Considering Kitchen Choices

If a kitchen renovation or redesign is on your list of future projects, give yourself the latitude to consider new ideas that may prove to be truly practical in terms of your budget and your taste. Here are just a few trends identified by popular magazines and websites: 

  • Roll-out cabinetry can provide easy storage and access for modern countertop appliances such as air-fryers. 
  • A refrigerator with a touch sensor that reveals a "sneak-peek" see-through window can reduce energy loss caused by frequently opening the fridge to peruse contents. 
  • With some new smart faucets, you can give verbal commands to heat and measure water with precision for cooking or baking. 
  • A backsplash in retro 50s-style candy colours or a black & white checkerboard pattern can inject a sense of informal playfulness. 
  • Patterned floor tiles and/or countertops in green shades can contribute to a sense of comfort and warmth associated with traditional farmhouses. 
  • Wine refrigerators with zones allow you to adjust temperature and humidity for different varieties simultaneously. Some even have available apps to help you manage your wine inventory.

GTA REALTORS Release March 2025 Stats

Homeownership in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) became more affordable in March 2025 compared to the previous year. On average, both borrowing costs and home prices have declined over the past year, making monthly payments more manageable for households looking to buy a home. “Homeownership has become more affordable over the past 12 months, and we expect further rate cuts this spring. Buyers will also benefit from increased choice, giving them greater negotiating power.
