Baywood Homes and Fandor Homes Officially Open
Barrie's Newest Community

Toronto, ON. October 27, 2004 - Baywood Homes and Fandor Homes officially opened their joint community project, Hamptons on Big Bay Point, with the help of local Councillor Adam Smith, while scores of families analyzed lots, floorplans and free upgrades.

Hamptons, a 567 home development, located near Kempenfelt Bay, is situated on Big Bay Point Road, just west of Yonge Street, on the south side, and is comprised of single family bungalows and two-story homes on 40’ and 50’ lots.  It is situated in a woodland community in a one-of-a-kind neighbourhood.  The all-natural setting is nestled beside miles of pathways and forests.  Unique features include large gourmet kitchens, vaulted ceilings, decorative columns, niches and much more.

“I was thrilled to take part in this Official Opening Ceremony and very pleased to have these two high-quality builders building in our great City of Barrie,” said Councillor Adam Smith, Ward 1.  “This Hamptons community will become home to a lot of people already living in Barrie, and will draw others to our city from surrounding areas,” continues Smith.  “Congratulations to both Baywood Homes and Fandor Homes on what looks like a beautiful place to live.”

Hamptons on Big Bay Point is expected to draw many residents from the Greater Toronto Area as well as those from the City of Barrie itself, and its neighbouring towns.  Homebuyers from the GTA have been steadily contributing to the City of Barrie’s rapidly growing population by making Barrie their city of choice.  Buyers from the GTA are getting nearly twice the house in Barrie and are enjoying superior quality of life with their families.  This growth is an accumulative result of Barrie’s strong economic base, good stability in its labour force, all-time-low interest rates and quality housing at affordable prices. 

Just a 40-minute commute to Toronto, Barrie is a welcoming city that can also ‘hold its own’ in the areas of amenities and entertainment.  Residents are finding an elevated level of culture and nightlife in Barrie comparable to that found in and around the GTA.  
For a limited time, buyers can enjoy $20,000 in free upgrades including items such as nine foot ceilings, gas fireplace, whirlpool tub, hardwood flooring, vinyl casement windows, pot lights, upgraded trim, rounded corners and more.
