Where it is

74 Valour Circle S.W.

 

The design

Inside and out, this home features a balanced blend of French Tudor and Mediterranean designs. French Tudor is a style that blends English Tudor design elements with subtle additions of rustic French country home architecture and designs. Steeply pitched roofs and exterior stucco, wood and stone are often featured in French country houses, and are architectural details in this home as well.

Inside, the steepled roof creates high, soaring ceilings that are often finished with wood accents and tied into millwork throughout. Adding a rustic yet elegant feel, the inclusion of a fireplace is also part of the French country home style. In French Tudor and Mediterranean-inspired homes, the kitchen is especially meant to be the heart and centre of the home.

 

What to love

Nestled in the Currie community, this home blends timeless charm and comfort. The exterior boasts high, steepled roofs, large windows and bold black accents. Inside, soaring 10-foot ceilings create a welcoming atmosphere.

The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, with high-end appliances and an oversized island to welcome friends and family around. In the living room, bring your hot cup of cocoa and settle in front of the charming fireplace, which is framed with built-in custom cabinetry.

The warmth and elegance continue into the primary bedroom, which has 13-foot ceilings, a walk-in closet and an ensuite. The ensuite boasts a dual vanity, standalone tub, a tiled shower with a bench and heated floors.

The basement completes the home with a stylish wet bar, wine fridge, two bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom.
