Construction Update: Pebble Creek and Summervale
Summervale in Bowmanville

The popularity for townhomes and semi detached units in the Greater Toronto Area has accelerated the number of housing developments Falconcrest Homes is working on. Here is a construction update on two of our latest communities: Pebble Creek and Summervale.

Pebble Creek

Located in the charming community of Woodbridge, Ontario, Pebble Creek is a new housing plan in the earliest stages of development. The site is currently fully serviced, and the construction of homes has not begun. Upon completion, the community will feature 59 townhomes and 4 semi-detached units in a naturally forested area. Each unit will be finished with heritage style stone and brick exteriors, and a luxurious interior finish. The new community will also feature a park that will be exclusive to its residents, and the naturally forested location will create a quiet, shaded escape from the busy, everyday city life.

Summervale

Summervale is a new development that will feature elegant homes in the community of Bowmanville, Ontario, just east of Toronto. Construction on these homes started on May 1st, and the plans are well underway for the development of the land. The site will feature 43 townhomes, semi and detached homes, each with elegant exterior finishes and meticulously planned architectural designs. Located very close to schools, walking trails, parks, and shopping, the community will be a family friendly neighbourhood. For commuting, the location is ideal, as it is near highway 2 and the 401, making access to the city effortless. This development is currently in phase I, and Phase II is tentatively planned for early 2018.

Regardless of whether you are a first time home buyer, or are searching for a new oasis to call your own, these two communities are only some of the examples of the many communities Falconcrest Homes is proud to provide to the housing market.

Fortunately, if you live in or near Woodbridge, Newmarket or Bowmanville Ontario, there are many wonderful activities, events and adventures to fill your staycation week, regardless of your age and interests.

Mulock Vistas Townhomes in Newmarket

Finding the perfect neighbourhood that has the services and amenities your family needs is as important as finding the perfect home. When researching and comparing neighbourhoods, having a list of all of the things you will need and want nearby, along with considering your lifestyle, will help you narrow your search in finding the perfect one. It will also assist in finding a community that will be sustainable and contribute to future home resale values.

Here are just a few points to consider when choosing and comparing communities.

Shopping, Dining & Entertainment

For commuters, having amenities close by to home can be a crucial feature. If you have to spend an hour on the road, you do not want to spend extra time in the car when you decided to stop out for dinner or a movie or groceries.

When looking at neighbourhoods, look for a variety of shopping and dining options along with looking for new businesses opening and investing in your community.  All of these things are signs of a sustainable and healthy neighbourhood.

The Residences at Pebble Creek – The Ravine
The Residences at Pebble Creek in WoodbridgeLeave a comment

The Residences at Pebble Creek - Rendering  

I’m Erin, and my husband is Dan. I am a law clerk and Dan works in telecommunications in the downtown core. Dan and I are newlyweds and currently renting a single bedroom condominium. The condo is more suited for bachelor living and we need more space for ourselves. Pricing on new downtown locations was outside of our budget so we expanded our search to include the suburbs and Vaughan.

While researching communities in the Woodbridge area I found The Residences at Pebble Creek by Falconcrest Homes. As I researched the area, I was delighted to see that it was set in a naturally forested area and was only moments away from Woodbridge Village. Keeping our commute to the office easy and convenient will be a breeze with the planned expansion of the TTC subway line to Vaughan and the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre Station. Dan and I visited the sales centre at Pebble Creek and met with Mauro and Jenny of Intercity Realty and looked at the executive townhomes that made up this new exclusive community. Mauro showed us the plans for each unit and helped us find the best fit for our needs. The Ravine was a perfect fit. It is an end unit that offers 2121 square feet of living space (elev. A), three bedrooms, 2 ½ bathrooms with an option to have the basement finished and a 3rd full bathroom added. Pebble Creek also offers a large variety of optional upgrades to personalize our new home.
