EDITOR’S NOTE 28

ON TO 2021!

To quote the Foo Fighters: “Done! Done! On to the next one!” 2020 sure seemed to take longer, but it’s finally in the rearview mirror.

As ever, the New Year brings new hope, but in this case, it is not unfounded optimism at all. There is already a vaccine that promises to remove the pandemic threat and allow the economy to resume. The new home industry itself has not collapsed as it was feared it would at the onset of the lockdown but has instead enjoyed a surge in demand. Builders and developers are looking to ride this momentum into 2021 and we are here to help you, our dear readers, to fulfill your homeowning dream.

We start off the year with a bang with our cover feature on Coventry Homes and the fantastic flexibility of their new home designs that suit today’s homebuyer needs even more.

Being one of the most successful homegrown builders in Edmonton, Coventry Homes has certainly a good idea of what the local market wants, and the skill and expertise to turn those dreams to reality.

We also offer a take on the newest innovative designs in the new communities of Edmonton, as well as an in-depth look at what life in Sherwood Park has to offer.

We have a lot more such features planned for the coming year, including stories that can enlighten readers on the benefits of buying a condo, or townhome or single-family home in any and all of its forms. We will be telling you where to find the best new community is being developed that can suit your preferred lifestyle. And also, the hottest design trends in interior décor. So, stay tuned.

COVER STORY

COVENTRY HOMES FLEXIBLE HOME DESIGNS FOR BETTER LIVING With Coventry Homes, flexibility isn’t just a buzzword. Functional and flexible home design is at the foundation Coventry’s success, which is achieved by presenting homebuyers the ability to customize any of their floor plans to fit their personal lifestyle.

Since 1976, Coventry Homes has been a leader in the home building industry with their unique approach to adaptable layouts, and unwavering commitment to offering clients superior quality homes matched with outstanding service. The homebuyer experience is rated among the best in the industry, the product is superior in quality and style.

This last year has seen many industries quickly change 8

New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 8–Feb. 5, 2021

processes and adjusting products, and this includes the homebuilding industry. However, with the ability of Coventry Homes to provide the desirable home design trends the Covid-19 pandemic had already positioned the organization for success. Spending more time at home and the shift in many family routines lead to more demand in homes that provide smart floor plans for multi-generational living, as well as more interest in the opportunity to own a home with a garden suite. Home shopping also drastically changed with typical showhome hours and visits needing to be updated, so Coventry ensured consumers were able to book private showhome tours as well as explore virtual

tours on all showhomes and most quick possession homes available – right from the comfort of their homes or offices.

With Coventry Homes, homebuyers will find an excellent assortment of home styles to choose from, including bungalows, two-storeys, duplexes, townhomes and streetscape homes. Currently, Coventry is building new homes in 15 of the Edmonton area’s most coveted communities.

Prospective buyers can explore Coventry Homes within the communities of Cy Becker, Crystallina Nera, Keswick Landing, Laurel Crossing, Maple Crest, The Uplands at Riverview, The Village at Griesbach, West Secord, Aspen

Trails in Sherwood Park, Lake Westerra in Stony Plain, Riverside in St. Albert, Ardrossan Heights near Sherwood Park, Copperhaven in Spruce Grove, South Pointe in Fort Saskatchewan, and Woodbend in Leduc. New communities homebuyers can begin exploring in 2021 will include Hawks Ridge, Glenridding Ravine and Aster.

Seven new Coventry showhomes will be unveiled in 2021, each showcasing excellent designs and Lifestyle Package options. The showhomes will be opening in the exciting communities of Griesbach, West Secord, Glenridding Ravine, Riverside, Crystallina, Ardrossan and Hawks Ridge! Be sure to stay updated with the latest information on grand opening dates throughout the year.

Known for their coveted Lifestyle Packages, Coventry Homes has expertly designed fantastic upgrades that offer a personalized addition to the home building process – without the hassle! Homebuyers are able to customize their home to suit their individual needs, by choosing from a variety packages, like The Executive Chef, which features a huge 36 inch gas stove and a Kitchenaid® stainless steel French door fridge; The Pampered One®, an indulgent home spa package that features a steam shower, rain shower head, jet tub and electric in-floor heating; As the Preferred Builder of the Edmonton Oilers, Coventry Homes is proud to be the only builder with the exclusive ability to offer the Oilers Fan Cave Lifestyle Package – which continues to be a favourite among hockey-lovers! Plus, there will be some exciting new Lifestyle Packages launching in 2021 based on consumer’s changing needs and home design trends.

home package and flexible solar package bundles – which will be featured in upcoming showhomes.

