A showpiece kitchen under coffered ceilings

Marble-look floors, a long island and detailed ceilings set the tone in this stone-and-brick family home.

The kitchen is the showpiece: a long island with a sink, built-in wall ovens and tall white cabinetry, all over glossy marble-look tile. French doors open from the breakfast area to the backyard. Coffered and tray ceilings, crown mouldings and wide dark hardwood give the main-floor rooms real presence, including a bright front den. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a walk-in closet, and the bathroom features a freestanding soaker tub.

Kleinburg's village feel is close at hand, with Longo's for groceries and Woodgate Pines Park for weekend walks. The unfinished lower level is a blank slate for a gym or theatre, and the upper deck is a quiet place to unwind.
