Avalon offers a new live-work experience

You’ve had an opportunity to test drive working from home during COVID-19, and Avalon is here to help you optimize the experience.

Living and working from home has never been easier or more affordable with this first-time offering in Airdrie.

Starting from the $250,000s, Avalon Master Builder’s ZEN Chinook Gate Live-Work Townhomes offer a bonus room on the main floor designed to run a business with no further permits required. Plus, up to 50 per cent of the floor space of the two-storey homes with undeveloped basements can be used for work.

“Creating a harmonious work-life balance can improve your physical, emotional and mental health,” says Marni Chenier, sales and marketing co-ordinator with Avalon. “Choosing a ZEN Chinook Gate home can help you achieve that.”

ZEN Live-Work Townhomes eliminate costly commercial leases and give you an energy-efficient dwelling for work and play.

Designed with entrepreneurs in mind, the floorplans are named for their potential owners: The Stylist, The Bookkeeper, The Artist and The Architect.

The largest home, The Stylist, features 1,455 square feet with three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, while the other floorplans are roughly 1,250 sq. ft. with two bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. All come with a private fenced backyard.

Live-Work Townhomes provide balance, coupling a warm, inviting place in which to live with a professional area conducive to business. There’s even the option to post a business sign and have up to two non-resident employees working.

The goal is to improve life-work balance. You regain control of your life and can plan a schedule that works best for you.

Eliminating your commute time also helps you avoid poor road conditions and lessen your carbon footprint.

For parents with young children, working from home reduces the need for child care and frees up time for recreational activities.

Interested buyers can book an in-person or virtual showhome tour. Avalon is only allowing one family group to view at a time, and cleaning after each showing to take care of its clients.

Alternatively, a salesperson can virtually walk you through the homes and answer any questions as if you were there in person. A tour of The Artist is also available here. Visit zenchinookgate.com for more details. life
