Waterloo area: Elmira’s Country Club Estates

Within the quiet country setting of Elmira, you’re immediately aware that you are worlds away from the city, yet only minutes to everything. It’s a perfect balance of living and lifestyle for those that want to get away from it all and yet have it all.

The countryside has an enduring presence at Claysam Homes’ newest community, Elmira’s Country Club Estates. A few minutes in any direction and you will reach fruit and vegetable stands and farm gates where you can stop and purchase garden flowers, homemade summer sausage and delicious organic apples directly from the local farmers. Elmira is home to the world famous Maple Syrup Festival and is located just moments away from the Waterloo Farmers Market, the St. Jacobs Factory Outlet Mall and the Village of St. Jacobs where you’ll find contemporary craft studios, antique shops, theatre and excellent dining. Just beyond Kitchener and Waterloo, Elmira is within easy reach of Elora, Guelph and Stratford. From your front door, it’s an easy walk into downtown Elmira with its quaint shops and cafes.

As Claysam Homes prepares to launch Phase 2 of this community, there are two model homes that offer a prelude to the features you’ll find within this collection. The Birch model highlights standard features, while the model of the three-bedroom, open-concept Sugarbush is upgraded with many options. Phase 2 will offer 40- and 50-ft. lots with walkout basements and double car garages. Townhomes that quickly sold out in Phase 1 will be offered again in this release.

The last semis are under construction offering a closer closing date, while a version of the Birch is ready for a quick closing.

Reminiscent of yesterday with welcoming front porches and architectural details like brick work and window grills, these homes form a pleasing streetscape to unify the community. This is where homes are designed to embrace all lifestyles and family needs while enjoying the amenities of small town living that include friendliness, security and serenity. For a limited time, purchasers will receive a free Bell Fibe telecommunications package plus the choice of one three packages: central air or four appliances or a gas fireplace.

In its midst, a new elementary school is under construction in preparation for its opening in 2016. A new park is also taking shape alongside walking trails that meander throughout the area creating plenty of opportunity to enjoy nature or engage in recreation like a run, bike ride or a walk with the dog or the kids.

Claysam Homes is part of the Mike Holmes Approved Homes Program, a standard feature of its conventional homes in Neighbourhoods of Devonshire Woodstock, Plattsville Estates and Elmira Country Club Estates.

Says Sam Scicluna, CEO and founder of Claysam Homes, “We have always been confident in the product and service we provide our customers, but it was reassuring to know that someone like Mike Holmes who stands for quality materials and craftsmanship wanted to stand behind our product.”

With more than 20 years of building quality family homes, Claysam Homes has captured the desire of those seeking a quieter lifestyle, away from the city. They have the ability to create more than a house, but a family home for those that appreciate the quality, craftsmanship and features intrinsic to a Claysam home.
