Those in search of a lifestyle upgrade – one where balance is a key theme – will find it nestled near a golf course, breezy beach, lush greenery, and the beauty of nature at Mattamy Homes’ and Parkbridge’s Lakehaven community.
Located in Innisfil Ontario, the fresh new community of freehold detached homes and land lease bungalow townhomes sits just minutes from Lake Simcoe’s scenic waterfront and trails, and within a short distance to schools, off-leash dog areas, parks, and restaurants.
Lakehaven offers obvious appeal for first-time buyers with growing families, as well as downsizers who, while maybe seeking a lower quantity of square footage, are not looking to compromise their quality of life.
Anyone familiar with a Mattamy or Parkbridge home knows they can rest assured, understanding that the same level of quality and attention to detail these established developers are known for extends to this coveted new community.
Now well into construction, with select homes currently available, this community has become the talk of the town for its role in addressing housing affordability.
Making the prospect of homeownership a little more accessible, one of Lakehaven's notable features is its series of land lease townhomes. Where this housing type is concerned, buyers purchase the home without taking ownership of the land it sits upon. With Parkbridge acting as the vendor, buyers own the townhome on the given plot of land, and pay the land lease rather than the full property fee. Naturally, this lowers the purchasing cost.
The land lease bungalow townhomes help first-time buyers on the affordability front, so they can get a foot in the pricey Ontario housing market. This option may also be an attractive one for those in search of a more affordable retirement. This unique homeownership option makes Lakehaven Ontario's first mixed-ownership community to feature both traditional freehold detached homes and land lease townhomes.
At Lakehaven, townhomes range in size from 1,274 to 1,763 sq. ft, and feature thoughtful designs that take optimal functionality into account. This means carefully considered details like well-placed mud rooms, covered patios, and bedrooms located at opposite ends of the home.
What's more, the development’s detached homes are available in a variety of floor plans, so they can best suit the needs of varying families and lifestyle considerations. These freeholds feature as many as four bedrooms, and are as large as 3,420 sq. ft.
For those hoping to call Lakehaven home sooner rather than later, a Quick Move-In Home option is available. With this choice, buyers can put their trust in professionally selected finishes (AKA: feel free to trust a designer with some of the details), and can look forward to a 2024 or early 2025 move-in date.
Meanwhile, for those looking to have more of an input on their living spaces, the community’s Architect’s Choice option invites buyers to select from a wide array of features, including a stunning chef’s kitchen, a pet-washing station, or a bath oasis — to encourage a spa-like unwinding once the sun sets on the picturesque community.
Furthermore, a personal Design Consultant will guide buyers through the countless interior home selections available in their Design Studio, offering the chance to showcase personal style — and make the space feel like home, even before move-in.
While Innisfil, with its picture-perfect shorelines, fresh air, and nature trails, seems worlds away from Ontario's bigger cities, life in Lakehaven is still a connected one (if you want it to be, that is). The area boasts excellent transportation infrastructure, including bus routes and proximity to GO stations.
That means Toronto’s restaurants, sporting events, and concerts are just a short trip away.
But of course, with Innisfil’s nature, recreation, and charming small businesses, once you start calling Lakehaven home, you may never want to leave.
