The design

Mid-century modern home styles originated during the middle of the 20th century. Traditionally, the style is rooted in functionality, clean lines and simplicity. Today, the style often incorporates bright accent colours on the walls or through furniture as a standout feature. Mixing materials as a fusion of indoor and outdoor spaces is another popular focus of mid-century modern design, including vinyl and fibreglass with natural materials like wood, marble or metals.

This home boasts many mid-century modern elements with its open spaces, minimalistic furniture and decor balanced against bright pops of colour, a natural wood-burning fireplace, and plenty of natural lighting.

 

What to love

Spread across four levels, this home is ideal for a new or growing family with its four bedrooms, den and three and a half bathrooms. While renovated in 2014, the home’s mid-century modern feel and style have been carefully maintained over the years. The main floor features a wood-burning fireplace in the spacious, bright living room, while the kitchen provides plenty of cooking space, storage options, modern appliances and a bright splash of colour.

The second floor has two bedrooms (one with an ensuite bathroom and laundry combination) and an additional bathroom. The third floor has a mudroom for extra storage, a powder room and a flexible media room. The fourth floor offers two additional bedrooms, another bathroom and a flex den room to customize to your home lifestyle.

 

What to consider

Located in the Elbow Park community, this home is just a short walk or drive to skating, tennis, winter sledding, dog parks and more. The river pathways are also just minutes away, offering scenic walk or running options.
