Seamless Blend of Old & New

Building a new house within a well-established neighbourhood takes a high level of craftsmanship and artistry to ensure the home has the modern design homeowners want, but also suits the area. Artista Homes thoughtfully created this infill home to incorporate traditional elements of Winnipeg's Old Tuxedo neighbourhood into the exterior, such as the roof design, covered decks, brick facade and picket railings, while inside, the home is a contemporary wonder.

“We created a home that fits nicely in the building lot,” says Frank Cotroneo, co-owner of Artista Homes. “While we wanted the home to fit into the neighbourhood, it was great to see a new home bring excitement to the community. We loved bringing all the elements of this Artista Home to life in Tuxedo.”

The open-concept home has over 4,500 square feet of living space with four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. High-end finishings abound, including hardwood flooring, expansive windows, open-riser solid maple wood stairs, custom built-in shelving and cabinetry, brick accent walls and gorgeous ceramic tile cladding with wood detail around the fireplace.

“We have worked with many of our suppliers and trades for 20 plus years, and once again, it has been fantastic to collaborate with them,” says Cotroneo, who credits their longstanding relationships for many incredible treatments.

From top to bottom, each corner of the home has been carefully considered, from the main floor office and the kitchen's large walk-in pantry to the convenient second-floor laundry room and spa-like ensuite. The dining room boasts 20-foot ceilings, while the lower level has a gym with yoga studio that features natural river stone and birch tree branches. An insulted three-car garage, four-season sunroom and golf green in the yard add to the luxury.
