COMING HOME TO HIGHLAND POINTE

BY KRISTIN MARAND

N estled between McPhillips and Main Street, minutes away from the north Perimeter Highway, is Highland Pointe, a master-planned com- munity established in 2021 that will see tremendous growth in the next decade. Eventually, these 400 acres of wet- land-inspired and eco-friendly land will be home to 3,000 families. More beauti- fully appointed lots in this high-demand area will be available in 2026, the fifth phase of this well-thought-out develop- ment by Ladco. “A master-planned community is a large development area that’s been planned from Day 1, has multiple dif- ferent land uses and a lot of thought put into the details,” explains Michael Carruthers, manager of land develop- ment for Ladco. “We have a variety of residential housing options, we have all the parks and open spaces planned from the beginning and land is set aside for commercial development in the future.” Roughly one third of the total land in Highland Pointe is currently devel- oped with luxury walkouts, front-drive single-family homes, townhomes, duplexes, lane homes, multi-family and rental units. Currently selling and ready

“We’re fairly flexible when it comes to design,” Gallagher says. “We allow our builders to build what the market wants. We don’t dictate what you have to build, but we do have some minor require- ments for the minimum square footage, where the garage location is and some exterior finishes. They have freedom to build what their customer wants within a certain degree.” The amenity-rich area — which is close to shopping, Seven Oaks Hospital, The Wellness Institute, schools, pools and recreation centres including the Leila Soccer Complex — is poised for growth over the next several years. There is also a new school under con- struction south of Highland Pointe. “If you follow us for the next few years, you’ll see Highland Pointe grow incre- mentally,” Carruthers says. “We’re mov- ing steadily from one stage to the next with roughly 10 phases planned in total, depending on market demand. For the Spring Parade of Homes, there should be more than a dozen show homes on dis- play, including a good mix of single-fam- ily, duplex and townhomes.”

for construction are lots for duplexes, townhomes and rear-drive lots in Phase 3. There is also a townhome condo project under development and another 235 single-family lots will be available in Phase 5, selling in 2026. “We’ve got a variety of housing options available for the market,” says Sean Gallagher, development officer at Ladco. “We provide a wide variety of products to meet many budgets and family formations — everything from new couples to single people to young families, and we try to make it so that you can age in place.” New additions to the development include the recent completion of the four-acre Fernbank Park and a picnic shelter. In total, Highland Pointe will be home to 35 acres of park space filled with prairie plants, playgrounds, lakes, wetlands and more than two kilometres of path and walkways. Another large multi-use park is planned for the north- ern corner of the community. Highland Pointe offers homes from some of Winnipeg’s finest build- ers: A&S Homes, Daytona Homes, Discovery Homes, Hilton Homes, KDR Homes, Manak Homes, Randall Homes, Signature Homes and Ventura Homes.
