THE COMPANY ENDEAVORS to provide homeowners with the freedom to individualize when it comes to their selection of floor plans and design options. Commitment to quality and customer satisfaction has made this award-winning provider of beautiful homes a leader in the industry. Each home is created from start to finish like that home is the only home, because as far as homeowners are concerned; it is. However, potential home buyers like to be able to get some idea of where to start, and this is why a Homes by Avi show home can offer future buyers a great place to get ideas and begin designing their own home.

Homes by Avi offers various styles, price-ranges and neighbourhoods to choose from, but some of their more impressive homes are in Evergreen Estates. Starting from the $380,000s, Evergreen Estates offers spacious homes with incredible floor plans to choose from. The Jacobson was Avi’s last show home in Evergreen Estates, and the plan ranged between 1938 and 2,342 square feet, depending upon the elevation and floor plan chosen. With exceptional craftsmanship, beautiful features and a unique and inspiring floor plan, the Jacobson offered visitors a chance to see what living in Evergreen Estates could be like. While celebrating their recent grand opening, Brett Kryskow, area Sales Manager with Homes by Avi, says that the newest Homes by Avi offers yet another inspired floor plan for potential home owners to explore. The Springbank offers plan options between 2,106 and 2,377 square feet, a little larger than the Jacobson, with a beautiful open-concept floor plan and its own unique design features. This beautiful three-bedroom Tudor-style home with front attached garage includes additional living spaces such as the bonus room and dining room/study, and a floor plan that offers plenty of room to spread out and relax.

One of the first things that you’ll notice right away when entering this beautiful home, is the dining room with its two-way decorative wall shelving that allows decorative items to be viewed from both the foyer and the dining room itself. This alone is a distinctive design feature. However, the two-way fireplace is definitely a feature that visitors won’t soon forget. This attractive fireplace allows occupants of both the dining room and the adjacent great room to enjoy its warmth and beauty, and includes a fully tiled wall and hearth that spans nearly the whole width of both rooms. Recesses in both the dining and great room walls allow for even greater decorative creativity and in this particular show home these decorative alcoves are used to showcase elegant pieces of furniture that add to the ambiance of both rooms. From the foyer and throughout the main floor, rich black walnut hardwood floors lead from room to room, and the same charcoal-coloured tile that is used in the fireplace, is lined around the base of the kitchen cabinets, complimenting the hardwood floors and drawing the colours of the great room into the kitchen.

The kitchen itself is quite elegant with warm inviting dark stained maple cabinets, stainless steel appliances and luxurious granite countertops. The two-level island offers an eating area as well as an impressive built in wine rack that can hold up to 35 bottles. This kitchen is designed to be functional while appealing to the connoisseur in all of us. The large eating nook is surrounded by huge windows and a door out onto the deck; an open invitation to enjoy the fresh morning air, the warm afternoon sun or a glowing sunset in the evening. The main floor of the Springbank is a beautiful open-concept plan; however the upper level is just as appealing as the rest of this home.

When going upstairs, you are greeted by a split staircase which leads to a large bonus room as well as the bedrooms. The bonus room is visible from the open-to-below upstairs landing and it is an open and bright room due to its abundant windows. The vaulted ceilings and huge skylights also ensure that this is one of the brightest rooms in the home. The corner fireplace with its earthy stone work compliments the hardwood floors and creates a cozy atmosphere.

Across from the bonus room, the spacious master bedroom offers both a large walk-in closet and a great ensuite. The luxurious soaker tub with tile surround, and the ‘his and her’ basin-style sinks add a touch of elegance as well as looking very inviting.  Of course the glass shower stall, large window, and huge vanity mirror also add to the appeal of this fabulous ensuite. The two secondary bedrooms in this show home offer unique features as well, such as the recessed window seating in the girl’s room, and the built-in wall desk and cabinets in the boy’s room. The whole design of the Springbank is aimed at pleasing everyone in the household.

The Springbank show home offers more than just a beautiful floor plan and great design features however, it also offers a great location. This SW community offers luxury estate living with one of the country’s largest natural urban parks right in its backyard. Evergreen Estates borders Fish Creek Provincial Park to the North and West, offering residents a natural setting, numerous nature trails and pathways from and through the community.