One of the key qualities that sets Coventry Homes apart from other homebuilders in the industry is the top-quality finishings that are standard in their homes.

Homebuyers will find granite, hardwood, and tile within Coventry Homes – features that are essential to the Coventry Homes brand. Coventry’s Marketing Manager, Tara Van Horn, explains; “This year has presented many unprecedented challenges and a variety of changes; however, one thing that remains steadfast is our commitment to quality and value.

It’s important to us to showcase our most popular options up front so that our clients aren’t faced with unexpected hidden costs later in their home buying journey. We adamantly believe that you don’t have to break the bank on upgrades to have a great, and custom, home!”

Supporting local organizations is as important as ever, and giving back to the community within the Edmonton area is important to the entire team at Coventry Homes. Over the past decade, the Coventry team has devoted fundraising efforts towards the Edmonton Humane Society by hosting their annual Coventry Homes Paws and Claws Gala and other EHS initiatives. Coventry is able to raise funds that help care for neglected, abused and homeless animals through these events, and this year Coventry celebrated their 12th annual Gala on March 7, 2020.

This yearly fundraiser has raised over $1,000,000 for the EHS! With large gatherings on a pause, Coventry team is looking at inventive ways to raise necessary 10

New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 8–Feb. 5, 2021

funds for the EHS while helping to keep Albertans safe – more details to come in early 2021.

A new initiative Coventry Homes is involved with is the Building Futures program, where they have partnered with the Spruce Grove school division to create a hands-on learning program for high school students. The program allows for Grade 10’s to learn the steps and skills needed to build a home, alongside Coventry staff and trades, and in the process are earning credits towards their high-school diplomas.

This unique opportunity provides students with an authentic experience where, by the end of the year, they will have built a home and learned valuable insight about contributing to their community.

Coventry Homes’ CEO, Henri Rodier, founded the company based on values that are still true to his team today and notes the importance of adapting to provide the best options for customers, “Our flexibility and highly customizable approach to home design has always been a key benefit for our clients and our newest offerings will be no different. You can expect to see even more flexibility in terms of our models and optional layouts, customizations to our quick possession homes, and even within our curated lifestyle packages.” Coventry’s commitment to customer service ensures all clients receive a firstrate experience and are interacting with a team that is genuine, ethical, and devoted to delivering a product that enriches their lives.

WELCOME THE NEW YEAR!

WHAT’S HAPPENING There’s always an air of excitement when welcoming a new year, and 2021 is no exception. After a year that brought a lot of uncertainty, and changed lives across the globe, 2021 brings us hope for brighter days ahead. Locally, the start of the new year would typically mean some January winter festivals, but many have postponed or adjusted their schedules – including Ice on Whyte, which will have a scaled back version of their event this year. Nevertheless, Edmonton is full of family-friendly activities that are safe and still allow us to enjoy the winter season. Outdoor ice rinks, toboggan hills, ski hills and more are open and ready to deliver on some winter excitement. Visit edmonton.ca to explore activities, parks and recreation options that are available. Stay safe and be sure to keep up with the latest health updates at alberta.ca/covid19.

SMART IS THE NEW SEXY IN HOMES

by PEPPER RODRIGUEZ

Smart is sexy in Edmonton’s new home scene, as more builders offer smart home automation as part of the package and some now even offer this as a standard.

Homebuyers now can opt to have all the bells and whistles of a smart home when they move in, instead of getting it piecemeal and have to go through the complexity of getting all the various tech gadgets to communicate with each other. Imagine getting Siri to talk to Alexa!

It used to be that the handclap-activated light fixture was the extent of home automation, but now everything can be controlled from your 16

New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 8–Feb. 5, 2021

smart phone, and not just lighting! Thermostats, door locks, security cameras – the power to control your home is at your fingertips.

Homebuilders have gotten on board the technology train, and some like Jayman BUILT are offering it as a standard with every home purchase.

