Current Projects:

Upcoming: 4.5km Lakefront Project

We are pleased to announce an exciting new project—our acquisition of one of the largest undeveloped lakefront parcels in Eastern Ontario, with 15,000 feet of frontage. This incredible property goes from the left to the right of this image, and is situated on one of the Ottawa region's largest lakes. This pristine forested parcel overlooks crown land with complete privacy. Several planned estate-sized family compounds feature secluded and forested bays.

Contemporary Lake House – 7,500+ sq ft

This contemporary lake house is a collaboration between our team at Centennial and +VG Architects. The design features expansive spaces, clean lines, and the use of natural materials throughout. A distinctive elevated glass bridge houses a cozy library alcove, perfect for morning coffee, and leads to the owner's private bedroom building.

The lower level is dedicated to entertainment and relaxation. The Great Room offers stunning views of the lake, while a luxurious, resort-sized spa elevates the experience. The 2000sq ft. hotel-like spa includes a fireplace lounge with serene forest views along with spacious private areas for steam/aromatherapy, sauna with forest and a massive shower room.

 

5 bedrooms / 4 bath / Muskoka Room, Entertainment, Spa & more!

Award Winner: Muskoka Off-Grid

This custom solar-powered cottage is one of several designed and built by our team over decades of luxury cottage projects. This is a project we are immensely proud of, having been selected by the Ottawa Citizen as the "Best Place Anywhere." This cottage featured no compromises, with stone that was hand-selected from four local quarries to maintain consistency with the surrounding landscape, a 33-foot-high interior fireplace, hemlock flooring manufactured from Ontario old-growth logs, custom-made lighting designed with the client's desired dragonfly motif, a bespoke kitchen, all gas appliances, and a stunning Muskoka room utilizing reclaimed Ontario barn wood overlooking the lake.

 

We view each project as an extension of the people who live in them today, or those who will live in them tomorrow. Planning plays an important part, as does the construction period and the overall long-term management of the structure once it’s completed. Our strength lies in the entire process, and we are dedicated to turning visions into reality.
