The house we are looking at is excellent, meets most of our requirements except the farm issue. i read online the farm has been sold, but the fact is its still operational and when it seizes to operate no one knows. .
Spoke to a friends friend who lives in area, said yes stink is there every 2-3 weeks when barn is cleaned or vented, mostly at night, one has to close the windows, more frequent in summers.
And then there are those who live right across the barn and say what smell?
so confusing.... still thinking
I agree ... The homes Mattamy is building there are excellent. My client just bought the waterford model on Bartleman Terrace, and it end up costing them the same as a 2 yr old resale model today.
However, if you were my client and the home was perfect but you couldn't get over an issue with the location, I would have to advise you to find another home in a more suitable location.
I don't know how soon you need to be moved into a new home, however, if you have time on your side then you definitely have a few options:
1) Mattamy is said to have another release south of LSL late this year or early next year. I would confirm with the sales office though.
2) Great Gulf has a release at Britannia and Tremaine Spring 2015
3) the same models you are looking at are being built off of James Snow and at another site at Bronte and Farmstead. Most likely a few homes in those subdivisions will hit the Market shortly after they are complete. If you need help with this option I would be glad to help out.
Good luck with your decision and feel free to reach out anytime if you have questions or need a hand.
