Set aside any preconceptions you may have about small towns. At The Village Farm in Embro (population 1,000), Langlois Eco Homes is doing what other builders only dream of. Six new freehold townhomes have been engineered, built and certified to the Passive House standard – the world’s highest standard for energy efficiency, comfort and health. Only custom homebuilders offer this level of quality.

Designed for sophisticated buyers who demand superior design and next-level building quality, these homes convey a message – inside and out – of novelty, innovation and distinction. An iconic house shape is complemented by a geometric pattern of windows and exterior elements for a thoroughly modern look, while the standing-seam steel roof is a timeless signifier of quality.

Places to gather and retreat

The interior showcases a natural palette of white walls, bleached-oak floors, a solid-oak staircase, quartz countertops and custom cabinetry. Large windows, in soaring spaces, suffuse every room with gentle light. The airtightness of the building envelope works together with a state-of-the-art ventilation system to deliver consistently comfortable temperatures (no drafts or cold spots) and fresh, filtered air throughout.

With more than 2,200 sq. ft., three bedrooms and three full baths, these warm, elegant and spacious townhomes offer what every good home should – places to gather and places to retreat.

Active living at the centre of everything

Pickleball courts, golf, playing fields, arena, baseball diamond, playgrounds and conservation areas are just steps from The Village Farm. Local shops serve many of your needs, while Stratford, Woodstock and Ingersoll are just 20 short minutes away. A 40-minute drive takes you to Waterloo Region, and the nearest on-ramp to Hwy. 401 is only 11 minutes away.

Future plans for The Village Farm will bring urban and rural together. Naturalized shared-use trails, community gardens and the option to micro-farm on our certified organic farmland are just a few of the features that will lay the groundwork for a holistic, regenerative place to live and grow.

Only two of these award-nominated townhomes remain. Book your private appointment today by contacting Nick Pope, sales representative at Revel Realty Inc., Brokerage, nickpope@revelrealty.ca, 519.807.1757 or 519.206.9555.
