Seamless experience, either way

Good news, Southwestern OntarioOne of the appealing factors of

Southwestern Ontario, purely from

a housing market perspective, has

long been a� ordability. Indeed,

homeowners in the GTA may be

loving the price growth they’re

experiencing, but for buyers looking

to get into that market, high prices

represent a serious challenge.

So, more good news for SWO in this

context comes from Canada Mortgage

and Housing Corp.’s recent Housing

Outlook Conference, which underlines

that towns and housing markets in this

region – from London to Hamilton and

more – are poised for growth.

Homes in SWO bordering the GTA

are expected to see a lot of activity next

year, CMHC says, including in multi-

family housing.

detached designs.

In Mattamy’s Hawthorne Village

neighbourhoods, you’ll fi nd

memorable greenspaces, parks,

playgrounds, trails to walk or bicycle,

plus community retail areas nearby so

that chores can be performed on foot

rather than by car. A range of public

and private schools are all close by.

Plus, there’s always a full calendar of

community events and activities that

contribute to the community feel.

Hawthorne Village has earned

many industry distinctions through

the years for its neighbourhood

design and diversity of home

styles. Customer satisfaction has

always been very important to

Mattamy Homes and the awards

they receive due to comments

from their homeowners are most

highly regarded.

It’s worth noting that Mattamy was

recently named GTA Builder of the

Year for an unprecedented sixth time

by the Building Industry and Land

Development Association (BILD).

Mattamy has always been known as

more than a homebuilder as their

design approach always considers

communities as a whole.

For more than 15 years, the

company has participated in the

creation and evolution of day-

to-day life in Milton. Mattamy has

contributed signifi cantly to the arts

and recreational programs in the

community, including the Mattamy

Theatre in the Milton Centre for the

Arts, a cultural jewel in the heart of

the downtown area. As well, Mattamy

also just opened the state-of-the-art

Mattamy National Cycling Centre.

Open to the public, it is one of only

two velodromes in North America

to meet the highest international

standards. In fact, the facility hosted

the cycling events of the recent 2015

Pan Am Games.

The story of Milton wouldn’t be

complete without acknowledgement

of the aforementioned and nearby

escarpment. A fully protected

UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve,

the escarpment is breathtaking

to view and naturally inspiring for

recreational adventurers.

With such a great variety of homes

available in such a desirable location,

Hawthorne South Village should

surely be on the top of your list of

communities to consider.

Mattamy’s Hawthorne South Village A colourful community under the Escarpment

THE AIR IS CRISP AND THE COLOURS

are exhilarating. Walking or driving

about, there are few more attractive

destinations to be explored in the

Greater Toronto Area than Milton. The

attractions of life under the escarpment

are obvious and irresistible.

Much of Milton’s appeal is its

charming heritage. Cherished century

homes and buildings still stand tall

throughout the region. Walk about

and acknowledge an impressive

collection of storefronts and home

styles tucked just off the main street.

Well-known for its eye on the

past, the community just celebrated

its annual Milton Steam Era –

populated by hundreds of steam-

powered tractors, engines and farm

implements converging to salute a

bygone era. Despite their interest

in the past, the people of Milton

maintain an eye firmly fixed on the

future. Known as the fastest-growing

community in Ontario’s Golden

Horseshoe, the town continues to

attract residents to this lovely and

livable place.

Mattamy Homes continues to offer

well-designed and superbly crafted

homes in burgeoning Hawthorne

South Village. Arguably Mattamy’s

most successful neighbourhood,

this most recent evolution of the

wildly successful Hawthorne Village

community offers an elevated realm

of home and community design.

Neighbourhood Profile

Waterloo ParkIn the formerly industrial shadow of Uptown Waterloo, there’s a bit of a renaissance going on. There’s more to Waterloo Park than the greenspace itself, however. Everyone’s on the move here, whether running or hiking, stopping to smell the roses and feed the goats, or heading to the Uptown core for some live music after dark.

VibeInnovative, energetic and idyllic, Waterloo Park feels like a community of the future. There’s a lot to love, from the repurposing of former industrial buildings and brownfields into smart and sustainable condo projects, to the intersection between academia, government and business success.

Meet the NeighboursIt’s a smart and generally upscale crowd, with the exception of the students. While there’s a lot of family activity in the area, this neighbourhood probably holds more appeal for single professionals who prefer to live, shop and eat out close to work. Academics and business types from all over the world have settled here.

In The AreaThe vast Waterloo Park contains the Lions Lagoon splash pad, the Eby Farm Zoo, playing fields, baseball diamonds, a tennis bubble and courts, Victorian gardens, walking trails, the Park Inn concession and grill, and picnic and event areas. In addition to the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University, there are three public elementary schools in the immediate area, with several private, separate, and secondary schools just a few blocks away.

