This four-season resort lifestyle community by Hopewell Residential Communities took home the Best New Community award at the 2009 SAM Awards, and what better way to cap off the win than by debuting Sabal Homes’ laned home products in what is shaping up to be the neighbourhood of choice in southeast Calgary .

Demand for Sabal’s exclusive laned home collection has been steadily peaking since they were introduced in nearby Copperfield in October, and the anticipation for their release in Mahogany has been building. And soon the wait will finally be over.

“They have been a big hit in Calgary and Edmonton, and the success of these home designs, uncommonly stylish interior selections, and community location make these homes enormously desirable –so desirable, in fact, that we are making them available for pre-sale in Mahogany on May 15, just to meet the tremendous demand,” says Kendra Milne, Sabal’s Marketing Manager.

“Sabal’s pre-sale collection of laned homes in Mahogany is handpicked to satisfy a buyer’s style, and design choices,” she adds. “We see it as the perfect opportunity for buyers to get into this exclusive urban resort lifestyle at a lower price point.”

“Hopewell is excited to add Sabal’s laned homes to Mahogany’s award-winning line-up,” adds Scott Hamilton, sales and marketing manager for Hopewell Residential Communities. “With Mahogany’s dynamic lifestyle, stylish architecture and value for homeowners throughout the community, these new laned homes will be a runaway hit. We see a pent-up demand for exactly these kinds of floorplans and are anxious to introduce them to Calgary’s ‘Best New Community’.”

Sabal’s laned homes in Mahogany range in size from 1,279 square-feet to 1,704 square-feet. These new Mahogany home designs offer an incomparable list of chic standard features, including the convenience of Sabal’s 6,000-square-foot designSense Studio — to customize the look for the interior of the home. With prices starting in the $320,000s, Sabal’s laned-style homes bring more joy per square foot to each homeowner, and are sure to make a strong impression on the Mahogany streetscape.

Six of Sabal’s most popular and award-winning home designs, including Ovation and Axiom, are in the Mahogany line-up. “They will feature the French Country and Arts and Crafts elevations that has made Mahogany famous.

Most of the homes will be moved further towards the front to allow for a bigger backyard,” Milne says.

Standard interior features showcased in this offering include exclusive cabinetry styles in the customer’s choice of colour and wood type, six appliances, pot and pan drawers in the kitchen, chrome fixtures and hardware, two-and-a-quarter-inch flat-profile baseboards and casings and 35-ounce carpet.

Their location in Mahogany, however, is the biggest draw, Milne admits. Centered around the city’s largest freshwater lake, Mahogany presents a relaxed urban vacation lifestyle, it’s like going home to a vacation everyday. This exciting new community will have an extraordinary mix of homes, unique shops, restaurants, 265 acres of parks, wetlands and countless public open spaces and friendly streets to explore - all of which will turn neighbours into friends and families into generations.

Milne says Sabal’s exclusive laned show homes will open by spring 2011, but she advises it will be wise to get in beforehand. “This pre-sales opportunity is the best chance to get the best lots in Mahogany, there are premium lots still available that are within walking distance to the lake and surrounded by executive estate homes, which are guaranteed to be snapped up very quickly.”

Sabal Homes, the uncommonly stylish home builder, works towards being a leader in the homebuilding industry for bringing value and enjoyment through home design, innovation, and a memorable home building experience. Building for more than 15 years, Sabal is not set in its ways — always pushing forward to create some of the most innovative homes and customer experiences in the industry.
