Enhanced Privacy - Homes that back onto greenspace typically have no direct rear neighbours, enhancing privacy, reducing noise and creating a more secluded living environment.


Improved Views and Aesthetics - Greenspaces offer beautiful views of trees, fields, parks or ponds, much more pleasant than looking into someone else’s backyard or commercial structure.


Access to Nature and Recreation - Greenspaces often include trails, parks, or natural reserves, providing immediate access for walking, jogging, biking, or simply enjoying nature.


Health Benefits – Proximity to nature has been shown to reduce stress and anxiety. Take a deep breath, the vegetation helps filter pollutants and produce oxygen.


Viewing Nature - Living near a greenspace may allow you to see birds, deer, or other wildlife—an enjoyable aspect for nature lovers.


Potential for Higher Property Value – One of the most important benefits of greenspace living is the positive influence on resale value. Owning a premium lot usually sees higher demand when it’s time to sell your home.


As the Royal Valley community in Guelph is surrounded by trees, ponds & walking trails, Mikmada Homes has gorgeous greenspace lots available just waiting for you to build your own private oasis.
