Three BIG ways Watercolour is remarkable.
At Watercolour, we’re creating an environment that enhances Westport. It’s a place where people feel connected to nature and each other.
We believe Watercolour is unlike any other community in Ontario. Here are three big ways Watercolour is different.
#1: Naturally Walkable
At Watercolour, we’ve given prominence to key natural features with 7 km of walking trails through linear parks following stream corridors and other protected natural features.
Everything is walkable. Every home is close to the beach and other natural amenities like Foley Mountain. A modified grid design makes the whole community accessible and predictable.
At Watercolour, residents get their home and cottage in one. Watercolour is within the Frontenac Arch Biosphere, a UNESCO World Heritage-recognized natural area. It is also within an easy drive of large urban centres when needed.
#2: People Thrive
The homes at Watercolour are designed smarter, not larger. The floor plan of every home is designed to suit the needs of families, without unnecessary sprawl.
Watercolour is within an easy walk of downtown Westport so residents can reduce their carbon footprint and the need to own a car. All their needs are close by. There’s a sense of place and community at Watercolour where people thrive together and create new things for the whole village to enjoy.
#3: Better Homes
Every home at Watercolour is Net Zero Ready. The homes are more comfortable, ultra-efficient, and healthier for homeowners than even new homes built to today’s building code. The community has been built with minimal disturbance by respecting the existing topography as much as possible.
Our homes keep an “old-village” feel with an intimate streetscape: big front porches and tree-lined boulevards. And high-speed fiber optic internet is in every home, making it easy to do remote work.
