Exclusive Community Now Taking Shape At Windrose Valley in Collingwood

COLLINGWOOD, ON, CANADA, April 15, 2011 (Press-News.org) Homebuyers searching for the perfect place to build and builders looking for a great potential return are finding a gem in Windrose Valley, a development of 43 large-scale lots nestled at the foot of the Osler Bluffs, one of Collingwood's most natural settings.

"We're generating strong interest from great area builders who recognize the value of this prime location and are coming up with innovative design concepts to match the uniqueness of the lots," says Andres Paara, a Broker with Lush Realty Inc, marketer of the community which is being developed by Osler Bluff Estates Inc. "Whereas the onus used to be on consumers to find their own designer, now there will be highly regarded custom home builders on site helping to spearhead development moving forward."

One of the first builders on site is Stone Custom Homes, a residential design/build construction company based in Collingwood and headed up by Gordon Stone (M.A.A.).

"Windrose Valley offers a fantastic array of possibilities for both structure and design style," says Stone. "The proximity to ski, golf, equestrian and town facilities brings a unique flavor to the neighbourhood, and the large lot sizes offer limitless view potential, giving us the opportunity to design homes tailored to the unique desires of each buyer."

Stone Custom Homes currently offers five distinctive home designs at Windrose Valley, including the first model home which will be ready for viewing this spring.

They include:
The Portland, a contemporary design at the end of a cul-de-sac priced at $2.225 million;
The Oak, a 4,000-square-foot post and beam home on a 2.02-acre lot for $1.65 million;
The Breckenridge, currently under construction as the model home and priced at $1.295 million;
The Aspen, a chalet-style home featuring more than 3,500 square feet of living space for $995,000;
and, The Cascade at $875,000, a gorgeous four-bedroom with carriage-style garage.

The remaining lots at Windrose Valley are building permit ready and the roads are municipally owned and serviced. With frontages ranging from 132.5 to 285 feet and depths from 259 to 437 feet, lots are priced from $175,000 to $425,000. In addition to its meandering parkland, walking trails and scenic streams, Windrose Valley offers close proximity to nearby recreational facilities and the shops of downtown Collingwood, and will feature shared facilities managed by a homeowners association, including two tennis courts, a volleyball court and two horseshoe pitches. Every lot purchaser will also receive a social membership to OslerBrook Golf and Country Club, the only private, member-owned club in the Georgian Bay area.
