Michelangelo Project Summary

Michelangelo Project – North Gower
Participant: Revision Built

Step inside a home where the past meets the future. Once a drafty 1970s bungalow plagued with aluminum wiring, pest infestations, and staggering heat loss, the Michelangelo Project is now a showcase of what’s possible when craftsmanship meets building science.

This is more than just a renovation – it’s a complete reinvention. Guided by principles of durability, occupant health, and energy efficiency, Revision Built stripped the home back to its bones and rebuilt it to exceed modern performance standards. Behind the sleek finishes lies a “Perfect Wall” assembly with four control layers, a fully excavated, waterproofed and insulated foundation, a ‘hot’ double roof system, continuous exterior insulation, triple-glazed windows, and a fully electrified HVAC system. And more.

Registered with NRCan as a Net Zero Ready Renovation case study and monitored by Homesol Building Solutions, this home is both a showcase of sustainable design and a move-in-ready opportunity for the discerning buyer, who refuses to compromise. Situated on a wonderful property in a private setting 18 minutes south of the 416/417 interchange, it is well worth the drive to take it all in.

During GOHBA’s Reno Tour, you’ll have the rare chance to experience this transformation up close. Feel the difference in air quality. Hear the quiet. See the details that make this home built to last for generations.
