New
Subdivisions and Expansion of Existing
Developments Provide Plenty of Room For Growth
in Valley East |
Written by Robert

According
to the most recent Active Subdivision Plans map
which can be found on the City of Greater
Sudbury web site, as of May 2013, Valley East
had over 1500 potential lots approved for new
houses. This means that our community is in
excellent position to handle the tremendous
demand for new housing units that is expected to
be felt in the region during the next decade. We
could easily see our population increase by
several thousand people during that time which
would have quite an impact on local commercial
and recreational activity. This section of
Valley East Today is being provided to you by HQ
Mortgages Inc. in order to help anyone who is
interested in living in Valley East become aware
of all of the options that are available. We are
not endorsing any of the subdivisions or
developments in this section, nor are they
listed in any order of priority. Please feel
free to go to the links for more photos and
information on the various listings. |
|ROYAL
MEADOWS |

Royal Meadows is located
in Blezard Valley off of Martin Road. Access to
the subdivision is from Royal Street or

DOMINION PARC |

Dominion
Parc is an established subdivision located in
the heart of Valley East and can be accessed by
Jeanne d'Arc Street off Regional Road 80 or by
Heritage Street off Dominion Drive. Close to 300
lots have been approved for development, with
over 200 already developed. The next phase of
the development is ready to begin so there are
plenty of good options coming up soon. This is
definitely one sudbisivion that should be
considered by anyone withing to purchase a new
house in Valley East. |

PINECREST GARDENS |
|
Pinecrest Gardens is beginning its first phase
of a subdivision that will eventually contain 54
houses when it is completed. Eventually Jeanne
d'Arc Street will continue on the other side of
Regional Road 80 when the next phases are
developed. The first phase is accessed by
Larocque Avenue. Construction on new houses has
already begun. |

HIDDEN VALLEY |
|
Hidden Valley is one of the premium developments
in the entire City of Greater Sudbury. It is
located in a vast woodland to the west of
Regional Road 80 just as you come into Val
Caron. It can be accessed off the main entrance
on Regional Road 80 across from the golf course,
or via Fifth Street at the bottom of the hill.
There are about 50 lots being developed in the
first stage, with most of them already sold.
They will be ready to enter the next phase of
what will eventually become a 431 home
subdivision. The attraction that is most
appealing to people about this development is
its proximity to Sudbury for work and shopping.
At the same time, residents get all the benefits
of living in Valley East. |

NATURE'S HAVEN |
|
Nature's Haven is a
subdivision that is being developed in Hanmer at
the end of St. Michel Street. The first phase is
scheduled to produce a total of 72 single family
dwellings in a picturesque setting that is far
enough out of the way to provide peace and quiet
for residents, but close enough to all of the
amenities to make this a prime location. Phase
II of the Nature's Haven developments will
include another 85 lots upon which we may expect
to see townhouses or semi-detached homes as well
as single family dwellings. |

GOLF VIEW |
|
|
Golf View is a
development that will include semi-detached
homes built on 35 lots that are situated on Main
Street East in Val Caron. For people who have
been living in the Valley for some time, this is
the site of the former Valley Driving
Range prior to it being moved to the Valley
Family Golf Centre in Blezard Valley. This is
another Dalron development and is eagerly
being awaited by many residents who are seeking
affordable homes in the area. |

VALLEY MEADOWS |
|
It may not look like
much right now, and there has not been any
activity to date, but Valley Meadows, which is
located behind the Val Est Mall in Val Caron,
has been approved for 149 lots and some day in
the future could be a huge development for Val
Caron. |

WHITSON LAKE |
|
The Whitson Lake
development is located off Kalmo Road in Val
Caron. When you come to Whitson Lake Drive you
will turn left and enter one of the most
picuresque developments you will ever find. The
Google Satellite Image will give you an idea
of what it is like from the air. The pictures
will give you an idea of what it looks like from
the ground. The
Street View on Google will take your breath
away. There will be a total of 32 estate homes
built in this subdivision. At the present time
there are around a dozen or more already built. |
