Description
A great home isn't measured by how much space you have, but by how well that space works for the life you're building. The Birmingham was designed with exactly that in mind. Part of our Essentials Collection, this thoughtfully planned home offers 1,455 square feet, 4 bedrooms, and 1.5 bathrooms, bringing together the space families need with a price that makes brand-new homeownership feel within reach. Step inside and the main floor immediately feels connected. The open-concept living room and eat-in kitchen create an easy, comfortable space for everyday life — morning coffee at the table, busy weeknight dinners, movie nights on the couch, and friends gathered around the kitchen. With a carpet-free main floor, the space is practical, easy to maintain, and ready for everything that comes with a busy household. Inside entry from the attached garage makes groceries, backpacks, winter boots, and everyday comings and goings that much easier. Upstairs, four bedrooms give everyone room to settle in. Fill them with family, turn one into an office, create a guest room, or finally have space dedicated to the hobbies and interests that tend to take over the kitchen table. The Essentials Collection is about being intentional. We've focused on the features that matter most, simplified where it makes sense, and created homes that deliver the benefits of new construction at a more approachable price point. You'll still have the opportunity to choose from available finishes, colours, cabinetry, flooring, and upgrades, giving you the chance to put your own stamp on the home before you ever move in.

Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Land Transfer Tax is the Ontario provincial schedule, before any first-time buyer refund; only the City of Toronto charges a municipal land transfer tax on top, so none applies in the areas this site covers (Ontario Ministry of Finance, ontario.ca/document/land-transfer-tax, as of October 28, 2026). Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
