through Highland Pointe. “You have about a kilometre of walk- ways all throughout the develop- ment, including along our lakes. And we have more to come,” he says. Additional builds in the develop- ment are in full swing. “Phase 3 has a good mix of single- family, townhomes and duplexes, and interest is keen,” he says. "Both phases 3 and 4 are selling out quickly, so we encourage those interested to reach out soon.” Highland Pointe offers a range of appealing housing options to fit different budgets. “We provide a mixture of housing. We have single-family lots that back onto parks and lakes that are higher-end amenity homes,” Carruthers says. “We also have standard single-family front drives, lane lots, duplexes as well as townhomes.” Multi-family developments are also being planned with a townhome and another apartment complex expected to be underway in Highland Pointe over the next year. “With the apartment complex, senior
residents can age in place and enjoy close proximity to the walkways and green spaces,” he says. The future is already in sight with Phase 5 expected to come to market this fall and into 2026. “We’re bringing on 235 lots in Phase 5, which are primarily single family,” Carruthers says. Additional multi-family develop- ments, with a mix of townhomes and multi-family apartments, are also being planned. With all the exciting new growth in Highland Pointe, one thing will remain the same.

hen you are considering a new home build, the quality of construction
and design are key priorities. But quality still needs a great loca- tion, rich with amenities that foster friendly communities. Since Highland Pointe launched in 2021, Ladco has been including those desirable amenities within the development to support a thriving neighbourhood culture. Mike Carruthers, Ladco’s land devel- opment manager who has been with the privately owned company for 19 years, says it’s satisfying to see these projects grow. “It takes a long time for a community to go from planning to construction to completion,” Carruthers says, “and it’s exciting to see the neigh- bourhood start to come alive.” A lively new addition to Highland Pointe is another park located near Thrush Street and Nuthatch Bay. “Fernbank Park will have a play- ground and a brand new picnic shelter,” he says. “And we’ve preserved a beautiful little ‘micro- forest’ to keep nature in the picture.” Attractive walkways also meander
