Life in the heart of Airdrie

If you’re looking to own a brand-new, spacious townhome with a boutique feel and established amenities nearby, you could find your new home in Midtown.

The Towns development by Shane Multi Family features 1,645-sq.-ft. townhomes with three or four bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, a double attached garage, and balcony.

Construction of the development should be complete by the fall and possessions are already taking place, says Karen McDonald, area manager with Shane Multi Family. The three-level townhomes have a starting price of $450,000, before GST, and are available in two different floorplans, called the Oak and the Stone.

“We’ve just opened up our brand-new Oak show home,” says McDonald. “It provides a really good eye for the efficiency of space that we have. We’ve taken our additional 330 sq. ft. on the main entryway floor and we have added a fourth bedroom with a walk-in closet. This could also be used as a den space.”

McDonald says the majority of buyers moving into these homes are young families and people looking to downsize, or are just wanting to have the maintenance-free lifestyle that comes with owning a townhome.

“Midtown is wonderful because it’s in the heart of Airdrie,” McDonald says. “The benefit of that for our homeowners is that, typically with a multi-family development, they would have to wait for all of the amenities and for retail to get developed. But, with Midtown, people don’t have to wait for everything to come together. It’s already finished.”

There are plenty of retail spaces and amenities within walking distance of The Towns, which boosts property value, says McDonald. Playgrounds and walking spaces are located nearby, too, as well as an off-leash dog park right inside the community.

Shane Multi Family is a family-owned business that provides exceptional customer experience and offers an additional two years of home warranty, she says. The company also promotes a “yell test” to show buyers the shared wall keeps peace between neighbours.

“We really believe in our townhomes,” says McDonald. “Midtown is such a beautiful area. We encourage people to come out and see what we’ve got.”

Show home hours are Monday to Thursday from 2 to 8 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 12 to 5 p.m.
