Nearly 1,800 people have already made that dream a reality after discovering the southeast Carma community of New Brighton.

“The community has really caught on with people who are attracted to the architecture, the location, the private club facility and generous Central Park space,” says Bob Clark, vice president of Carma Developers.
Paying homage to the stunning beauty of the English countryside, New Brighton is the ultimate address for flourishing families thanks to acres of lush park space, the New Brighton Club and an unbeatable location.

The Central Park spans an impressive 20 acres and features a 12-acre wet pond – ideal for residents looking to enjoy the natural splendor of the area.

“The 20-acre park is something for the whole community to enjoy, whether it’s a leisurely stroll along the pathways within the park and around the pond or an afternoon picnic with family and friends,” says Clark.
New Brighton also offers active residents the ultimate address year-round thanks to the private New Brighton Club, which boasts everything from 6,500 square foot clubhouse to tennis courts, a hockey rink, volleyball and basketball courts and of course, the water play area that doubles as a skating rink in the colder months.

The clubhouse is also set to include a 4,400 square foot gymnasium down the road, ensuring a growing list of year-round activities including floor hockey and community events.

Fusing the traditional details of the English countryside with signature Carma technology, New Brighton is the ideal blend of charm and convenience.

Every home in the “Carma Connected” community is constructed with structured wiring for audio and video signals within the home and to allow certain functions to operate from a remote location.  Community interaction is also encouraged thanks to the Intranet which allows residents to access chat rooms, send e-mails, post classified ads and find out about upcoming community events.   

“Families are really making a connection to the mixture of old English Country charm and new technology in New Brighton,” he says.

Located in the city’s highly sought after southeast, New Brighton offers busy residents easy access to endless shopping and major transportation routes, including Deerfoot Tr. and 52 St. S.E.

“New Brighton is situated just east of McKenzie Towne’s High Street, which offers a wide range of shopping and services.  Currently, access to New Brighton will be directly from 52nd Street SE via New Brighton Gate.  Eventually there will be four access routes that connect with New Brighton Drive, the interior collector road that loops around the entire community.”

With eight stunning show homes by Beattie Homes, Cardel Homes, Cedarglen Homes and Morrison Homes, as well as six homes by Heartland Homes, discerning buyers are able to choose the ultimate English-inspired single-family abode to suit their lifestyle.

“The English Country architectural features create a very elegant and unique look and the community is the perfect blend of timeless detail and modern technology.”
