Minto Communities announced that its building 168 townhomes during the second phase of  its master-planned community The Heights of Harmony. The Oshawa-based master-planned community, spanning 97.5 acres, is catering to diverse family lifestyles.

Features describe flexible floor plans. Back-to-back townhomes (from 1,349 square feet to 1,628 square feet) have two- and three-bedroom options with front car garages and spacious balconies. Rear lane townhomes, proposed for larger families, begin at 1,886 square feet with front yards, double car garages and spacious driveways.

Homebuyers are promised an opportunity to upgrade and select from curated flex plans, including the option to include ground-floor bedrooms and other adaptable features in select models. They also have access to sustainable features with ENERGY STAR for New Homes certification, for about 20 per cent  better energy efficiency, and a high performance envelope for balanced indoor temperature and reduced heating and cooling needs.

The homes will be located near a brand new parkette and just north of phase one, off Harmony Road North. Both phases currently add 800 homes to North Oshawa’s Kedron neighbourhood.

Vince Santino, vice-president of development at Minto Communities GTA, spoke about the important of supporting multi-generational housing options amid the demand for flexible housing. “With Phase I, we saw that flex options gave new homebuyers piece of mind when it came to meeting their current and future housing needs,” he said. “With the launch of Phase II, our commitment to bringing these housing options to Durham Region continues. We have a strong pipeline of well-designed homes and look forward to bringing them to market, meeting population targets and growing this incredible community”.
