Townhome Living: Single-Homebuyers Have Great Options

In a market that can sometimes seem uncertain, townhomes continue to be a great investment for first-time and single homebuyers, offering affordable and innovative living options. And townhome living is particularly popular in Calgary and Airdrie this year, with the Calgary Herald reporting that purchases in this market are up for 2015.

We launched two new townhome developments this year, Newport in Airdrie and Ashbury in Calgary. These new developments offer homebuyers affordable living options that don’t spare on style, and with new customizable options for both, there’s a lot of reason to love condo life.

NEWPORT

This new development is located in Canals Landing, Airdrie. In the heart of Airdrie’s southwest, Newport offers a complete community that harmonizes picturesque big sky living with quick access to conveniences – creating a perfect pairing for all walks of life.

Our Newport townhomes offer distinctive, coastal style, featuring one-and three-bedroom plans, ranging in size from 750 square feet to 1,892 square feet. The best part of all, they start in the low $180s! The Newport has 79 units, including 20 one-storey Garden townhomes, 20 two-storey Courtyard townhomes, 24 three-storey Park townhomes and 15 three-storey townhomes, all with either a parking pad or garage.

ASHBURY

This development is located in Saddlestone of Calgary. Ashbury is a beautiful, family-friendly master-planned community filled with ponds, playgrounds, walking trails and schools. It is a place where the streets transform into gathering places, and where the houses transform into homes. It is a place where the home of your dream is well within reach.

The Ashbury development consists of 24 townhomes in three different styles to meet differing budgets and lifestyles: Garden, Courtyard and Pond designs, starting in the $220s. The architecture and design of these townhomes combine traditional features with contemporary embellishments. The selection process is also interactive and fun for homebuyers because of the new customizing options we’re providing for Ashbury.
