New Kemptville Meadows Model Home Combines Quality With Common Sense, Affordable Upgrades

KEMPTVILLE, ON, August 08, 2012 (Press-News.org) LA Group has announced the opening of its model home at Kemptville Meadows, a community of competitively priced homes that combines a tranquil country setting with the convenience of being centrally located - less than 45 minutes from either Ottawa to the north or Brockville to the south.

The beautiful, fully decorated model home is the 1299 square foot Juniper floor plan with a western exposure that overlooks the University of Guelph, Kemptville Campus teaching gardens. The main level features a den, powder room, kitchen, dining room and living room that opens onto a deck. The second level includes a master bedroom with deck, a second bedroom, a full bathroom and a mechanical room with space for a washer and dryer. The model home features upgrades which include hardwood floors on the main level; upgraded kitchen cabinetry and granite countertops; an electric fireplace; upgraded lighting; upgraded wall colours on both levels and air conditioning.

"We have received very positive feedback from people who have visited our model home," observes project manager Fred Heller. "They are initially impressed by the affordability of our homes and the fact that they can own a home for less than the price of rent in Ottawa or Kemptville for that matter, with such a small down payment. But when they see the unique lifestyle community that they will be a part of that combines country living with a short drive to the city, they quickly realize that they can have it all here."

Kemptville Meadows consists of 136 stacked townhomes in 17 buildings on a 7 acre landscaped site. There are 8 spacious 2 and 3 bedroom designs to choose from and homes range in size from 1,138 - 1,391 square feet. Prices for these homes start at $219,500 - or at least 30% less than a comparable home in Ottawa, with only a 5% down payment. There are only four homes left in Phase I and sales for Phase II are underway with just 22 units left. Occupancy is scheduled for late summer/early fall.

Bordered by the lush treed grounds of the University of Guelph, Kemptville Campus, the community is surrounded by natural amenities including a 150 km trail that weaves its way around the municipality offering opportunities for hiking, walking, cycling, horseback riding, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling. Residents also have access to the Rideau Canal, a UNESCO World Heritage site and a 202 km (Ottawa to Kingston) boater's paradise.

Beautiful, historic downtown Kemptville is only a short walk away with its eclectic mix of shops and services, including everything from home decor to designer clothing to fine local restaurants. And Kemptville is situated in North Grenville, a thriving municipality that offers its residents an excellent quality of life as evidenced by its new library, a major addition to its hospital, new schools and its own university campus. In addition to its close proximity to the nation's capital by car, Kemptville also has a regular morning and evening bus service to downtown Ottawa that's ideal for commuters.
