Kit House

Introduction

West Coast Modern presents the Kit House, a fully upcycled mid-century modern in scenic Lynn Valley, North Vancouver.

The recipe for stunning mid-century renovations is part love-at-first-sight and part grit – and this is exactly the story of the Kit House. The original condition 1968 house was once heavy with awkward alterations and likely slated for demolition. Saved from imminent havoc by a young fashion couple who saw the great bones in it, the house has been updated to the studs and turned into what we believe as one of the brightest mid-century home renovations of the year. With 360 degrees of greenery out every window, open concept living, and a complete redesign that’s gracing the pages of the world’s top design publications, the Kit House is now ready for its next custodians.

"We were lucky enough to find this original condition mid-century modern. And we just knew the minute we walked in that this house had potential. Basically we had to do everything inside and out and we’ve taken on a huge project that really was just an adventure for us.”

"We hope this house and our renovation inspires others to take on a mid-century home. It’s such a shame for them to get torn down. We were just two people who like the space and thought we could do something with it. The outcome is pretty spectacular.”
