I see many aren't grasping the brilliant concept going into this build . This house is Everything! The manifestation of your work is truly a breath of fresh air !!🌿🌿❇️🌿🌿

[@WildWest144]

Beautiful house but it's quite strange to enter directly into the dining room, I would definitely have to do something different there. I would also have to get rid of that partition between the kitchen and the family room, I get the concept but that doesn't work at all. Everything else is lovely, very tastefully done and hey for $100.00 someone was lucky enough to live there.

[@fiddlersthree8463]

I agree on both points. While I absolutely love the dining room with its height and brightness, I would want something between this room and the entryway. Probably an easy enough adjustment to make. However, the partition between the kitchen and family room would be a non-starter for me. It looks like a temporary screen hiding construction. In a house like this, why not a custom-made bookcase or something other than the panels? Otherwise, the house is stunning.

[@brendanbang6636]

Thank you.. I was thinking exactly the same.. seem weird to bring meals so far out. Everything else is gorgeous.

[@ConceptsInHealth]

I too came here to comment on the partitioned wall between the family room and kitchen. The eye goes right to that space--and not in a good way. It looks temporary or like an afterthought and doesn’t fit the grandness of the home. If you’re going to go that far why not go ahead and take the wall to the ceiling for a bit more noise and light control and better provide a backdrop fitting a console or some great art. I love the kitchen--especially the leaded glass cabinet fronts. Tiling the back cabinet walls makes all the difference😍

[@AwesomeCanadianHomes]

@@fiddlersthree8463 If I had a beautiful kitchen like that, I wouldn't want to hide it with that partition. I think removing it would be easy though.

[@gabberella4726]

I agree on both points. Also the front door entry is claustrophobic. Very closed off and tiny for a house that size. With the exception of some changes on the main floor, the top and bottom floors are perfect. The pool is beautiful too.

[@alexandrailnyckyj6059]

Lovely house. Two odd things that I could not adapt to easily. First, a dining room at the entry. Odd way to receive guests and very inconvenient for serving a meal. Second, the barrier between the kitchen and family room. What mess are you anticipating that needs blocking? Instead, you have blocked beautiful sight lines. If folks can handle playing pool and seeing the laundry room, they can handle sitting on a couch and looking at the lovely kitchen.

[@HenryJr.Pardinas]

[@tish9144]

I must say, I am not impressed with Brian's work this year, I've seen better. I loved his earlier work better. I don't think he did this house justice. The only rooms I do like are the 2nd and third bedrooms and the other bathrooms.

[@pwinzesminidu]

Same! Been following his princess Margaret homes for years now. This is beautiful but a little let down from his previous work.

The library has wine but no books! It is for oenophiles not bibliophiles.

lol

[@christinedonovan2704]

Well it isnt a Library without books. Id rather have books, cozy armchairs and a wine cellar in the basement. I sm thinking more of english country estate - i also find the circular table in dining room odd. Such a small table in a huge room. There are such beautiful design pieces for dinjng tables it seems strange he opted for something so boring.

Interesting to see that pantry wall as a division keeping the kitchen slightly separate. A nudge away from complete open concept. I wonder if that's the next 'thing'. Up with the walls!! lol

[@Thejoyofdecorating]

Just breathtaking!! Wow.

[@callalily5952]

Beautiful and at the same time practical, absolutely very well thought layout. The dining room is a hit! The pantry and the kitchen itself. Very talented designer…

Wondering what the feedback about the kitchen being separate has been? In our province it’s not typical but our house is set up this way. I love it but a lot of people don’t, would prefer more open concept.

[@pamjamas]

Absolutely beautiful.

My favourite is you can play at the pool table while waiting for the laundry.

When can I move in. Love that library room and the balustrade and walkway between the two areas upstairs. For me, for the perfect home you need, a wow, an offering of different places to sit, natural light, perfect lighting, quality finishes, texture, stone and this one has it all.

