What a $1 million home looks like in Canada this week - Feb. 10 edition

1057 Queen Street, Orleans, Ont.
This six-bedroom home in the suburbs of Ottawa suburb is offered at $999,000.

The kitchen features an island, perfect for family meals.

From the dining room, you can see through the kitchen and into the family room.

And here’s the view from the family room.

The original decorator might’ve gone a little overboard with the wood.

The master bathroom is also covered in wood, and has a built-in washer/dryer station.

Out back, there’s a large deck and an above-ground pool.

The home sits on 6.82 acres and includes this gorgeous creek.

1942 28 Avenue Southwest, Calgary, Alta.
Our second offering is this modern, luxurious duplex in Calgary. It’s listed at $958,000.

The staircase has a simple, industrial look that compliments the home’s feel.

The kitchen is modern and sleek. It also features a large island and stainless steel appliances.

The home is an open-concept model, as you can see from the seamless family room/kitchen view.

No expense was spared in the master bathroom.

The master bedroom features a large window that lets in ample natural light.

The back of the home is just as sharp as the front, and has a beautiful backyard perfect for the kids.

13 Spencer Ave, Toronto, Ont.
Our third offering this week is this house in Toronto that’s lovingly listed as a “restoration project.” The list price is $999,000.

As you can see from this shot of the living room, the house is currently not livable. A lot of work needs to be done, but for some buyers, that’s just what they’re looking for.

Here’s a view of the home’s second storey. If you’ve got imagination and the budget to back it up, this could be a beautiful home one day.

Another view of the upstairs. This could be an amazing bedroom.

The home does have some fantastic details, like this vintage bannister on the staircase.

Maybe one day you’ll be able to tell your friends you have a finished basement. Today, not so much.

Here’s a look at the back of the home. There’s room to park two cars. With a bit (a lot) of work and a bit (a lot) of money, one day this will be a fabulous home.
