Legacy offers families more room to grow and thrive in the Village of Ayr. The first phase of the master-planned community by Tice River Homes is now previewing, with options ranging from semi-detached homes to single-detached homes on 36′ and 40′ lots. Priced from the high-$400,000s, Legacy promises incredible value and a 10-minute commute time to Highway 401.

While the first release features a total of 27 lots, the full community will include around 400 homes with a landscaped central park and multi-use trails. This current release is made up of three- and four-bedroom floorplans that range from 1,667 to 2,787 square feet. Semi-detached homes boast great rooms with optional gas fireplaces, ground floor powder rooms, elongated kitchen islands, flow-through or closed-off dining rooms, and single-car garages, as per plan.

Priced from $569,900, the 36’ single-family homes feature three- to four-bedrooms and two-and-a-half to three-and-a-half bathrooms. Interiors are airy and open, complete with versatile L-shaped kitchens, convenient second floor laundry rooms, and master retreats with walk-in closets, double-sink vanities and relaxing soaker tubs, as per plan.

Families seeking larger backyards for children to play in or summertime barbecues will want to check out the 40’ singles, starting from $644,990. These sprawling residences offer four bedrooms and a three-and-a-half bathrooms with handy mud rooms, kitchens with breakfast areas, open living and dining spaces, and flexible dens that could be used as a home office, library or kids’ playroom.

Legacy is just a short walk or drive from downtown Ayr, which is home to a handful of tasty restaurants, locally-owned shops and businesses, as well as a public library branch. The nearby newly-constructed Ayr Community Centre offers an ice arena, walking track, soccer fields, playground and spray pad, plus recreational programming for children and adults.

Cedar Creek Public School is within walking distance of Legacy, and St. Brigid Catholic Elementary School is a brand new facility that opened earlier this year. Just 10 minutes from Highway 401, Ayr offers all the benefits of small-town living with convenient access to major city centres such as Cambridge, Kitchener, Brantford, London and Toronto.

Those with daily commutes to the GTA likely haven’t considered this tight-knit community of only 4,200 residents, but the Village of Ayr offers similar travel times to new projects being built in Kitchener, Breslau and Fergus for a better overall value.

Register online and visit the Legacy model home and presentation centre at 173 Hilltop Drive in Ayr. Opening hours are Monday from 2pm to 7pm, Tuesday and Wednesday from 4pm to 7pm, and weekends from 1pm to 5pm. Due to construction on Swan Street, visitors will have to follow a detour route to get to the sales centre.
