On a beautiful wooded lot in the Mineola East neighbourhood of Port Credit sits this 4,500 sf modern French Chateau. The intricate, yet subtle, detail in the dormers, cast iron accents and rooflines captures the Chateauesque style favoured by the homeowners. The combination of exterior materials, stone, brick and stucco, all in a neutral colour palette, complement the natural surroundings.

The interior architecture is grand – soaring ceilings, a two-storey window and a 14ft ceiling in the master bedroom – while still honouring the functionality and family-friendly layout the homeowners desired.

Transitional style best defines the interior design by Parkyn Design, a combination of the husband’s appreciation for contemporary design and the wife’s love of traditional elegance. Visit www.parkyndesign.com to view images of the interior.