Planes, Trains & AutomobilesWaterloo Park is a highly walkable neighbourhood, and the city has posted signs throughout advising residents and visitors of the best routes for pedestrians. Cycling is a popular means of getting around, either for pleasure or commuting. City buses serve the area extensively, while for out-of-town commutes, there’s easy access to Hwys. 7 and 85, and Hwy. 8 takes you right to the 401.

Real EstateWaterloo Park offers a pretty broad range of housing prices, from the inexpensive to the luxurious, and neighbourhood businesses also reflect this reality.

–Anne Marshall

comprising season ticket holders.

This a rarity in sports today, and

speaks to the level of community

spirit and involvement in Kitchener.

What does all this mean for

prospective homebuying in

Kitchener-Waterloo? For one thing,

KW-Cambridge is ranked as the

number two investment area in

Ontario through to 2018, according

to the Real Estate Investment

Network. In addition to the strong

economy, a commitment to

infrastructure improvements and

transportation projects will help drive

the economy and real estate market

in this area, the group says.

Builders seem to agree, as all

of Mattamy Homes, CountryGreen

Homes and Mountainview Homes

have developments underway

in Kitchener.

The area is proving to be a top

performing market in Ontario. The

latest House Price Survey from Royal

LePage, for instance, confirms the

housing market is being boosted

by employment growth in the

technology sector.

The survey shows healthy price

growth across all housing types

surveyed in Kitchener, Waterloo

and Cambridge. During the third

quarter of 2015, condominiums saw a

significant 14-per-cent increase year-

over-year to $234,026, bungalows

appreciated seven per cent to

$333,131, and two-storey homes rose

5.1 per cent to $363,397.

Despite the growth, Kitchener

remains proud of its German ancestry,

harking back to its founding in 1854

as the Town of Berlin. Today, about 25

per cent of residents are Canadians of

German descent.

Oktoberfest still serves as an annual

celebration of this heritage. The

nine-day event, based on the original

German Oktoberfest in Munich, is

the largest Bavarian festival in the

world outside of Germany, and runs

every October from the Friday before

Thanksgiving to the Saturday after.

All told, it sounds like a recipe

for continued prosperity – and

“ein prosit!”

City Focus | KITCHENER-WATERLOO

History, culture and prosperity in

KITCHENER-WATERLOOBy Wayne Karl

KITCHENER-WATERLOO MAY HAVE

once been best known as the home

of Kitchener-Waterloo Oktoberfest,

meat processor Schneider Foods

and the Ontario Hockey League’s

Kitchener Rangers. But while rich in

German heritage and other culture,

the town of about 220,000 has

more recently gained a reputation

more for high technology and

education than pork sausage and

beer-inspired oompahs.

This vibrant community located in

the Region of Waterloo in the heart

of Southwestern Ontario, helps form

the three point-towns that make

up “Canada’s Technology Triangle.”

Kitchener-Waterloo and Cambridge

today comprise one of Canada’s most

diverse economies, evolving from

a reliance on manufacturing into a

balanced economy that crosses many

sectors. Today, the area boasts a

thriving advanced technology sector

and a highly skilled workforce in the

IT, automotive, business and fi nancial

services sectors.

Complementing these strengths is

a naturally advantageous location off

Hwy. 401, close to major Canadian

cities Toronto and Hamilton, as

well as to entry points to the US at

Michigan and New York.

All of this has the region poised

for long-term economic health.

Employment and population growth,

two key factors in housing demand,

are both doing well in the area,

though they are not without their

challenges in the short term.

Residential construction is

experiencing a shift in the new home

market, from single-detached homes

to condos, and demographic changes

will support this continuing trend,

according to Canada Mortgage and

Housing Corp.

In terms of population, net

migration accounts for more than 50

per cent of the growth, CMHC says,

and is expected to average more than

3,000 annually. The city, in fact, is

second only to Toronto in attracting

immigrants, with almost all of them

under the age of 45. In addition, the

2011 Census showed population

in the Triangle grew 5.7 per cent to

477,160 in 2011 from 451,235 in 2006.

In addition to growth in high tech,

the region has also seen expansion

in the educational sectors in recent

years. A new health sciences campus

of the University of Waterloo,

located in downtown Kitchener,

has inspired social and economic

spin-off benefi ts. Redevelopment of

the downtown block includes new

condo, retail and hotel projects and

other improvements.

Transit expansion, an important

element for any growing city, has

also been a focal point for KW.

This facilitates transportation not

just within the city but also eases

commuter traffi c to Hamilton,

Oakville, Mississauga and Toronto.

