Family Friendly

sabal homes sets the standard in Airdrie

“And our homes often have front porches, so people can sit out front and get to know their neighbours more,” adds Milne.

Functionality is key. “Our vision is to be recognized as one of the most innovative in home design,” says Milne as a tour of Sabal’s Reunion showhome reaches the kitchen. “For example, this floor plan is based on maintaining an open-concept feel, but maintaining a functional room.

“We know this is a family-oriented community, so it’s little things like putting kitchen windows at the back [over the sink], so you can watch your children play.”

Sabal also strives to provide options for environmentally friendly living. For example, Milne says, some Reunion buyers had an entrance locker area, featured in some of the plans, converted into areas to sort materials for recycling.

Milne says that with many homes left to build in Reunion, Sabal will be part of the Airdrie community for a while, supporting local events such as the Airdrie Tykes Hockey Tournament.