Dave Desormeaux, President, Jayman BUILT, tells Edmonton New Home + Condo Guide that having home automation a standard was important to them, and that buyers have responded well to the initiative.

“Home automation makes our homes safer, healthier, and we are able to leverage home technology – like the Ecobee Smart Thermostat

– for greater energy efficiency,” he says.

Desormeaux has a passion for technology and spent “literally 10 years” of personal experimentation, testing and waiting for the technology to become refined, affordable and accessible to majority of homebuyers before embarking on what has become a signature feature in all Jayman BUILT homes.

“Making smart home technology benefits available to everyone - from starter homes to our luxury homes... taking something that was once only affordable by a few and making it available to all.

Every homeowner should be able to leverage this technology to live safer, healthier, smarter and more energy efficient using this technology,” he adds.

JAYMAN BUILT includes the following as standards now with every home purchase: • 1 Ring Video doorbell with Motion sensor and 2-way talk.

• 1 Ring HD Video Floodlight.

• Schlage Encode Smart Door Lock.

• Five Kasa Smart Switches. “We install these five switches in the Master Bedroom, Front

Foyer, Kitchen, Kitchen Table and Front Porch.

These are the most beneficial and used places for smart switches,” Desormeaux says.

• Ecobee Smart Thermostat with Voice Control.

• and Amazon Alexa Show 5. “It’s the hub, the integrator that connects all the devices listed above. It also does everything ‘smart’ that Alexa is famous for,” he adds.

“Jayman tested, negotiated direct with manufacturers to select best in class equipment and manufacturers, complete compatibility and integration with no monthly monitoring costs. The system can easily be upgraded, enhanced for decades to come,” he adds.

Desormeaux says Jayman BUILT has been able to keep costs low with their massive purchase power and that there isn’t a lot of difference between the price of a Jayman BUILT home with all these standard home automation features, and a home that doesn’t.

dream home How to design your

by C. MARIE HEBSON

18 New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 8–Feb. 5, 2021

It’s hard to pinpoint what I start with when I design a $2.2 million dollar dream home, but I can say with assurance that it always has a defined personality. I also prefer to connect the outside to the inside in both color palette and style genre, then every element of that home will fit within the boundaries of that style. To create tension and excitement, I often mix style genres, like in this home, where I paired renaissance art with contemporary art, and leaned more modern with my chandeliers and light fixtures, but kept the millwork traditional.

This particular home was put together with Old English Tudor stylings and designs. I pushed the main and second floors into classic traditional, but the basement “man-cave” has a rock n’ roll vibe to it. Complete with Nano Window Wall, Roche Bobois inspired sectional, cool matte gun metal black pool table and gold gilded portraits of great rock n roll icons like Robert Plant and Mick Jagger, who happen to be modern English.

Know what finishes you want to use for your lighting, plumbing and cabinetry hardware.

Know what tone of wood you want.

Will you embellish your home with millwork, or will features be with wallpaper, stone or art?

Collect photos of every room for your design intent to help you stay on track with future selections you need to make.

Ask yourself, would the elements your considering fit into that inspiration photo seamlessly?

No matter what your specific style – knowing what you want, how much you want to spend and telling your designer those basic parameters will ensure the end result will be most gratifying.

Seeing the faces of my clients and how happy they are to have their home perfectly appointed never ceases to amaze me, that is my pay day.

INNOVATIVE DESIGN COMES TO FORE IN EDMONTON COMMUNITIES

by PEPPER RODRIGUEZ

Village at Griesbach

Location, location, location – that has ever been the all-important phrase when searching for real estate property. Or so we’re told. But, these days of ever evolving communities, there seems to be more of an emphasis now on innovation.

New communities rely now more than ever on more innovative designs that enhance the lives of its residents and add to the appeal of its location. Developers go to great lengths to bring in more amenities, and many have reaped rewards both in industry acclaim and strong sales.

These innovative designs can span from new environmentally sustainable initiatives, a unique historical perspective, or a design that emphasizes the connectedness of the community to nature. And much more.

NextHome set out to explore some of Edmonton and area’s newest neighbourhoods that bring these exciting new innovations to life.

New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 8–Feb. 5, 2021

VILLAGE AT GRIESBACH

With a firm grasp of history and an eye on the future, the Village at Griesbach stays on the path of smart growth by balancing the needs to honour its past with the necessities of a modern lifestyle.

