Entertaining at home in style
Home entertaining made easy with special features like huge islands where everyone can gather, and serveries off the kitchen, to keep the flow of a dinner party the way you want it.
Built for busy families
Today’s families don’t stand still, they make the most of life inside and outside of their new Johnstone Home! So our single-family homes can include features to make family life easier and more enjoyable such as:
- Large mudrooms with built in hooks and cubbies that work to keep a busy family organized, and your foyer clear and free.
- Top floor laundry saves you from having to carry the laundry up and down the stairs.
- Dedicated spaces for desks, or quaint nooks for reading spaces will make a child’s room special.
- Plenty of rooms for your current family size, and a place for guests too.
Maximise your space, minimise the hassle!
Whether it is downsizing or just starting out, you can maximize the living space in the rooms that you will use. Look for new home designs that have a big beautiful master bedroom and ensuite, a generous great room and gourmet kitchen, without extra bedrooms that simply won’t be used.
Whether you’re looking in London or Mount Brydges, take a look at our developments first – you won’t be disappointed. Choose from site-specific bungalows, one floor, 1 ½ storey, and 2 storey homes that incorporate design function, and comfort into your home.
