homeowners can experience first-

that will make life more enjoyable
and convenient!

wood conmmurity by InSight Develop-
ment Corporition cerlainky: proves this
true. It began with Antbleside, the com-
munity’s first ‘sold out” residential
phase built around a spectacular lake.
Then continued with Carisbrooke, the
just-released collection of 63 homes
offering enticing mountain views of
Mount Benson and Mount Arrowsmith.

residences already enjay access to Long:
wood House, an 8,000 square foot lake-
front clubhouse built in the inviting arts-
and-cratts tradition. it’s a busy place.

library, and full kitchen have already
played host to numerous gatherings
including afternoon teas, Christmas
receptions, and special celebrations.

Homeowners Give Thumbs Up

A measure of the community's success
is the close relationship between
the developer and the homeowners.
Judi Bledsoe, chairperson of the strata
council moved into her Ambleside
lakeside home last July.

What sold her on Longwood?
Judi answers without hesitation: “The
quatity of construction. The building
and the landscaping were just great.
I'd looked at a lot of condos before
[ bought here. I've been so impressed
with the InSight team. They're always
available and have bent over back-
wards to meet all our needs.”

Maxine and Jack Higgins moved
to the Longwood community from their
Cobble Hill home last August and
haven't looked back. “We love the rural
feel of it,” says Maxine.

“We face the little

lake, we can get

out and walk and generally feel we're in
the countryside. And when | miss my
garden, | just go out and deadhead a
few flowers—it gives us the feeling of

having our own yard.”
