Cooking in tight quarters definitely loses its charm, particularly when several individuals are involved in preparing the dish.
Utilizing both size and clever design can guarantee that preparing dinner becomes a pleasant experience for everyone involved.
Individuals looking for a semi-detached property will find this option within the Acme 18 series. These homes range from 1,486 to 1,574 square feet, developed by Cedarglen Homes.
Currently, it serves as a show home in CreekView. This newly developed southwestern neighborhood in Calgary sits approximately 10 minutes south of the amenity-filled Shawnessy Shopping Centre.
The expansive kitchen at Acme is situated in an elegant L-shape towards the rear of the principal floor. One advantage of this layout is the ample countertop space available for tasks such as chopping, peeling, and seasoning ingredients.
There is ample countertop space along both walls, with an emphasis on the wall at the back. An additional spot for food prep activities is provided by the central island. Altogether, preparing meals or baked goods can make for an enjoyable group activity.
The island provides space for two individuals but doesn’t come with the kitchen sink. It sits beneath a big window that offers a view of the backyard. This setup allows parents to watch their children play outdoors as they clean and dry dishes.
The kitchen appliances are made of stainless steel and come with features such as a refrigerator with French doors and a chimney-style range hood. In the display home, a high-gloss full-height tiled splashback stands out dramatically behind this range hood.
Although numerous open-concept layouts usually blend the kitchen, dining area, and great room into a single communal zone, this particular floor plan distinctly outlines the great room.
A half-wall divides the main dining space from the forward-oriented great room, which lends a greater sense of importance to the latter area.
With dimensions of 10 feet 10 inches by 14 feet 4 inches, the grand living area serves as an inviting and well-lit communal zone.
There is considerable space between the dining area and the kitchen, which allows for adaptability—enabling you to introduce an additional small table whenever needed.
This residence also caters to those who work from home. Opposite the great room, there’s a designated alcove with space for a desk, offering a practical workspace.
If none of the family members work from home, this still caters to the needs of the children in the household when they are completing their schoolwork.
On the second floor, the main bedroom is located towards the rear of the layout, with two additional bedrooms situated next to each other toward the front.
To offer extra sleeping areas, the display home features an expanded basement containing two additional bedrooms.
The main bedroom, measuring 13 feet 1 inch by 10 feet 8 inches, features an en-suite bathroom and a walk-in closet that are connected. This makes weekdays easier when getting ready in the mornings.
The en suite includes a shower tiled up to the ceiling and a double vanity equipped with two sinks under a wide mirror. Ample room is provided between the sinks, allowing both individuals to utilize this area simultaneously without feeling confined.
A laundry room with a front-load washer and dryer is positioned just down the hall from the primary.
Beyond the bedrooms, the basement is also shown with a bathroom and spacious rec area containing a walk-up bar.
