As you walk into 102 Lou Peltier Crescent you have the choice of walking up or down reminiscent of a split level, although this home is quite different. Off to the left of the main entrance is a main floor washer/dryer. Walking up, one notices the high ceilings giving the home a grand feel. To the right is a great dining room with an incredible spacious feel about it. Toward the back of the house, one finds the spacious kitchen and very functional family room both overlooking the backyard. As you go up another level, you begin to realize that this home is special. At the first landing, you come across the master bedroom with great ensuite. Continuing up again, you find two additional bedrooms and a full bath with the hallway overlooking the family room. I really liked the various levels of the house, though the house itself probably has the same number of stairs as any two story, the unique multi-level design really sets it apart. Combined with the high ceilings found through, this is a really unique house that deserves a look.

98 Lou Peltier Crescent - Kildonan Green
Builder: Randall Homes
Base Price: $285,619 Plus GST and Land
Type: 2-Storey
The first thing I noticed walking up to 98 Lou Peltier Crescent was the small porch on the front of the house. I like this feature as the house is west facing, allowing for a great vantage point to watch the sunset. Walking in to the house, there is a carpeted dining room off to the left which you walk past to get to the kitchen. The kitchen is very spacious and open to the family room. I particularily like the tiles chosen for the backsplash. The family room is separated from the kitchen by a short, functional shelving unit and is more than large enough for a family to gather around the TV or the fantastic fireplace/mantle setup. Past the family room there is a half bath and laundry facilities on the main floor.
Moving up the carpeted stairs, one finds a nice loft space. I like the idea of upper loft space as it adds an interesting functional element to the upstairs. In many new homes, the loft space can be converted to an extra bedroom during the design phase, but if possible, I would opt for the loft over the additional bedroom. In addition to the loft, this home features three bedrooms including a large master with and equally impressive ensuite. The ensuite in 98 Lou Peltier is considerably larger than what you typically see in many new homes. The upstairs rounds out with two nicely-sized bedrooms and a full bath.
The base is framed and ready to finish. Great use of space and some unique design elements make this a house to consider.

3 Tommy Douglas Drive - Kildonan Green
Builder: Randall Homes
Selling Price: $280,911 Plus GST and Land
Type: Condo
The day I visited 3 Tommy Douglas Drive was a gloriously sunny autumn day. As I walked up the driveway, the surrounding area came alive with autumn colours, the sunshine, and children coming home from school. It is really quite a nice setting and a great way to start off my visit. Upon entering the condo, immediately to my right was a large living room with a great mantle/fireplace. Being an end unit facing west, the sun shone through the side windows creating a bright atmosphere within the condo. The kitchen is open to the eating area and looks out over the ample backyard.
Moving upstairs, I noticed the custom paint on the landing wall thinking it was nice touch. There are three bedrooms on the upper floor including the nice-sized master. The master bedroom feature some custom paint on its wall as well. Rounding out the upper floor is a full bath and laundry.
There is an unfinished basement framed and ready for somebody to put their personal touched on. For a condo, there is much more living space than I would have thought. The expansive space combined with the great location make this a condo to see.

90 Lou Peltier Crescent - Kildonan Green
Builder: Ventura Custom Homes
Selling Price: $229,909 Plus GST and Land
Type: Bi-Level
90 Lou Peltier Crescent is a split level, so upon entering I ventured downstairs and I was greeted by a large air hockey table. I thought this was a fantastic addition as right away I thought the house was fun and being downstairs I pictured the open space as a great games/entertainment area. Rounding out the downstairs was a nice sized office/bedroom and a full bath. The downstairs space is open and functional – good for entertaining and children alike.
Moving upstairs, there is a larger living room to the left. The vaulted ceilings give the room an impressive feel. Entering the kitchen, the vaulted ceilings and great backyard view create a spacious feel making the kitchen feel like a destination spot within the house. The house features three bedrooms, with master offering a large full ensuite. There is another full bathroom on the floor making this the perfect house for small families or empty nesters alike.

106 Lou Peltier Crescent - Kildonan Green
Builder: Broadview Homes
Selling Price: $268,720 Plus GST and Land
Type: 2-Storey
The first thing I noticed walking into 106 Lou Peltier Crescent was the dark brown hardwood floors, so right away I liked the aesthetic. Off to the left of the entrance is a room currently being used as the sales desk but could/would be a nice living room. The home has high, nine foot ceilings which really become apparent when you walk into the open kitchen family room. The ceiling height provides a very spacious feeling to the space. The dark brown kitchen cabinets match the overall aesthetic perfectly. The house is decorated beautifully as well, with well appointed furniture and accessories. The kitchen looks out over a larger than expected backyard – perfectly sized for children.
As one moves upstairs, the hardwood makes way to carpeting. There are four bedrooms including a nice-sized master with full ensuite. The doors to the master bedroom feature glass inlays making for a great look. The three subsequent bedrooms are amply sized and the second floor rounded out by a full bathroom. I really liked the white subway tile used for the bathtub/shower. Great look.
For a house of its size, Broadview Homes has really maximized the space and created a comfortable, open environment that would work extremely well for most families.