GO Transit is also expanding to

the area, with extended bus and

train services.

As for entertainment, Kitchener

has a lot more going for it than

just Oktoberfest. From Bingemans

camping resort and family

playground, to Chicopee Ski Club,

to the Children’s Museum, the

Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery and

the Farmers’ Market, there is always

plenty to see and do in town.

And, of course, there are the

Kitchener Rangers of the OHL, a

fi xture in town since 1963. Playing

out of the storied Kitchener Memorial

Auditorium Complex, the Rangers are

especially noteworthy because they

are a publicly-owned team, operated

by a 40-member board of directors

Exclusive preview of anticipated Nautique Lakefront Residences by Adi Development Group draws huge crowds

THE EXCITEMENT WAS PALPABLE

in downtown Burlington recently

as crowds flocked to the highly

anticipated VIP preview of Nautique

Lakefront Residences by Adi

Development Group. Set to

arrive on Burlington’s coveted

downtown waterfront, the iconic

tower will define a new gateway to

the city’s core.

Nautique’s exquisitely appointed

presentation centre was abuzz with

eager buyers looking to be the first to

preview the unique suite layouts and

spectacular model suite.

“The response from everyone

who walked through the door at

Nautique’s preview unveiling blew

us away. The incredible demand

confirms that the city has been

waiting for this type of design-

forward, luxury condo on the

waterfront,” says Tariq Adi, CEO of Adi

Development Group.

A standout in Burlington’s hot

market, Nautique will introduce a new

price point to the city’s previously

unattainable waterfront, with

exclusive lakefront residences starting

from the high $200,000s.

Introducing an entirely new design

perspective to the City’s

core, Nautique’s striking

contemporary façades by RAW

Design make a bold statement with

translucent glass and fluid lines that

reflect its lakeside setting.

Preview registrants were invited

to experience Nautique’s interiors

designed by world-renowned

Cecconi Simone, evoking a

sophisticated, contemporary

lakeside lifestyle.

“We were so pleased with the

response to our preview opening.

project,” says Saud Adi, COO of Adi

Development Group. “The incredible

demand and feedback speaks to the

fact that Nautique off ers the best

amenities, the best views, and the

best location in the city.”

Guests enjoyed being the fi rst

to explore the expansive layout of

the model suite with all elements

pointing to breathtaking views of the

Lake Ontario. The custom European

kitchen prioritizes both style and

function, set around a sleek,

oversized island that doubles

as both a workspace and a hub

for entertaining, while panelled

appliances disappear from view,

hidden behind designer cabinetry.

Nautique’s amenity mix is deserving

of a fi ve-star hotel, but off ered

exclusively to residents. Nautique’s

Sky Lounge will off er the highest

vantage point in the city to take in

panoramic views of Lake Ontario, and

a quiet retreat in the fi reside lounge.

On the sixth fl oor, the building’s

state-of-the-art fi tness centre, yoga

deck and outdoor pool encourage a

year-round active lifestyle.

Located at the corner of Martha

and Lakeshore, Nautique is a

residential tower that will consist of

170 units, ranging from 452 to 1,316

sq. ft. with layouts ranging from

one-bedroom to two-bedrooms

NEW LOT RELEASES IN THE THIRD QUARTER played

a key role in driving up new home prices in some of

Southwestern Ontario’s key markets. The average price

of new detached homes on 30 to 39 ft. lots in Hamilton

increased by 9.9 per cent from Q2 to Q3 to an average

of $504,800. For the same product in Niagara Falls, the

average price rose by four per cent to $369,746. New

semi-detached homes in Guelph averaged $393,915 in Q3,

up 5.7 per cent over Q2. In Grimsby, the introduction of a

brand new waterfront project resulted in a whopping 168

per cent increase in the average price of new townhouses

– the largest increase of any market.

JENNIFER MARDINI RECENTLY

welcomed her fi rst baby – son Carter

– into her life and into her home.

Here’s her experience.

New Home & Condo Guide: This is

your fi rst child and your fi rst home.

What changes did you make to your

home to welcome Carter?

Mardini: My husband Jairo and I

bought our fi rst home in March 2014.

It has three bedrooms, so we knew

eventually one of the rooms would

become the baby’s once we were

ready. Other than a bedroom for our

new bundle of joy, we made some

space in one of our living rooms to

fi t his playpen, which also serves as a

bassinet and change table.

NH&CG: Did you know you were

having a boy, and how did you plan

the baby room accordingly?

Mardini: Yes, we knew we were

having a boy – I couldn’t not know

the sex of my fi rst child. I’m a planner;

I need to be organized.

