A waterfront paradise on Frenchman’s Bay

Are you ready to indulge yourself so completely?

Living on the water offers a certain lifestyle. Waterfront views are beautiful and soothing. For some, the boating life is the only life, for others, living the resort lifestyle is paramount. The leisure of cottage living, the convenience of city access, the quiet of a small neighbourhood, Marshall Homes’ Frenchman’s Bay Village is a community that understands. It’s got easy access to all of the urban amenities of Pickering, but the community will seem like it’s a world away from the urban pace. Situated at the base of Liverpool Road, right on the bay, the community has been designed as a waterside village. The marina, the Fairport Yacht Club, the gorgeous townhomes with a view of the bay; every detail offers the promise of comfort and leisure, allowing residents to indulge in the lifestyle they’re after.

Marshall Homes has created an ideal community for this lifestyle. Limited to only 66 townhomes, residents will be able to be on the water within moments of coming home. This innovative builder has reserved 66 docks in the marina and they are only available for purchase by homebuyers. The ‘dockominiums’ are the answer for boaters who are tired of leaving the marina for the long drive home, always disappointed at never having quite enough time to spend on the water.

Plus Frenchman’s Bay Village residents who purchase a dockominium automatically become members of The Fairport Yacht Club, with access to the clubhouse facilities, including storage lockers, change rooms, showers, laundry and lounge. The staff of The Frenchman’s Bay Marina also offer all the services you expect from a modern marina, such as launching and storage, repairs and engine servicing. As of this year, the docks are undergoing an upgrading program and state-of-the-art facilities will be added including card access security gates, full electrical power outlets and water hookups and dock side storage boxes.

But landlubbers have not been left out. At Frenchman’s Bay Village, the marina is only one of the impressive amenities of this waterfront community. Homebuyers are in no way obligated to buy a dockominium if they don’t need one. The Fairport Yacht Club is right in the community and brings the resort lifestyle to you with membership. You can stroll the boardwalk and enjoy the beach. The community features a pool for the exclusive use of residents.

The homes of Frenchman’s Bay Village are designed to reflect the lifestyle and needs of residents. Even from the exterior architecture featured here you can see the difference. Charming streetscapes reminiscent of east coast villages, the two- and three-storey townhomes offer features like upper level lookouts, rooftop decks and cupolas. Homes include numerous windows, taking advantage of the phenomenal views to the fullest.

Designs and finishes offer great variation, enabling you to find a home which feels custom-designed to suit your needs. Ranging from 1,405 to 3,001 sq. ft., these homes include some very innovative designs and offer homebuyers a choice of three fabulous appointment packages: Silver, Gold or Platinum. Silver includes a handsome selection of fine standard features including imported ceramic tile flooring and 35 oz. broadloom, a fireplace with white painted mantle with marble insert, natural oak railings and pickets, and 9 ft. main floor ceilings.

The additional features with Gold include a Whirlpool appliance package in the kitchen and also a washer/dryer set, oak flooring in the Great Room and the main staircase in oak, and a gas outlet for a barbecue. Upgrading to Platinum offers additional high-end appointments such as a Sub Zero refrigerator, Thermador slide-in range, Panasonic Genius over-the-range microwave, Bosch dishwasher, central air, Maytag high-efficiency stacked front loader washer/dryer, upgraded fixtures, cultured marble tub shower and countertops with sink in master ensuite, and an installed central vac among numerous other luxurious features and accessories.

The layout of these homes are quite unusual. Numerous balconies, walkouts and rooftop decks are used liberally throughout all of these plans. The TH 6 design uses the main floor for a kitchen and dining area with a Great Room ceiling that is open to above, soaring a full two stories. A laundry room and two bedrooms, each with an ensuite, occupy the second floor. The third floor loft is a master bedroom with a gorgeous ensuite and massive walk-in closet.

A small number of homes have the ability to use the main floor for business space. Designs like the TH 2 reflect this, with a large, spacious room on the ground floor. The second floor features the dining room, Great Room, kitchen and a bedroom/den. The third floor holds the master bedroom with his and hers walk-ins and ensuite, as well as a third bedroom and the laundry room.

A unique design, the TH 4 is a two-storey home which offers the ease of main floor living. One half of the ground floor is the master bedroom with walk-in and ensuite, while the kitchen, dining room and Great Room make up the other half. The laundry, a second bedroom and a media loft occupy the second floor.

And still others are designed to indulge residents withsublime qualities. The TH 3 uses a traditional layout, with common rooms on the main floor and all bedrooms on the second floor. This leaves the third floor free to utilize as the entertainment loft, fitness studio, hot tub/spa and billiard room, complete with wetbar, full bathroom and walkout to a rooftop deck. Now that’s living!

Boater or landlubber, Frenchman’s Bay Village is quite irresistible. The question is, are you ready to indulge yourself so completely?