Does the house come with a masseuse? 😁

The divider wall between the kitchen and family room is a bad idea - it just seals off the room and makes the kitchen isolated.

Beautiful home, but I’m not a fan of the colour of the furnishings on the main floor nor the wall paper in the living room. The partition wall between the kitchen and family room is not conducive to the way most people live today. I would love to win that home.

[@AwesomeCanadianHomes]

Good luck in the draws.

[@luvinmycurlz]

I'm not a fan of this layout, a bit too segmented for my taste, that partition has to go. I do like some of the finishes.

[@missf4681]

This family room doesnt have a fireplace in the family room, the kitchen is too boxy looking and narrow. You walk right inti the dining room which is terrible . Why would you put a wine fridge in a library is it a library or a bar room? This house isnt half as nice as fall 2019. Now that house was wonderful house. This house looks cheap in comparison.

[@esguerr818]

I love the soft color palette, and the use of different greens around the house. Beautiful and expensive finishes. But that pantry/cupboard divider made me cringe. The dinning room right in the foyer? The scale of the dinning room set is little off, but again, when you entertain, having the kitchen close by is more practical. I think the family room would have better use as dinning room. If you sit on that long couch in library/wet bar, your will stare at the fridges and a very annoying marble island. I feel is not and inviting design. The working spaces look terrible uncomfortable. And the basement maybe was rushed to be done and not really well thought. That backyard thought, it is elegant!

[@DOLEWDREW]

'The dining foyer': a new concept❗ 😂

You can rent the house to a porn production company a few weekends of the year to get that property tax, and maintenance cash flow.

[@Jamsie27531]

Wonderful that the home is raising money for cancer but it’s not decorated in a practical way. Show homes are, in the end, just someone’s fantasy. One has a very limited budget and has to ask manufacturers for donated furnishings. They did a good job in sourcing those (mostly) well chosen pieces. An entry doubling as a dining room says guests and deliveries etc. watching your family eating dinner and smelling food as they enter, not to mention the potential dirty dishes on view. Why is the light fixture in the entry/dining angled oddly? What’s going on with the giant blank screen cutting up the visual space leading to the kitchen? Only three books in a “library” filled with wine? Lovely wallpaper over the fireplace but how long will it last with potential smoke residue from the fire and is it fire proof? There are reasons that fireplaces are surrounded by hard fireproof surfaces. The finishes in the home itself such as the floor tile, light fixtures, faucets etc. are very well chosen with credit going to the home builder. Too many entertaining spaces and not enough practical daily living areas. Laundry room/second kitchen off a living area? Dirty, smelly laundry mixed with food preparation? Glass doors looking into a laundry room does not work, in my opinion. Homes this large with high ceilings that are designed for entertainment can be difficult to live in on a daily basis with giant “public” spaces that sit empty most of the time while the families that live there retreat to a few cozy spaces for comfortable daily living. Literally, a waste of space. Great job staging the home with accessories for showing and photography. A nice home to enjoy visually, which is the job the designer had in creating a show house, but I would not try to imitate it for my own living space as it is quite impractical.

[@nicoleeboo38]

Who are these homes for?? In the US it would cost a fortune in taxes alone... and property taxes each year?? Ooo no

It's for you to sell to a foreign investor after you win. Chinese investors will get the tax breaks.

[@AwesomeCanadianHomes]

You gotta destroy that tiny dining room circle table and those nasty plants with an axe and bring in a 20-foot Medieval feasting table and a statue of a life-size horse. Also tear down that kitchen wall, and fill in the window that looks into a mud room. Also having a condo door as the main entrance is kinda strange for such a large home. Awesome t house though.

[@bxniels0]

I love it! It's a little different, but not being quirky to be quirky. It has architectural details but doesn't suffer from "does anyone actually live in here?" A few are bothered by the dramatic two storied entry/dining. Use the family room as the dining room, then. Strangers might use the entry. Your friends are going to slip in from the back, anyway. It's a lot of house, though. It just needs a couple of retired greyhounds and it will be perfect.
