Hidden Gem Cont’d from page 18 Southeast
Also situated along the Seine is The Legend at Creek Bend. The show unit at 1205 St. Anne’s Rd. has a rustic vibe reminiscent of a chalet and the condos nurture a serious sense of community. Irwin Homes built the The Legend’s third phase, and agent Joel Neufeld says the con- cept and design is unique in Winnipeg. That instantly becomes clear in the two-storey entrance, which features an elegant wind- ing staircase and cozy fireplace. Units range from 760 square feet to 1,272 square feet with a starting price of $293,000. Since Irwin Homes typically specializes in single-family dwellings, the units are me- ticulously designed with custom-home ele- ments in mind. Buyers have their choice of oak, maple or thermofoil kitchen cabinets and all suites have large closets and in-suite laundry,
nine-foot ceilings and natural gas hookups for a balcony barbecues. The Legend resident Wayne McNabb says he appreciates amenities that in- clude a common room with pool tables, a gym, sauna, library and guest suites condo owners can rent for guests. “I like the whole atmosphere, the camaraderie that we have here,” he says. “Be- cause we do have so much common area, you get to know your neighbour.” When Mr. McNabb retired, he and his wife sold their house and bought a two-bedroom, 1,154 square foot condo in The Legend’s second phase so they could lock up and travel as they please.
