“Our ongoing dedication to making all our communities including Airdrie a better place to live and call home is a critical part of what makes Mattamy special.” — Careen Chrusch, marketing director, Mattamy Homes

Mattamy Homes is excited to bring more amenities to Airdrie with its expansion into Southwinds.

The builder has been welcoming Airdrie families into its homes for more than 15 years. In fact, Airdrie was the first Western Canadian community the Ontario company expanded into.

Mattamy is known for its WideLot™ homes featuring prominent front porches and pedestrian-friendly neighbourhoods with fewer homes on each street and extra space for on-street parking.

Southwinds is Mattamy’s third community in Airdrie. Prospective homebuyers have 23 floor plans to choose from, with attached and detached options.

But the real excitement lies in the amenities, says Mattamy Homes senior construction manager Jesse Carr.

“Southwinds will include a bike pump track, off-leash dog park, pickleball courts, new playgrounds and a continuation of the existing environmental pathway,” Carr says.

“The pathway extends north to meet up at Chinook Winds Park, a beloved Airdrie amenity including baseball diamonds, volleyball courts, a skate park and splash park.”

It made perfect sense for Mattamy to expand into Southwinds. The company purchased the land in partnership with the City of Airdrie and Rocky View Schools, and the community will be home to the future west Airdrie recreation centre and a new high school.

“Southwinds is an extension of Windsong — our first community in Alberta — and we’ve been fortunate enough to be able to extend the community throughout the southwest quadrant of Airdrie,” Carr says.

“The addition of the future rec centre and high school within our new community is an exciting opportunity to bring more amenities to all of our homeowners that have bought with us in Airdrie over the past 15 years.”

Adds Mattamy Sales marketing director, Careen Chrusch: “Our ongoing dedication to making all our communities including Airdrie a better place to live and call home is a critical part of what makes Mattamy special.”

Calgary sales manager Tracie Sartori says Mattamy is a leader in the home-building community and is committed to sustainability.

“We create communities that focus on what is important to our homeowners and cater to those who want to thrive in their home environment,” she says. “Our commitment to our clients and to the quality of every aspect of your journey is what keeps us going each day.”