Carter’s room was our extra

“closet” before he was born, so we

had to move everything out once we

started working on his room. When

we fi rst moved in, we painted the

entire house – all the bedrooms were

painted grey. So I knew I wanted to

use grey as the starting point, with

Inspiration

lots of white. I also wanted to add an

accent chevron wall and then add

blue and green accents.

NH&CG: What is the theme of

Carter’s room — neutral or more

boyish with sports, cars and trucks?

Mardini: It’s very modern and

contemporary – lots of grey and

white, accented with navy and some

light blues and greens here and there.

Lots of patterns, too – I’m not the

colourful, safari jungle type.

NH&CG: Describe the little guy’s

room – space, layout and furnishings.

Mardini: It’s about 100 sq. ft. and is

furnished with a white bedroom set,

including a crib that converts into

a double bed, a six-drawer dresser

and a change table. It also has a full

closet, a navy and white area rug, grey

chevron curtains and a grey and white

glider chair for me.

NH&CG: Now that Carter’s with you,

anything you wish you had done

di� erently in preparing his room?

Mardini: Carter’s only a month and

a half old, so outside of eating,

sleeping and pooping, there’s not a

whole lot that he needs other than

our attention. We don’t use his room

too much right now because he

sleeps in the master with mommy.

NH&CG: What other adjustments did

you make in your home for Carter’s

comfort and safety?

Mardini: Nothing really. We did

receive a baby video monitor as a

shower gift – we use it when he’s

napping. Once he starts crawling

around, we’ll defi nitely have to

reorganize and remove some things.

NH&CG: What advice would you

have for other fi rst-time parents

when it comes to preparing their

home for baby?

Mardini: De-clutter! From the garage

to the basement, bathrooms and

bedrooms. We de-cluttered the entire

house of things we didn’t need or use

anymore. It’s amazing how quickly

junk adds up. And start early – even

if it’s a slow start. There’s always

something to do, so for me, the earlier

the better. Start with the basics and

go from there. Try to do something

every day so it doesn’t feel like you’re

cramming everything in at once.

NH&CG: How is he settling in?

Mardini: Quite nicely – I think it’s

mom and dad who have had to do

the settling in.

NH&CG: How is mom doing?

Mardini: I’m doing great, overall!

Tired, but we all knew that. Adjusting,

of course, and getting used to a

whole new routine. I love being a

mom – Carter’s mom!

NH&CG: Can you tell – is he a Jays fan?

Mardini: Jays fan all the way! My

husband and I were at Game 5 of

the American League Division Series.

What a story to tell him one day!

NH&CG: Leafs or Canadiens?

Mardini: Defi nitely Leafs!

AVERAGE HOME PRICES showed

moderate to strong year-over-year

increases in most markets in Canada

in the third quarter of 2015, according

to the latest Royal LePage House

Price Survey. While the e� ects of

the crude oil shock are still fi ltering

through the economy, the country’s

non-energy sectors are beginning

to regain momentum as a lower

Canadian dollar stimulates sharply

higher exports, particularly to the

U.S., supporting overall consumer

confi dence and the strength of

Canada’s real estate markets.

On a national basis, the average

price of a home increased eight per

cent year-over-year to $502,643 in

the third quarter. Two-storey homes

rose 9.9 per cent year-over-year to

$615,304, bungalows 6.8 per cent

to $421,757, and condominiums

increased 2.7 per cent to $338,945.

“Economic slowdowns in energy-

Canadian average home prices surge with strong economy

MORE ADVICE ONLINEypnexthome.ca/waynekarl

dependent markets, most notably in

western Canada, have in part been

o� set by both renewed industrial

activity in other parts of the country

and the Bank of Canada’s recent

interest rate cuts,” says Phil Soper,

chief executive o� cer, Royal LePage.

As was the case in recent quarters,

the strong national home price

increases are largely being driven by

continued double-digit percentage

increases in the Greater Toronto Area

and Greater Vancouver.

Such price increases may be

good news for those who already

own a home, but present growing

a� ordability challenges for

prospective homebuyers.

“Access to a� ordable housing

in our largest cities has been and

will continue to be a challenge for

policy makers and for prospective

homeowners,” Soper told New Home

& Condo Guide. “There are similar

housing-access challenges in major

urban centres worldwide, from New

York to Mumbai.

“Despite the high cost of large city

homeownership, thousands of fi rst-

time buyers fi nd a solution every year.”

Soper says prospective buyers can

consider the following compromises:

Geography: moving farther from

the most expensive regions and

neighbourhoods of a city, or away

from the city core and commute

Property type: Choose a smaller

property or a property with less

expensive features (a smaller condo

versus a detached home, for example)

Financial: Take more time to save in

advance before purchasing or seek

more attractive fi nancing options.
