestyle, values, and personal style. That was precisely the goal for a recent project in Fonthill, where a couple sought to refresh their home and make it a welcoming retreat for themselves, their children, and their grandchildren.
Although their home was built only 13 years ago, it lacked the personality and charm they envisioned. The finishes were builder-basic, and the space did not fully reflect their tastes or needs for the years ahead. That’s when they turned to the dream team: Elizabeth Montilla Design for expert planning and design, and Spruceside Construction for flawless execution.
Together, we crafted a thoughtful renovation plan that respected their budget and timeline while enhancing the home’s functionality, comfort, and aesthetic appeal. The result is a stunning transformation that blends timeless elegance with modern convenience—one that the homeowners can enjoy for a lifetime.
A Sophisticated Yet Functional Refresh
By carefully listening to our clients’ needs and wishlists, we designed a space that balances beauty and practicality. A brighter colour palette now breathes life into every room, creating an inviting atmosphere. High-end materials elevate the overall look and durability, including:
✅ Wide plank white-oak hardwood flooring – adding warmth and character underfoot.
✅ Premium quartz countertops – offering both luxury and resilience.
✅ Durable vinyl wallpaper in the Mudroom – ensuring a stylish yet easy-to-maintain finish.
✅ A spa-like Ensuite – designed for ultimate relaxation, with high-end finishes that feel indulgent yet timeless.
Beyond aesthetics, the renovation prioritizes aging-in-place considerations, ensuring the home remains comfortable and functional for years to come.
Looking Ahead
Elizabeth Montilla Design and Spruceside Construction are proud to have delivered a home that exceeds expectations, and we’re excited to collaborate again this summer. With a strong focus on quality craftsmanship and personalized design, our team is now accepting new full-scale renovation projects for Fall/Winter 2025.
