With a reputation built on quality construction, the third-generation family business is now building more projects beyond the city limits. "We're expanding our horizons," says general manager Joshua Rist. "Last year, we built our show home in La Salle, and we realized that we really like building beyond the Perimeter." The company will take on projects anywhere within a half-hour from the city, as well as on in- fill lots and in new developments in Winnipeg. Rist notes that rural living offers several benefits, including lower property taxes and larger lots. "You can have your own space. If you have a dog, it can run around outside. It's also great for kids because there's so much more yard for them to play and grow up in," he says. "In addition, lots are less expensive out- side the city, so you can really invest more into your home." Discovery Homes is currently working in existing developments such as King- swood South on the La Salle golf course only a 15-minute drive from the city. Al- ways looking to expand their offerings Discovery Homes is looking for newer developments such as The Grande, a de- velopment in Grande Pointe that will be starting this summer. The company is showcasing three entries in the Spring Parade of Homes, including an impressive 1,996-square-foot bungalow in La Salle, at 44 Fourth Ave. South in Prairie View Lakes. Rist says anyone interested in build- ing a custom home should call Discovery Homes at 204-231-8118. "Every project is unique and is its own, so the best thing is for us to con- nect with people and show how we can help them," he says. For more information, visit www.discoveryliving.ca.
