In this week's episode, we take you on a tour of a unique home located in the old airport district, Dakota Breeze.
This four-room BTO boasts a size of 1,001 square feet and features two bedrooms and two baths. No less than $85,000 was invested in renovations earlier this year, completely transforming the space.
The journey begins at the entryway, where you'll step into a spacious lobby exuding cosiness and warmth. Dark walnut-toned cabinetry and rugged mismatched tiles set the tone for the entire home.
Homes like this are as much about the property underneath as the design on top. The right layout, block and tenure make renovations like these possible, or much harder to achieve later.
That's often where we help readers: evaluating the property first, before committing to a big purchase.
Over time, that's also why we decided to work with agents who shared the same data-driven and advisory-led approach behind our editorial, consultants who could help readers think through decisions more objectively, rather than simply push transactions.
Today, the team has worked with more than 2,000 clients across over $5B in property transactions.
Originally the living room, a cleverly erected wall now creates a private lobby complete with a rectangular glass strip for natural light.
Moving on to the living room, which was once a bedroom but has been cleverly transformed into a lounge space. It's furnished simply with a coffee table, serving as an additional worktop.
The flooring in this area features beautiful travertine that extends into the kitchen.
Adjacent to the living room is a dining area with an eight-seater dining set, perfect for hosting gatherings. Throughout the home, you'll notice wabi-sabi elements, including lime wash finishes on the walls and rugged mismatched floor tiles.
Next, we find the owner's coffee nook, complete with display shelving showcasing unique pottery pieces and the famed travertine material. This coffee nook serves as a visual statement on its own.
The kitchen boasts neutral colours with a switch to darker walnut tones, designed for a homeowner who loves to cook. A travertine countertop and backsplash are illuminated by LED fixtures. The kitchen layout follows a single-wall design.
There's also a utility yard tucked behind glass bi-fold doors, allowing light to flow while maintaining separation of space.
Moving on, we discover a gaming and study room with playful and colourful furnishings. All the furniture in this room is modular, allowing it to be converted into a guest bedroom if needed.
Finally, the master bedroom features an arch ceiling with a grey lime wash finish, creating an intimate and welcoming atmosphere. The en-suite master bath features travertine fittings, an organic mirror, and glossy beach tiles.

Behind a concealed door, you'll find a walk-in wardrobe and vanity area, providing ample storage space to keep the main rest areas clean and tidy.
