Timeless architecture. Expansive views. Designed to suit your land and your lifestyle.
If you’re planning to build on an acreage, you’ve likely been dreaming of a home that blends comfort, natural beauty, and practicality. At Winton Homes, our Classic Collection has become one of the most popular choices among landowners—and for good reason.
Whether you're entering a new chapter, building your dream retreat, or creating a home base for generations to come, our Classic designs are built to suit your needs.
Designed for the Landscape
Classic homes are known for their balanced, symmetrical architecture, and often feature Winton’s signature prow and a large vaulted wall of windows. On an open acreage, this design truly shines—maximizing your connection to nature and capturing panoramic views from every angle.
Whether you're overlooking a forest, a lake, or the rolling hills of your rural property, our Classic designs frame the outdoors like art.
Built to Be Comfortable and Low Maintenance
These homes aren’t just beautiful—they’re practical for year-round living. With open-concept interiors, flexible layouts, and energy-efficient building materials, Classic homes offer:
- Minimal exterior upkeep
- High performance for heating and cooling
- Thoughtful indoor-outdoor flow for sundecks, covered porches, and walkout basements
You can customize each floor plan to suit your specific needs—whether that’s aging-in-place accessibility or space for visiting family.
Fits a Variety of Foundations
One reason Classic designs are so well suited for acreages is their foundation flexibility. Most plans can be built on:
- Traditional slab
- Crawlspace
- Daylight basement
- Walkout basement
This means your home can easily adapt to the unique topography of your lot—whether it's flat farmland or sloped forested land.
Real-Life Classics That Stand Out
Browse the full Classic Collection to see the diversity in layouts and sizes. Some standout favourites include:
- Chelan – A simple, classic layout with sloped ceilings and a bright open-concept interior, including a dedicated master with ensuite.
- Sylvan Lake – Designed for sloped lots, this plan features a walk-out basement and a stone-wrapped chimney flanked by windows that frame incredible views.
- Swift Creek – With a soaring two-story great room, wall of windows, and double-ensuite bedrooms opening onto a covered deck, this design blends luxury with livability—plus a discreet one-car garage.
Each plan is customizable, so you're never locked into a layout that doesn't suit your vision.
A Perfect Match for Acreage Living
Winton’s Classic designs offer the perfect balance of form, function, and flexibility—especially for landowners looking to build on rural property. They’re designed to make the most of your views, stand strong through Canadian seasons, and grow with you through life’s next chapter.
