The Place

A charming — and very colourful — three-bed, two-bath end unit townhome in Huron Heights.

The Details

A pink entryway, a purple living room, seafoam turquoise cabinets and a devilishly red primary suite — you might think that on paper this all might not work, but somehow all these colour combinations come together to create a home that is as quirky and charming as it is colourful.

This three-bed, two-bath townhouse is an end unit and is tucked away in a quiet complex. The main level of this vibrant townhouse features a number of things that are sure to catch your eye. The kitchen is particularly noteworthy, featuring contrasting high-end black stainless appliances and ample cabinet space (painted like a 1950s Telecaster guitar), including two pantries. The adjacent dining space (painted with a grey-blue scheme that is muted, by comparison) is ideal for hosting guests, and the spacious living room offers plenty of space for furniture, and provides sliding door access to the backyard. A half bath rounds out the main level.

The unique character of this townhouse is undoubtedly centred on its colourful paint scheme. Turquoise cabinets and a custom tile backsplash make the kitchen a notable (and unmissable) part of the house, while the living room is painted in dual shades of purple — lilac walls, violet trim. The foyer goes with a pink paint scheme that, comparatively, seems to offer a gentle introduction to the colours to come. The half-bath is dark purple. Colour maximalism is very much the name of the game here.

The upper level of this kaleidoscopic unit boasts three generously sized bedrooms, all with ample closet space for residents. The updated bathroom is equally impressive, featuring a clawfoot tub — great for long baths. The clawfoot tub fits in a tiled bath nook that has built-in shelving (although there’s no overhead shower installed). The primary bedroom is particularly noteworthy, not only for its sultry red walls, but for its double closet with upgraded doors and its healthy square footage. The secondary suites are no less vibrant, working in turquoise and purple colour schemes that echo the downstairs colours, and which would be great for young kids.

The basement of this unit has been partially finished, with the finished portion including tile floors and built-in cabinets. The space might be perfect for a home studio, home office or a downstairs den. (It also dispenses with the colours, going with far more neutral tones.) It also has a small unfinished portion, as well as laundry facilities in the basement. The unit also has a small fenced-in backyard (accessed through the living room) with room for patio furniture, and built-in planter boxes in which to start a decent-sized garden.
