“Homes may be a bit smaller due to the walk-out de- signs, which will allow for the interiors to be dressed up,” he says. “Plus, you have the added advantage of having such
a livable lower lev- el. People will be able to enjoy luxu- ry and great views on every level.” Mark Penner adds that the developer wants to accom- modate home- owners’ individual tastes. “Not every home will look the same – Countryside Crossing is not go- ing to be a cookie- cutter community,” he says. Irwin Homes’ An-
drew Koop says his company’s show home will high- light creative design options during the Fall Parade of Homes. “We’ve gone with something different: A pergola at the front of the home with posts and beams com- bined with cultured stone. Landscaping will be tied into the design with fir timbers,” Koop says. “There will be no same-old, same-old here. Inside, there will be lots of tile, highlighted by an ensuite with a tile floor that looks like hardwood, and a cool floor-to-ceiling vanity.” Snow says prospective home buyers can also expect unique flourishes from Warkentin Homes. “Imagine living on a walk-out lot next to a creek with big windows for views and a warm, inviting interior with finishes such as walnut cabinets,” she says. Wayne Penner says Countryside Crossing will be a purchaser-driven rather than a builder-driven devel- opment. “About 70% of the lots will be made available to the public, 30% to builders,” he says. “People can choose from one of four preferred build- ers – Irwin Homes, Maric Homes, K. Streu Homes or Warkentin Homes. Or they can buy a lot and build with whomever they want.” Prices range from $159,900 for standard lots up to $198,900 for larger lots. The first residents were ex- pected to move in by late summer or early fall. See www.countrysidecrossing.com .