86 Lou Peltier Crescent - Kildonan Green
Builder: Hilton Custom Homes
Selling Price: $264,467 Plus GST and Land
Type: Bi-Level/Cab-Over
Hilton Homes must have built the ‘Ashwood VI-B’ - 3 bedroom, 1660 sq. ft. bi-level with privacy in mind for the occupants of the master suite. Quite possibly for a family with teenage or older children. Double columns mark the front of this home and stained glass is featured in the panels of the entry door. The main entry door opens into the foyer and is immediately adjacent to the entry door from the garage. Beside those doors is a closet.
As you move further into the entry way, you encounter two stairways one leading into the main level and living area and one to the basement/lower level. The lower area has been insulated and has some roughed-in plumbing plus the furnace, water heater and electrical panel. Room to grow for the new owners.
Once into the central hallway on the first or main level on the right hand side, you will find in a separated section two bedrooms and a full bathroom. Along the top of the hallway wall bordering those bedrooms, there is a ‘plant ledge’ where the residents could place plants, pieces of art or other treasures. On your left is the formal dining room which features a large window that faces the front street. A room large enough for a big table and chairs and a cantilevered space for a china cabinet or hutch. Hardwood flooring in the dining room is optional. On the top of its back wall is another long ‘plant ledge’.
Continuing down the central hallway, you will find the great room, the kitchen and an informal eating space. The ceilings are ‘popcorn’ or stippled in neutral tones. The 13 ft. by 19 ft. (approximately) great room is spacious and made even more so by the huge triple window along its rear wall (facing the backyard). Depending on what buyers prefer, this room can include a gas fireplace and/or a built-in entertainment unit that provides several cubby holes or shelves to display or store electronics. There is plenty of wall space for a large flat screen television.
The dinette or informal eating area is between the great room and the kitchen. A table for 4 would easily fit into this space. Buyers would have the option of flat windows in the wall behind it or a bay window which would add to the price of the home. The back door is adjacent to this part of the home.
The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, maple cabinets, a large pantry closet, double stainless steel sinks and an island where food preparation can be done with cupboards underneath and room to put a couple of stools on its edge. Put all three spaces together and you have a gracious, comfortable, roomy area for the owners, their family and their friends to gather.
One of the features of this property is seven steps up from the main level - the master bedroom, its walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom. It’s a space unto itself. The bedroom part is very large. enough to fit a king-size bed and several pieces of furniture. There are two big windows facing the street. Built right under these windows is a long window seat with a view to oversee how the ‘Green’ is growing and flourishing. The bathroom has two sinks, some cupboards, a ceramic shower surround and a casement window in between the vanity and the toilet.
The living space in this house is very appealing. Many little extras that it has would help make it ‘home sweet home’.

94 Lou Peltier Crescent - Kildonan Green
Builder: A & S Homes
Selling Price: $274,900 Plus GST and Land
Type: 2-Storey
The “New Castle II’ is a two storey home with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths with a double car garage. As with another home from A & S, there was a friendly greeting to those attending the Parade of Homes with a huge green ribbon and bow stretched across the double door of the garage. The front facade included two tall columns leading up to the entrance.
Once inside the front door, there was a coat closet at hand. Overhead was an elegant chandelier. To one side, there was a curved wood railing beyond which was the formal dining room. The 9 ft. ceilings in this home make the rooms feel bigger and more open. There is a large window in this dining room facing toward the front street. It can comfortably accommodate a large table and chairs.
If entering through the garage, you would be walking into the mud room with a coat closet and the washer and dryer. There is a two-piece powder room in that ‘back’ hallway which goes into the central hall.
The rear area of the main level includes the kitchen and an eating area beside it, plus the great room directly opposite. There is a double stainless steel sink right under a large window overlooking the backyard. All the appliances are stainless steel and the stove in this show home featured a five element top. The cupboards and cabinets are all oak and the countertops are granite. There is a walk-in pantry with a light that turns on when you open the door and turns off when you close the door. Especially handy when your hands are full of things to put in or take out of that area. Simple, but genius! The island in the kitchen had ample space as a work area plus room for stools at its edge, cupboards and electrical outlets for using small appliances. Also included at one end of the counter was a small ‘desk’ space for a telephone and perhaps some cookbooks.
The eating area next to the kitchen had ample space for a table and chairs, plus lots of light from the windows along the back wall. The door to the backyard is found right beside it. While having a meal, the residents can enjoy surveying their property and the seasons of the year go by.
The great room featured several built-ins with a gas fireplace and a built-in entertainment centre, which made more display space for accessories or electronic equipment. The huge window in this space made this room ‘the’ place for the residents of this home to gather. It was easy to visualize celebrating special occasions in such a cozy, ‘warm’ room.
Special mention needs to be made of all the niches, shelves and extra spots that are found in this home. For buyers who love their knickknacks and treasures and pieces of art, you will have plenty of room to display them all.
Upstairs, about half the sq. footage is apportioned to the master bedroom, its walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom. The bedroom itself has two windows framing the bed plus the closet. The decor was tasteful and the colours neutral. Plenty of room for a king-size bed and a large dresser and bureau! The bathroom was very well designed. It has a big jacuzzi tub, a separate shower area plus a good amount of cupboard space. The rest of the second level included two more bedrooms with roomy closets, a full bathroom and linen storage.
The lower level of this home has the furnace, water heater, electrical panel and a large space where future rooms can be built.
