Quinn’s Pointe & Harmony model homes

There are 11 Quinn’s Pointe & Harmony model homes to see at Minto’s Barrhaven sales centre. A mix of single-family homes and towns, the model homes and sales centre serve Minto’s two communities in the area: Quinn’s Pointe and Harmony.

Quinn’s Pointe is a master-planned community that will ultimately see about 2,000 homes. Harmony was initially planned to be 238 homes, but that will increase as new land is developed.

We toured the model townhomes when they opened in 2020 (the singles opened in 2021) You can read about the tour here, but please note the Canal model in the tour is no longer open.

Here’s what you’ll see when you visit Quinn’s Pointe & Harmony model homes.

Brighton

The open-concept design of the three-storey, single-family Brighton is designed with growing families in mind.

The family room of the 2,378-square-foot Brighton anchors the ground level and leads directly to the backyard. The second floor, which is the heart of the home, features Hunter Green cabinetry, walnut upper cabinets and a soft white quartz countertop in the kitchen, a laid-back vibe in the living room, a dining area, and a den with a reading corner.

The third floor offers two bedrooms, including a hotel-inspired primary bedroom with a walk-in closet and an elegant ensuite.

Another in Minto’s new lineup of three-storey, single-family homes, the 2,354-square-foor Astoria model features a traditional, Craftsman-inspired exterior with board and batten siding and an interior that blends a traditional theme with contemporary simplicity featuring neutral tones and occasional earthy greens.

The main floor’s foyer leads to a family room with a patio door opening to the rear yard. Natural wood tones and a dry bar cabinet enhance the relaxing family room.

The second storey features a two-tone kitchen with light-grey cabinetry and an island in a wood-grain finish. There’s a dining room with a classic oak table and brass light fixture next to the kitchen, a spacious living room with a nine-foot ceiling, and a den with its own window.

On the third floor are two children’s bedrooms and a primary bedroom with symmetrical windows on either side of the bed and a roomy walk-in closet.

The 1,700-square-foot Kinghurst is a single-family home with three bedrooms on a 30-foot lot. The model was designed with young homebuyers in mind and features teal and fuschia accents, geometric shapes and vintage elements for a relaxing and almost retro vibe.

The open-concept main floor, which includes a den, has two-toned kitchen cabinets, a linear fireplace in the great room and distressed laminate flooring with a washed white tone. A Flex Plan option allows the den and great room to be separated with a dividing wall.

Upstairs, there’s red oak flooring, an oversized window in the front bedroom, which has been outfitted as an office in the model home, and an ensuite bathroom that repeats design features elsewhere in the home.

The four-bedroom Clairmont single with 2,177 square feet features a traditional layout and modern design touches, with a convertible loft space on the second floor.

On the ground level, there are nine-foot ceilings. The model has a gourmet chef’s kitchen and the walls of the dining room have been removed to create a large open-concept space. The fireplace in the great room is finished with whitewashed porcelain tile planks with a woody look.

The second storey has a large loft that can be converted into a fourth bedroom, and the master bedroom with its four-piece ensuite is on the opposite side of the loft for privacy.

The 1,786-sqaure-foot Laguna model home features three bedrooms, a second-floor laundry and a generous family room in the basement.

It also switches up the floorplan to stretch the dining and living room across the back of the home, with access to the backyard from patio doors in the living room. The roomy, U-shaped kitchen includes a peninsula that acts like an island for convenient entertaining and loads of storage and counterspace.

Tahoe End

The Tahoe End with 2,084 square feet and its optional fourth bedroom is the largest of the four executive townhome models at Barrhaven.

Extra windows in the end unit mean more natural light, helping to showcase the model’s rustic vibe, including earth tones, a textured brick backsplash, a barnboard coffee table and a live-edge dining table.

ADVERTISEMENT
The high-gloss white kitchen cupboards and glass pendants balance the rustic flair with a touch of modern sleekness.

The Tahoe End is very much a family home, with a breakfast nook, a formal dining room and a mudroom for busy families.

Haven

The 1,768 square feet Haven is an interior unit but with its open-concept main floor and three bedrooms feels roomy and bright.

ADVERTISEMENT
Vibrant colours, geometric shapes and comic book artwork make the on-trend, chic model one that’s been decorated for a couple without children.

The kitchen features upper flat-panelled cabinets in high-gloss black and light fixtures also in black. Upstairs, geometric shapes in the powder room and master ensuite tile add a lighthearted element.

The two secondary rooms are decorated as a guest bedroom and a home office, underscoring the couple the designers had in mind. The basement family room maximizes the home’s relaxation space.

Monterey End

The three-bedroom, 1,918-square-foot Monterrey End is airy and bright, thanks to the open-concept layout and the extra windows in both the dining room and powder room.

Designed with a downsizing couple in mind, the transitional styling features warm tones, clean lines with finishes that blend traditional choices in tiles, cabinetry, hardwood and carpeting with a colour scheme that showcases warm golds and creams with pale greys.

The master suite is roomy and, like the Haven, the two secondary rooms are decorated as a guest bedroom and a home office.

The basement family room feels like a main-floor space with ample room, loads of natural light and the optional powder room.
