Ashton Ridge Homes Announces Final Phase in Rockwood, Ontario

Friday, April 25, 2008

Join Ashton Ridge Homes for their final phase of the Upper Ridge in Rockwood.  Rockwood Ridge offers a neighborhood where little things count; small town security, where people know each other by name, and a beautiful natural setting.

From the minute you enter you start to unwind.  You notice garages tucked into or behind the home.  Classic Victorian facades with big front porches set close to the street offer the most welcoming curb appeal. All this surrounded by magnificent views and a beautiful forested ridge.

The environmentally friendly master plan contains over 25% of open space.  Century old stone walls and hedgerows, woodlots, parks, and ponds are scattered throughout Rockwood Village and its’ enclaves.  A continuous pedestrian trail system throughout the site has taken shape with the trailhead located at the main entrance.

If you love nature, you’ll be right at home on the Upper Ridge.

Ashton Ridge Homes prides itself on building luxurious, affordable homes for all – from first time home buyers to families and even active adults.  Ashton Ridge Homes has united the needs of homeowners to create an amazing community.

Only five single family – two storey homes on 50 foot lots are left.  These beautiful family homes carry three or four bedrooms. In addition, Ashton Ridge Homes has developed Luxury, Platinum and Diamond Series upgrade packages which can be added to any of the homes.  With the prices starting in the low $300,000s, it’s easy to see the affordability factor. A few walkout and treed lots are still available to those who act quickly.        

The final phase is also offering luxury town homes with a variety of sizes and designs.  All town homes are over 1500 square feet and start in the mid $200,000s.  You also have the option to add a finished walkout basement.

There is a beautifully appointed model home to tour at Rockwood Ridge and of course, while you are in the area, enjoy the relaxed pace and friendly atmosphere only a small town can offer.  Located in the center of one of Southern Ontario’s most diverse regions, our community is just minutes from anything you want to buy, do or enjoy.  Teeing up on a championship golf course, enjoying the recreation activities at the Conservation Area, a full range of shopping and an endless calendar of festivals and events are all available close to Rockwood Ridge. 

Rockwood is located just 15 minutes from downtown Guelph which offers a full array of shopping, medical, educational and recreational amenities.  It is also 15 minutes to Georgetown and the Georgetown Go Station. Highway 401, Milton and the Milton Go Station is only a short 20 minute commute away.

To visit Rockwood Ridge – Take 401 to Highway 25 north.  Go west on Hwy. #7 and the Sales Center will be on your right hand side once you enter Rockwood.  Alternatively, take Guelph Line to Eramosa County Road 32, turn right and continue to the end, turn left on to Highway #7.  Continue one mile.  On your right, you will see the Rockwood Ridge signage.  Hours are Mon-Thur from 2-7; Fri and Weekends 12:00-5.
