The serious beauty of The Cyrus

Coventry Homes has always prided itself in the family-friendly appeal of their homes, but the effort in making them just as stylish and beautiful as they are functional has always been their biggest strength.
Their award-winning line of showhomes underlines just how seriously the renowned homebuilder takes this responsibility. But its latest Cyrus showhome just may be the best representation of Coventry Homes’ philosophy yet.

The Cyrus is a perennial best-seller for Coventry Homes and is one of its most flexible plans. At the new community of Brenton at Glenridding Ravine, the recently opened showhome gives it a contemporary spin.
From its stunning two-tone kitchen and hidden walk-in pantry to the custom plaster-wall fireplace and ceiling detail, this 2,290-square-foot Cyrus is meant to impress.

You want more wow-factor? Cyrus has it in spades! The open-riser staircase with clear glass panels is sure to make an impression on every showhome visitor, setting a chic, modern vibe in the open concept main floor. The jaw-dropping floor-to-ceiling windows at the back of the home is quite something to behold and nicely complements the custom two-storey fireplace that stretches all the way to the open-to-above ceiling.
“We personally cannot get over the windows and how much light they let in - perfect for sunny summer days and getting the most light out of our long winters!” says Tara Van Horn, Director of Marketing and Design at Coventry Homes.

But besides the modern glam of the showhome is the underlying functionality of its design. The kitchen is sleek and stylish but has a free-flowing floorplan that makes it quite well-adapted to the needs of the busy family. The centre island with extended ledge is particularly convenient for a quick breakfast.

Wall-mounted stainless-steel appliances add to the sleek sensibility of the kitchen. But the amazing number of drawers and cabinetry around it makes sure that homeowners are never lacking in storage space.
The foyer is wide and welcoming, it is adorned with stylish tile floor and set a step down from the rest of the main floor to create a more pleasing visual. Hardwood flooring is featured through the rest of the main floor, matching the cabinetry in the two-tone kitchen to create aesthetic continuity.

The two storey, double front-drive garage single-family home is pretty versatile too and can come with three or four bedrooms upstairs and two-and-a-half or three-and-a-half baths.

The showhome features a very relaxing homeowners’ retreat with an extra spacious bedroom that can easily fit a king-sized bed with more than enough room for extra dressers and nightstands. It also has floor-to-ceiling windows that makes waking up in the morning extra special with tons of sunlight.

Superlatives run out trying to describe the stunning attached master ensuite. It is meant to pamper and seduce with its luxurious finish. The wet room includes a stand-alone soaker tub within its glass-enclosed confines, the twin vanities mirror the contemporary vibe of the home, and the tile flooring gives it an added allure.

Practicality isn’t far behind, as the enormous walk-in closet is connected to the upstairs laundry for added convenience.

Coventry Homes also took the time and effort to develop the showhomes basement to give visitors an idea of the home’s potentials.

“Re-think what you know about basement development. We did!” Van Horn says. “In fact, at Coventry, we have transformed the area once known to be cold and cramped into a space as comfortable and beautiful as the rest of your new home. Introducing Maximum Living® by Coventry Homes – basement house plans that let you maximize your home’s square footage by turning the basement into a liveable place. And why not?”

The multi-awarded builder is always looking for ways to satisfy its clients and their ability to personalize plans to suit the buyer’s lifestyle is a source of pride.

“Whatever stage of life you’re in and whatever your needs are, we are able to customize your home to fit those needs. Whether it’s a revenue suite to allow for additional income, or to accommodate aging parents, this is just one example of how our flexible floorplans can make your home work for you!” Van Horn says.

Coventry Homes also has another Cyrus showhome in Hawks Ridge that puts a whole new spin on the floorplan. “It showcases a different optional layout that includes a main floor bedroom with a full bath,” Van Horn says. “It just emphasizes how utterly flexible this Cyrus plan is.”
