Do you live for weekends?
With this gorgeous community of new homes, you can live where you weekend.
Designed to maximize outdoor living and prioritize green space, the townhomes and single detached homes by local builder Granite Homes sit on generous lots, some a rare 177’-deep. You are surrounded by nature in a lush and tranquil setting.
You’re also just steps from vibrant downtown Elora—one of Canada’s most beautiful villages—with its charming restaurants, shops, and services. Known for being a warm community with an enviable lifestyle, this lovely area can now be home too.
The location is also the height of convenience, as you are just minutes from Guelph, Kitchener, and Waterloo. There is a state-of-the-art hospital and many amenities nearby, so everything you could need is close at hand.
Get out and explore the neighbourhood, taking advantage of the natural trails. Whether you like to hike for hours or prefer to wander through the shops downtown, there is something to offer in every direction.
Home designs and site plan details
Choose townhomes from the $700’s or single detached homes from the low $1.1M. There are also bungalofts and two-storey detached home designs available on 38’, 45’, and 50’ lots, including options for extra-deep lots.
The South River community, designed for outdoor living, is focused on the preservation and naturalization of the beautiful Elora countryside. You will love the mature trees, the thoughtful landscaping, and the manicured trails that surround the perimeter and connect the parks throughout the site. This is a community you can explore on foot or on a bike, meant to be enjoyed by all ages.
Two parks are planned for the community, offering a range of amenities for everyone to enjoy. One of the parks will feature an amphitheatre next to a scenic trail, creating a perfect spot for outdoor gatherings, evening performances, and leisurely walks. The other park will include a naturalized playground designed to encourage active play for children, while providing a welcoming space for neighbours to connect and pets to explore. Both parks aim to foster a sense of community and provide spaces for recreation and relaxation.
The South River model was recently recognized at the Ontario Home Builder Association’s Awards of Distinction, taking home the award for Best Model Home (2,501 sq ft and over).
This recognition highlights the company’s commitment to excellence in design, craftsmanship, and innovation. The award-winning model home showcases Granite Homes’ attention to detail, thoughtful layouts, and a perfect balance of style and functionality, offering a glimpse into the quality and comfort that defines South River.
What makes this community truly unique is the combination of thoughtfully designed homes and its close connection to nature. The variety of home designs—ranging from bungalows, bungalofts, two-storey single detached homes, and condo townhomes—ensures there’s a perfect fit for your lifestyle.
Each home features striking exteriors with meticulous attention to architectural details, while inside, the functional and well-planned layouts offer both comfort and style. Many premium features come included, elevating the living experience.
The community itself is nestled near nature, with easy access to trails and green spaces, while being just moments from a vibrant downtown, making it an ideal blend of tranquility and convenience.
