This outstanding residential project showcases the complete transformation of a detached family home into a contemporary luxury residence, delivered by JK Design & Build.
Following the demolition of the original property, only the front façade was retained, allowing us to preserve the character of the home while completely rebuilding it from the ground up. The result is a beautifully designed three-storey family residence that combines modern architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, and luxury living.
The project included the construction of new side and rear extensions, a first-floor extension, and a spacious loft conversion, significantly increasing both the living space and the property's value.
Every aspect of the home was carefully considered, from the structural engineering and bespoke joinery to the premium interior finishes. Luxury features include a bespoke designer kitchen, elegant bathrooms, engineered oak flooring, designer lighting, a private cinema room with a bespoke bar, a fully equipped gym, a billiards room, a home office, and two guest suites within the newly created loft.
The home also benefits from modern building technologies, including underfloor heating throughout the ground and first floors, air conditioning, an energy-efficient heat pump, and high-performance insulation to maximise comfort and energy efficiency.
Externally, the property was transformed with professionally designed landscaping, a new driveway, and an elegant outdoor entertaining area featuring a bespoke BBQ terrace with integrated heating.
This project reflects our commitment to delivering exceptional quality, innovative construction solutions, and fully managed luxury residential projects across London.

The front elevation of this home got a makeover with new Marvin Windows and Doors. Originally the home had a single front door with two sidelights. The entire assembly was removed and we installed a Marvin double front door. Going from a builder grade, single door to the Marvin Elevate Swinging French Doors really set this house apart, creating an elegant front entry. A bronze exterior clad was chosen, while the interior wood was stained to match the home’s original trim color.
Two twin casement windows and one single casement window were removed. These were replaced with Marvin Ultimate Casement windows. These Marvin Signature Series windows have an extruded aluminum exterior, and a rich wood interior. Like the front doors, all the new windows were stained to match the existing trim.
The doors and windows were all stained prior to installation. This kept installation time to a minimum, inconveniencing the homeowners as little as possible.
All the windows open quickly and easily with a crank out operation. The windows offer a contemporary option with a flush exterior and narrow jamb.
These windows have a sleek design and narrow jamb which makes them ideal for replacement applications, minimizing the tear-down of existing frames and walls. Their unique wash mode allows access to both sides of glass from inside the home.
The doors and windows have the Marvin Simulated Divided Lite (SDL) grill design which is an energy-efficient way to create the look of authentic divided lites. SDL bars are permanently adhered to both sides of the glass. They are available with or without a spacer bar installed between the glass to create even more depth.
Beyond a fresh, new look these Marvin Windows and Doors have increased the value of this home, and made it more energy efficient. If you are considering replacing windows or doors in your home, contact us today.

For our client in Palos Verdes Peninsula we replaced his pool pump,roof and installed a solar system. Before installing the solar system we replaced his old roof with a brand new roof so he can enjoy his solar for many years without the need to worry about aging of the roof and the need of a new roof in a few years. Since the roof is S-tile we installed composition shingles on the areas under the solar to achieve a “sunk-in” look of the solar panels which is best look for tile roofs in general and provides extra comfort as far as waterproofing. This 11.8 KW DC solar system is set to offset clients bill entirely and provide many years of savings on electric bills as well as increase property value.

Retractable Screens, also known as Roll-up Screens and Vertical Rolling Screens are completely customized to meet the needs of the space.
Easy to see through and completely retractable, exterior Retractable Screens create a cool, comfortable, insect-free environment without sacrificing your view. Designed to provide superior solar protection, they mitigate UV damage, optimize comfort and provide daytime privacy even in windy settings.
Extra sun control can be achieved by increasing thread counts and weave density. Retractable Solar Shades provide energy-efficient sun shading, shelter against bugs and mosquitoes, climate control and rain/wind reduction while allowing outward visibility. Depending on screen fabric selection, our solar shade fabric selections are capable of blocking up to 95% of ultra-violet (UV) rays–saving up to 50% of the energy used to heat and cool homes.
Motorize Retractable Screens provide control at the touch of a button. Somfy Motors allow activation by wall mounted toggle switch or several different types of remote control options. These Retractable Screens will stop at upper and lower limits and are able to stop any where along the travel path on command.
Optional Manual Override features allow for operation in case of power outage for motorized units. Manual Operations are available on most models.
Motorized Retractable Screens equipped with Somfy RTS motors may be upgraded for use in Smart Homes and operated via Smartphone or other Mobile Devices.
Retractable Screens should be retracted when not in use. The screens are raised and housed inside the aluminum housing. All major components of the system are powder coated aluminum for durability, ease of operations, and longevity. All Retractable Screens from Shade & Shutter Systems come with a 5 year Warranty, to include the Somfy Motor.
Retractable Screens offer wind and rain abatement for breezy days. Many of our clients enjoy outdoor patio settings along coastal areas and beach front properties. Those areas also endure regular breezes that can be knocked down with retractable Screens for a more enjoyable experience. Although these screens are not designed for storm protection, winds to 40 mph are easily abated.

This exterior view highlights the seamless integration of a custom second floor addition designed and built by Cedarstone Group Inc. for this full-home transformation in Toronto. The goal was to dramatically increase living space while ensuring the new storey felt architecturally intentional, not like an afterthought.
The updated façade features clean modern lines, balanced proportions, and carefully selected exterior finishes that complement the original structure while elevating the home’s curb appeal. New high-performance windows were installed throughout, improving natural light, energy efficiency, and overall comfort.
From a construction standpoint, this project required structural reinforcement, precise framing, and detailed exterior coordination to ensure long-term durability and visual cohesion. The result is a home that looks purpose-built, modern, and refined; all while meeting Toronto zoning and building code requirements.
This image represents what Cedarstone does best: complex second-storey additions and whole-home renovations that increase square footage, functionality, and long-term property value without compromising design.
If you’re considering a second floor addition or a complete home exterior renovation in Toronto, this project shows how thoughtful planning and expert execution can completely transform a home.
