The Waverley: Where Coastal Style Meets Multi-Generational Living

The Waverley Model Home is an impressive display of efficient design in the largest floorplan featured in our 36’ collection of Single Family Homes. The home was designed by the Minto design team, in collaboration with Ottawa’s talented KISS Design Group.

With over 2650 sq. ft., the Waverley comes standard with a double-car garage, four bedrooms, and two-and-half bathrooms. Flex Plan options are available to add a guest suite on the main floor, an extra bedroom on the second floor, and two more bathrooms to accommodate multi-generational living. The new Model Home – located in Avalon, Orléans – was designed with the alternative guest suite layout to inspire large households and growing families. Elevation C was chosen for the exterior, embracing the rustic look of stone and brick, while a simple yet elegant porch greets you at the front door.

The Waverley Model Home welcomes homebuyers with a relaxed approach to west coast transitional style, as wide-plank white oak flooring sets the stage for a laidback interior. Coastal influences are present throughout the home, with creams and whites punctuated by soft shades of grey and multiple layers of blue.

Main Floor

Sophisticated ceramic tiling wows you as you enter the foyer, and the same tile continues into the nearby powder room. Moving towards the dining room, you can’t help but be drawn to the impressive staircase – its timeless painted spindles, along with the stained handrails and posts, perfectly complement the shift to the light hardwood floor. The open alcove offers a unique view of the second floor above.

Across the hall is the den, which was changed to the optional guest suite Flex Plan in this model home, offering a main floor bedroom with a beautiful three-piece bathroom. Beyond the dining room is the great room that transitions smoothly to the kitchen – both spaces feature 10’ ceilings to enhance the open-concept feel of each room. The great room is warmed by a traditional fireplace that includes a floor-to-ceiling tile surround. The space is graced by a profusion of light from the large rear window, and the furnishings play up the relaxed yet modern personality of the home.

The gourmet kitchen offers a pleasant combination of painted cabinetry, blending seamlessly with light-coloured hardwood flooring. Beautiful quartz countertops are featured in warm and light tones to add brightness to the room, and the island with breakfast bar is the perfect place for a coffee in the morning. A gorgeous geometric marble backsplash, extended behind open shelving and the decorative hood fan, creates a subtle parallel between the kitchen and the fireplace in the open family room.

Second Floor

Moving upstairs, you’re treated to three additional bedrooms as well as the Waverley’s primary suite. Two of the secondary bedrooms are furnished as kids’ rooms, while the third is completed as a combined home office and study space. The main bathroom features white painted vanity in white to further the contemporary aesthetic of the home.

The primary bedroom has a grand entrance, up two steps and behind double doors, opening to reveal an at-home oasis with a large walk-in closet and spa-like ensuite. The primary ensuite is a place of rejuvenation, offering a walk-in shower, soaker tub and an optional double-sink vanity finished in warm wood and complemented by a feature tile wall.

Basement

Make your way back downstairs and head to the basement where the family can enjoy movies and gaming – or maybe it’s your quiet escape from the hustle and bustle of a full household! The Waverley Model Home showcases the additional three-piece bathroom Flex Plan option in the basement, while three lookout windows add plenty of natural light to the room.

The Waverley Model Home is adorned with decorative lighting throughout and displays an eclectic mix of champagne and stainless finishes, canvas, beads and an array of shapes suggestive of a coastal-inspired lifestyle. The home is a remarkable example of what a home designed for multi-generational living can look like. “It provides enough space to live, work and play,” says Donna Correy, Lead Designer of the KISS Design Group, “all while keeping things minimal. Bedrooms aren’t crowded, and there isn’t a single spot where furnishings create clutter or compromise mobility in any way.”
