If you are a fan of modern architecture and have wanted your abode to reflect your tastes, until recently unless you had an architect custom design you a home, just about your only choice was to go for a condo, as just about every house and townhouse development in the GTA was designed with predominating faux Victorian features. Now however, you have another option as a whole street of single family homes designed in a modern architectural style is on offer at Orchard Ridge Homes' Crafthouse, Canada's first, all single family modern home development. Designed by Symbolics Architecture + Design, Crafthouse will bring 20 two-storey homes to the Bayview and Finch neighbourhood in North York.

Starting at $1.8 million, these spacious, open-concept family homes come as large as 5,500 square-feet, featuring finished lower levels and integrated two-car garages. Crafthouse comes in a variety of layouts, with nine different floorplans and eleven different elevations to choose from.

Landscape work around the site is currently under way in preparation of Crafthouse's upcoming public opening. Registrants still have one last chance to take advantage of priority lot and home selection, by visiting the fully-decorated model homes this weekend - your final opportunity to preview the Crafthouse model homes before the project is launched to the general public.