This Canada Lands Company (CLC) endeavour to turn this former Canadian Forces base in the heart of Edmonton into a progressive community for the future is going exactly as planned.

“We are currently in the planning and production phase of a new show home parade, expected to open June of 2021,” says Georgette L’Hirondelle, CLC Marketing Manager, Real Estate. It will be a fitting follow up to Village at Griesbach’s win for best show home parade at the 2020 BILD Alberta Awards.

“Plans have also been approved for the Village at Griesbach newest water feature, Maple Leaf Pond. As well, new businesses are being added to the commercial space, shopping, dining and personal services,” she adds.

Find out more at www.villageatgriesbach.com.

Woodhaven Edgemont

Village at Griesbach

WOODHAVEN EDGEMONT

Nature is at the heart of Woodhaven Edgemont and residents are guaranteed to feel like winners as they walk its secluded, thickly forested pathways.

Now, they’ll feel even more so, as the young Rohit Communities development in West Edmonton won Best New Community at the 2020 CHBA – Edmonton Region Awards of Excellence in Housing.

Lovingly designed to make the most of its unique location nestled in the midst of ravines with winding multi-use trails, Woodhaven Edgemont won the company its first major award. “It is very gratifying to be recognized in such a prestigious event,” says marketing manager, Marty Pawlina. “We’re the local company making a difference in land development.”

Woodhaven’s peaceful, serene surroundings can be enjoyed by everyone, especially residents along the first phase of its development where an overwhelming majority of the 163 homes will be located no more than 100 metres from the ravine or water feature. “It represents living in the midst of nature in the best way,” he says For more information, go to www.woodhavenedgemont.com.

UPLANDS AT RIVERVIEW

Qualico Communities’ The Uplands at Riverview brings into sharp perspective the greenspace philosophy that the developer espouses. Natural elements such as parks, playgrounds and walking trails are integrated with nearby amenities such as schools, recreation facilities and shopping. It offers a quiet, secluded setting that also allows access to major driving routes when needed.

Reanna Rehman, Project Manager for Qualico Communties’ The Uplands at Riverview says their greenspaces are designed to “serve as destinations for

Uplands at Riverview

pedestrians and cyclists, while providing passive and active recreation opportunities.”

The Uplands allows residents to follow nature trails and explore the rugged beauty of the nearby Wedgewood Creek Ravine. Lots backing on to the ravine are also available.

Natural systems play an important role in ecological conservation, Rehman adds. “Passive recreation includes existing tree stands and wetlands that offer a rich mixture of habitat of vegetation and wildlife.”

In fact, at The Uplands, Qualico is trying something new with its Altalink Corridor that is designed to promote wildlife and bees. “This pollinator corridor features thousands of shrubs that attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies and birds,” she says. “Our playgrounds are also designed to be all-inclusive and accessible to all.”

EXPLORE SHERWOOD PARK

by PEPPER RODRIGUEZ DINE

Strathcona Science Provincial Park

The community of Sherwood Park is located just east of Edmonton.

It is a community that has seen tremendous growth over the past two decades with well over two-thirds of Strathcona County residents residing here.

Growth is the abiding promise in Sherwood Park. Even now, there are several ongoing residential developments that make it the perfect place to put down roots in.

There is the ambitious Centre in the Park at the heart of the community that will combine residential, retail and public spaces to make it a true urban centre of the future.

Both Salvi Group and Cameron Development are building contemporary mixed-use condos at Centre in the Park. Salvi (www. mysavona.ca ) offers luxury condo living and mixed-use retail for those who crave convenience, coupled with style and simplicity.

While Cameron Developments (www.camdevcorp.com) is building a new mixed-use development that includes a multi-storey residential building and is located across from Strathcona County’s 28

New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 8–Feb. 5, 2021

administrative offices and community centre, shopping mall, St. Theresa (middle school) and Salisbury Composite High School.

Sherwood Park also boasts the affluent Sherwood Golf and Country Cub Estates community (www.landrex.com). Developed

by Landrex, it offers some of the most luxurious homes this side of Edmonton. Homebuyers also get a terrific amount of choice for front drive, laned and duplex homes in Qualico Communities’ Summerwood (www.summerwood. qualicocommunitiesedmonton. com). SummerWood is conveniently located near grocery stores, shopping, restaurants and recreation facilities. For ease of access, the Yellowhead Highway and Highway 21 are just minutes away.

