Live the dream in Arbour Lake West

A ready-made lifestyle is not something a lot of new communities can boast of, but a fulfilling, well-balanced living is just what Arbour Lake West can offer.

Developed by Hopewell Residential, this young northwest community comes already complete with all the amenities needed to enjoy life. Unlike many new communities on the edges of the city where it can take years to even have a nearby grocery, Arbour Lake West is nestled in a part of Calgary where life is already happening.

First of all, it is a lake community and residents of Arbour Lake West have access to the 10-acre, 20-foot-deep Arbour Lake and all its recreational opportunities. Secondly, there are all the extra amenities that usually take years to complete in new suburban communities – schools, shopping, entertainment and commercial venues already abound nearby. Lastly, is its accessibility - and not just its accessibility of its location surrounded by major thoroughfares like Stoney Trail and Crowchild Trail – but the accessibility its new home designs and prices offer to a wide range of homebuyers.

“We’re getting a lot of buyers who are already familiar with this northwest area and are looking for move-up homes and see the new designs of our front-drive homes fit their lifestyle needs,” says Jerry Trgina, Marketing Manager at Hopewell Residential.

And it’s not just move-up homebuyers, but downsizers and first-time homebuyers too. “Many find the low-maintenance lifestyle of that living in Arbour Lake West offers as a big reason to move here,” he adds.

Its central location means less time needed to travel for groceries and other necessities, and the abundance of recreational opportunities– from community parks, playgrounds and pathways to the nearby YMCA complex – means residents don’t need to go too far away to get fit or get kids to burn off excess energy.

Hopewell Residential is the land developer and exclusive homebuilder in Arbour Lake West and their vision to create a family-friendly suburban enclave in the northwest is taking shape quickly. The energy is palpable with all the construction activity going on.

“But since we are located in an already well-established part of the city, residents really only have to deal with very limited construction traffic,” he points out.

Being the sole homebuilder has also afforded Hopewell Residential the luxury of maintaining a streetscape that adheres to its aesthetic vision for Arbour Lake West and its 158 single-family homes on build out will have a distinct modern country and arts and crafts appearance.

The wide variety of front-drive garage homes that Hopewell Residential offers here is also a big component of Arbour Lake West’s success. There are eight new designs of two-storey and bungalow front-drive garage homes here starting from the $600,000s.

Hopewell also allows for a wide latitude in personalizing homes to fit the needs of the buyer, with more options for upgraded finishings.

Designed for growing families, Hopewell Residential’s line of front-drive garage homes in Arbour Lake West can have up to five bedrooms and three full baths. Options to develop basements and install private access side entrances have also become popular additions to their homes here.

“We actually have a limited-time promotion right now to include basement developments as part of the package,” Trgina says. “It’s an ideal and affordable way to get the most out of your home.”

Hopewell Residential opened the Luna showhome here recently and it has been quite the hit. It is an ideal home plan for families of all sizes that can accommodate up to five bedrooms, and offers special options like a spice kitchen, dens and home offices and more.

“This floorplan is one-of-a-kind. It’s practical, yet stylish, with dozens of optional layouts, along with the opportunity for investment with a well-planned legal basement suite option,” Trgina says.

The new show home showcases designer-curated finishing’s and high-end standards straight from Hopewell’s own DesignSense Selections team.

“The inspiration was a combination of warm and mid-century design and was finished with gold light fixtures, gorgeous walnut wood, oversized windows and beautiful décor to tie it all together,” said Diane Chrusciel, DesignSense Selections Manager at Hopewell Residential.

The Luna show home showcases two of Hopewell’s most popular palettes: Timber and Metro, and incorporates must-haves like study-from-home stations, a private flex room on the main floor, plenty of storage, and more.

“Arbour Lake West is such a desirable community for all types of families - large, small and multi-generational alike. That is why we chose to build our spacious and multi-generational Luna show home in this established and amenity-abundant neighbourhood,” Trgina says.
