COMMUNITY PROFILE
THORNHILL AND RICHMOND HILL Bursting with residential appeal in York Region!
Dorothea Helms Connects people and ideas, and can be reached at writer@wsws.ca
“Location, location, location” still tops the must-have lists of most new home shoppers, and of course, that means different things for different people. In York Region, the choices are diverse and outstanding, and Richmond Hill and Thornhill are among the most popular residential destinations for new home buyers of all ages. Discover quality of life that encompasses everything from sports to culture, education to entertainment, plus activities, opportunities and interest groups. If you are shopping for a new home, be sure to explore all these special locations have to offer. Richmond Hill There’s always something interesting and exciting going on in Richmond Hill, which is ideally situated at the geographic centre of the Greater Toronto Area. The Town offers an enviable quality of life in many ways. For example, did you know that Richmond Hill’s drinking water received perfect marks in the recent inspection rating by the Ministry of the Environment? And that the Town’s efforts to protect the natural environment are an ongoing success? And that Council is taking steps to accommodate recommendations from the Museum Feasibility Study to ensure Richmond Hill’s rich history and heritage will remain protected and accessible for future generations? The Town is bisected by Yonge Street. Residents also live within easy reach of Highways 404, ETR 407 and 7, and are served by York Region Transit, VIVA and GO Transit. In north Richmond Hill, The Oak Ridges area features urban amenities including the fabulous Oak Ridges Community Centre on the Lake Wilcox waterfront, and the dynamic Lois Hancey Aquatic Centre. As well as four local championship courses, golfers can access dozens of other easily. To find out more, visit www. richmondhill.ca, where you can download the brochure “All About Richmond Hill.”

The streets of historic Thornhill will be the scene of trade booths, a beer garden, variety of food, great music, and fun rides and activities for kids and teens.

Thornhill caters to the needs of a growing population with several community centres and recreation facilities within a small radius.

The 181 unit, eightfloor GEM II is one of Canada’s largest Net Zero projects ever to be built. And the project is made ‘greener’ still, thanks to Del Ridge Homes’ new GreenLife Woods initiative that involves planting 140,000 trees in partnership with Forest Ontario. “GEM II is the ultimate feel good condominiumprojectforhomeowners,” observes Del Ridge Homes partner Dave De Sylva. “These homes have a zero carbon footprint. They’re affordable. Your monthly heating and maintenance costs are about 1/5th of a similar building built to code. And yet they’re stylish and carefully designed inside and out. It’s no wonder our last project (GEM I) sold so quickly.” As with GEM I, GEM II achieves Net Zero thanks in large part to a combination of extremely high R Values for insulation, triple-glazed fiberglass windows, a self-contained geothermal system for heating and cooling and 400,000 watts of solar PV panels on the roof.
With 1-3 bedroom, 700-1,245 sq. ft. homes starting at $247,900 and annual condo fee and energy bill savings of several thousands a year, GEM II makes it easier to own a home and pay it off sooner,” observes De Sylva. Del Ridge Homes also offers all of the top finishing features that discerning consumers have come to expect. Outside, this includes a stone and brick exterior and balconies with decorative railings. Interior features include: kitchens and baths with choice of granite or marble counter tops; kitchens with double stainless steel under-mounted sinks and pull down spray faucets as well as stainless steel fridge, stove, dishwasher and over the counter microwave. GEM II owners also benefit from the use of onsite common areas, which include a games room, an exercise room and an amenity/event room. Areas that contribute to the quality of living, without significantly adding to monthly maintenance costs. To learn more about GEM II, prospective purchasers are encouraged to register online at www.delridgehomes.com or call 905-479-5448 or 1-877-479-5448.
