2130 Hill Drive, North Vancouver CCI Renovations, 604-980-8384 This 23-year-old home was uninspiring, dark and worn out. The strictly interior renovation concentrated on opening up a new gourmet kitchen space to the dining and living rooms. The powder and main bathrooms received new fixtures and finishes, while the master ensuite was completely rebuilt – featuring a walk-in shower with frameless glass enclosure. The rest of the house received much-needed new flooring, paint and millwork, helping to give the home a fresh new look and feel.

The end results have surpassed even their highest expectations. This extraordinary project garnered three Gold Georgie Awards this year, as well as the Canadian Home Builders’ Association’s national SAM award for best kitchen. From the meandering streambed, ponds and waterfalls in the backyard, to the curving S-shaped island in the kitchen, the finished project creates a harmonious feel. The extensive use of natural materials is evident throughout, particularly in the detailed cedar sunroom off the kitchen and the award-winning landscape. This must-see project is an excellent example of what can be achieved with thorough planning and a clear design vision. 5473 Montebre Crescent, West Vancouver JHC Craftsmen Ltd., 604-980-7818 The kitchen of this West Vancouver house, which dates from the 1980s, now features extensive granite and stainless steel and an entirely new stainless-steel appliance package, including Sub-Zero fridge and built-in Dacor oven and microwave. The central focus is the redone island with its stainlesssteel Faber updraft range hood and new five-burner cooktop range. Glass blocks were used in the backsplash to enhance the natural light. Work also includes a refurbished bathroom and downstairs wine bar.
