Balaclava Street – A Luxury Full Home Renovation in Vancouver’s Southlands
West Coast meets Scandinavian style in this 2050 square-foot detached house. Built in 1988, we performed a comprehensive home renovation, transforming the property both inside and out to create a masterpiece of modern living.
The home renovations included creating a gourmet kitchen, modernized with steel appliances and finishes that incorporated handsome steel and wood. We transformed the bathrooms and incorporated energy-efficient upgrades to doors and windows, enhancing comfort and reducing long-term utility costs. Outside, we created a beautiful and entertaining space by fencing the yard and incorporating landscaping elements to increase outdoor livability. A stunning wood deck, complete with a hot hub, completed Balaclava’s evolution into a modern sanctuary, perfect for entertaining or stealing away quiet moments with family.