But why will people want to live in Sherwood Park? Well, for one thing, there is no shortage of amenities, including boutique shops, delicious diners and various points of interests that make it a great place to live. Here are a few, as we Explore Sherwood Park.

Vicky’s Bistro and Wine Bar www.vickys.ca You can’t get more family-run than Vicky’s! This landmark bistro and wine bar along Festival Avenue serves up a dizzying array of dishes that fuses traditional Greek and western cuisine.

Vicky’s Bistro and Wine Bar is located next to the Strathcona County Library and provides an elegant dining experience!

After over 30 years of experience and unforgettable cuisine, the Milonas family have integrated a new generation of family into a modern dining experience.

Try out their Paidakia prime char-broiled lamb chops with mint glaze. Or the popular Salmon Mediterranean that uses fresh, organic Chinook salmon with tomato, avocado and apples served on a bed of greens with house-made balsamic glaze.

Greenland Garden Centre Greenland Garden Centre SHOP

Greenland Garden Centre www.greenlandgarden.com It’s been over five decades since Greenland was first established.

In 1960, John Chichak started the company, specializing in lawn maintenance with a small garden centre in north Edmonton. In 1989, John’s children - Deborah, Tim, Wayne, and son-in-law Rod, decided to build a garden centre that was to be a year-round destination for gardening, home décor and so much more. On April 23, 1991, the new Greenland celebrated it’ grand opening.

Since then, Greenland has grown to be one of the largest garden centers in Alberta. There is a wide array of products here ranging from garden décor and supplies to home décor. And plants, of course – roses, perennials, trees and shrubs, tropicals, and herbs. They can all be found at their location where Clover Bar Road (Exit 405) meets Yellowhead Trail (Highway 16) just a few minutes east of Edmonton.

Strathcona Science Provincial Park www.albertaparks.ca This park is part of Edmonton’s River Valley Trail System, connected to Rundle Park by a pedestrian bridge. It is a four-season playground readily available to residents of Sherwood Park and the greater Edmonton area. Besides animal watching, bird watching and stargazing there are a ton of fun activities to be enjoyed in the park, including hiking, cycling, cross country skiing, trail running and a fertile ground for the photography enthusiasts. Permitted activities may vary within the park, so it’s best to check with park staff, especially regarding COVID-19 guidelines.

SEARCHING FOR A NEW HOME

AT HOME

LAURA BRUNO

With families spending a lot more time at home this year, many families have been reevaluating what they need from their homes.

While a home office and outdoor space may not have been a huge necessity a year ago, it may have become much more important in the changing landscape of 2020.

The good news is that there are many ways to interact with new communities and homes from the comfort of your current home. Community developers and home builders have a great online presence complete with a myriad of tools to help you start your search for a home that suits your needs.

Prospective home buyers are able to view community maps for a better look at the neighbourhood, along with floor plan photos of different homes.

34 New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 8–Feb. 5, 2021

Many home builders also have videos or interactive virtual 3D walk throughs so you can get a good feel for the square footage, layout, and amenities of a home.

Using a combination of all of these tools can help you determine what you need and the best homes that can help you accomplish that.

Another resource you can leverage are chat boxes which can help to answer any questions you may have about a home and ensure you are accessing all the tools available. They are also a great way to establish initial contact with a home builder that you may be interested in.

If you are considering visiting a showhome, make sure you are aware of all public health measures that are in place and check showhome hours online. It’s also a great opportunity to book an appointment with the expert sales team to ensure all your questions will be answered.

Making sure your home works well for your needs is important.

Whether you’re looking for a condo, townhouse, detached family home or anything in between, there are great opportunities for new home ownership in the Edmonton region and amazing tools to start your search from home.

The Canadian Home Builders’ Association – Edmonton Region is a not-for-profit, volunteer driven organization that has fostered a community for the residential construction industry supporting more than 450 member companies through advocacy, education and recognition.

Laura Bruno is the Chief Executive Officer of CHBA – ER. Laura began her career in land development where she discovered she had a passion for the industry. She started at CHBA – ER in 2018 and has been a strong advocate and champion for the industry since assuming that role.
