Photos: 2016 CHEO Dream Home


A look around inside the 2016 CHEO Dream Home.


  • Front: Although based on Minto’s Okanagan model, the dream home has been customized and designed to take full advantage of the preserved Mahogany Creek greenspace that runs alongside the lot on one side (on the other is the 2014 dream home). Clad in brick and stone, with charcoal and cedar-look siding accents, the modern elevation returns after it proved popular on last year’s home. Darren Brown/Postmedia


  • Floor plan: Floor plan of the 2016 CHEO Dream Home, a four-bedroom home with a walkout basement in the Mahogany community in Manotick. The home is based on Minto’s Okanagan model and features more than 4,070 square feet of finished living space. -/-


  • Staircase: A key feature is the curved staircase that spans all three floors. Pulled away from the wall and with open risers and oak treads supported by matte black stringers mimicking a wrought iron look, it provides a sculptural effect in the centre of the home. ‘For me, the staircase is always a pretty big feature in the dream homes,’ says designer Donna Correy. ‘If it can become a great feature, it’s one of the first ones I look to, to dressing up.’ Dressing this one up meant rearranging the mud room and back hall to create enough space for it. Darren Brown/Postmedia


  • Piano room: A den off the foyer lost its walls, creating the perfect home for a grand piano. ‘The home office really is moving away from being a special room that you go to where your desktop is all hooked up,’ says designer Donna Correy. ‘People are using their iPads, their tablets, their iPhones. They want to be able to use them anywhere.’ Changing the room’s function creates a ‘wow’ and speaks to a modern open-concept interior as soon as you walk in the front door. Darren Brown/Postmedia


  • Neutrals put the emphasis on the view outside, as oversized windows in both the living and dining room look out over the creek and greenspace that runs along the property. Seven-inch-wide maple plank hardwood with a matte finish (courtesy of Barwood Flooring and Mirage Flooring) creates a rustic feel, yet the airiness is anchored by plenty of black accents in the furnishings. Darren Brown/Postmedia


  • Dining chandelier: Inspired by a designer's jewelry concepts, the Theta pendant by Hubbardton Forge, available through Living Lighting, mixes textured steel, polished aluminum and LED technology for a modern industrial sculptural look over the dining room table. Darren Brown/Postmedia

  • Kitchen, overall: The European-inspired kitchen features appliances that are all fully integrated and flat-panelled cabinets for a clean look. A mix of finishes – matte black and glossy white laminate and rift-cut white oak – are tied together with a marble-look quartz that’s used on both counters and backsplash. Keeping upper cabinets low brings the 10-foot ceilings ‘down to more human size,’ says Daniel Gauthier of Potvin. Darren Brown/Postmedia

  • Island: The island was the starting point for the kitchen. Bookending it with butcher block oak sections allowed Daniel Gauthier of Potvin to maximize the island’s footprint without having to use a countertop with a seam. He also carried the quartz countertop over the front and onto the drawer faces for an unusual waterfall effect. Darren Brown/Postmedia


  • Eating area: An amoeba-shaped plaster bulkhead is suspended about two inches from the ceiling above the kitchen table. Backlit with LED lighting ‘you get this really nice spilling of light across the ceiling,’ says designer Donna Correy. In an example of the modern retro esthetic of the home, a glass-topped table is supported by a chunky distressed wood frame and black-and-white chairs reminiscent of the 1960s. The light fixture (Aura Pendant by Hubbardton Forge, available through Living Lighting) adds an industrial edge. Darren Brown/Postmedia

  • Play room: The play room offers lots of choices for kids, from a climbing wall by Rock Werx to a music stage, their own TV and a funky circular hanging acrylic chair beside a round cut-out looking to the pool table next door and framed with a circular bookcase. Darren Brown/Postmedia

  • Pool table: The basement is all about fun, including a pool table that separates the kids’ area from the grownup space. Darren Brown/Postmedia


  • Wet bar: A repeat of the pantry cabinetry, the matte black finish in the wet bar is paired with a high-gloss one for an edgy rustic feel. A hanging wine rack made from the same rough-sawn oak veneer as the home theatre wall was inspired by the modern industrial look and black accents sought throughout the home. Darren Brown/Postmedia

  • Wet bar: An unusual choice for kitchen cabinetry, the pantry is a matte black with a chalkboard-like finish with gunstock metal hardware. It serves to visually separate the formal and informal living areas without being obtrusive, while also anchoring the space. Darren Brown/Postmedia


  • Boy’s room: The boy’s room is the most obvious example of the black-and-white and retro graphic themes found throughout the home. Darren Brown/Postmedia

  • Home theatre: A new product for Potvin, a rough-sawn oak veneer gives a rustic look to the home theatre wall. ‘It’s like reconstituted barn wood, almost,’ says Potvin’s Daniel Gauthier. A 130-inch projection screen and Dolby Atmos surround sound system make for a much more immersive experience, says Audioshop’s Brad Boyle. Darren Brown/Postmedia

  • Upstairs hallway: The hardwood continues throughout the second floor, where the hallway is highlighted by another Hubbardton Forge light fixture, the Treble Pendant, which continues the geometric theme of the home. A feature wall of painted wood planks (supplied by Alexandria Moulding) provides a subtle backdrop in the stairwell that also adds texture. Darren Brown/Postmedia

  • Master bedroom: The master suite is one of the more glamorous rooms in the home, with its double-door entry, metallic wallpaper, starburst chandelier and layers of texture. ‘There’s a sense of glamour, yet it’s a relaxed glamour,’ notes associate designer Tracey Woodman, as evidenced by the retro vibe in the furnishings.

  • Ensuite: The ensuite is a ‘shower experience,’ says designer Donna Correy. The walk-through shower stretches from one end of the room to the other and features double transom windows that flood the space with natural light, ‘an incredible rainshower system on the ceiling’ where you can dial the kind of rain you want from a mist to a storm, and a glass wall that separates the shower from the standalone tub in front of it. Double vanities with waterfall quartz counters offer his-and-hers pampering. Darren Brown/Postmedia
