Contemporary Transitional Residence
Located in the quiet community of Stevensville, The Edinburgh Road Residence represents the second custom home built for these homeowners by DRT Custom Homes & Renovations—a testament to the lasting relationships and trust developed with our clients.

After previously building with DRT in Thorold, the homeowners sought a more peaceful setting where they could enjoy a slower pace of life while still living in a thoughtfully designed, modern home. The result is a light-filled residence that blends elevated architectural design with comfortable family living.

With soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and carefully curated finishes throughout, the home offers a seamless balance between sophistication and everyday comfort.

Client Vision
The homeowners envisioned a residence that would reflect their evolving lifestyle—offering greater tranquility while still providing generous spaces for entertaining family and friends. Having previously worked with DRT, they trusted the team to deliver a home that would combine thoughtful design, exceptional craftsmanship, and timeless materials.

Design Inspiration
Inspired by contemporary estate homes that emphasize openness and natural light, the design incorporates dramatic ceiling heights, expansive windows, and warm natural materials. The open-concept main floor allows living, kitchen, and dining spaces to flow effortlessly together, creating a home that feels both elegant and welcoming.

Unique Features
The residence features a dramatic 14-foot foyer ceiling that creates a grand first impression upon entry, while cathedral ceilings throughout the main living areas enhance the sense of scale and openness.
