A granite-and-espresso kitchen made for hosting

Dark cabinetry, a big island and double wall ovens anchor a home where the finishes carry through every room.

The kitchen leads: espresso cabinetry to the ceiling, granite counters, a centre island with a wine rack, stainless appliances and double wall ovens. It opens to a family room with a fireplace and coffered ceiling, all over dark hardwood. A curved staircase and a bright front room with a tall window set a grand tone at the entry. A spa-style bathroom pairs a soaker tub with a glass shower.

Out back, a large stone patio and fenced yard are ready for summer barbecues. Bonnie Braes Park and Ingleborough Public School are both close by, so weekday routines stay easy.
