Parade of Homes

>> As you make your way through the Parade of Homes, seek- ing just the right community for you and your family, you may discover the perfect fit in Bonavista, one of the newest and highly regarded neighbourhoods by Genstar Development Company. Located next to Island Lakes and a short drive from St. Vital Centre, Bonavista is the perfect destination for families with a desire to connect with the beauty of nature in a scenic suburban setting. The community offers a little bit of everything — a picturesque community away from the hustle and bustle of downtown, yet close enough to Lagimodière and Bishop Grandin that you will have no trouble accessing Winnipeg's major routes for commutes. Bonavista offers a number of amenities that are a step above the standard fare for Winnipeg, including: • Naturalized wetlands where you can connect with wildlife. • A future recreation hub with facilities for friends and family to exercise and play. • An active park area, perfect for runners, dog walkers, yogis, and outdoor enthusiasts of every kind. Perhaps the area's most striking and unique feature will be the Bonavis- ta Park Lookout, which will break ground later this year. Early birds on their sunrise runs and night owls on their evening strolls can pause along the boardwalk to take in the area's natural beauty and prairie skies, making the Lookout a "must see" for any excursion. The Lookout is also a great destination for cyclists enjoying the roads and paths that meander through Bonavista, connecting the neigh- bourhood to adjoining communities. Bonavista's open roads and multi-use pathways make cycling easy and fun for families and cycling enthusiasts alike, with parkways running throughout the com- munity while a planned bike corridor moves towards completion. nearby, Lindsey Wilson Park is equipped with a splash pad for kids to cool off and make friends all summer long. Since the area is designed for low-impact development, sustainable living and natural beauty, the impact on Bonavista's surround- ings has been kept to a minimum. Along with the wetlands, parkways and other natu- ralized features mentioned above, Bonavista was designed for maximum solar exposure, giving homeowners opti- mal potential for reduced emissions (and expense) from heating and cooling systems. Be sure to visit Bonavista's neighbourhood and show homes as you make your way through the Parade of Homes.
