This is the future story of a way of mountain life as new and as exhilarating as fresh fallen snow. From the top of the mountain, looking down on the resort and the glacial plain that extends to the shore of Georgian Bay, you gain both a whole new perspective of Windfall and a greater appreciation for just how special this property is. When seen from the mountaintop it’s clear how imaginatively the land has been segmented into small pockets of comfortable homes wrapped in glades of trees. Indeed, from this viewpoint, it’s surprising to see how much of Windfall is green, almost half of it to be exact. Tree-lined Crosswinds Boulevard winds from south to north through the neighbourhood. There are parks of all sizes, a large nature preserve, a restored wetland and an emerald canopy of trees and shrubs that encircles the site and shields it from County Road 19. And what is also apparent from the top of Blue is the proximity of Windfall to the lifts and the mountain village. The first offering at Windfall is a collection of 37 single-family homes with the kind of features you would expect of a mountain retreat – and others that will come as a pleasant surprise. Covered verandas. Fireplaces. Open living-entertaining spaces. A lower loft. An abundance of natural light. A large deck garden that becomes an outdoor living room. Imaginative landscaping utilizing plant species native to the Niagara Escarpment. Details like these make Windfall a true experience of mountain life. There are few places on this planet where your home faces a mountain and you have an enormous freshwater bay with its 30,000-plus islands at your back. It is what city dwellers dream of: life as nature intended it.
