In less than a month, Formwerks Boutique Properties’ Toppen Ridge sold more than 60 per cent of its new townhomes and courtyard homes. Why? Several reasons – a fabulous North Shore location, an incentive program and a unique offering featuring several homes with lock-off suites – perfect for in-law suites or mortgage helpers.
“The uniqueness of a lock- off suite is that you can use it for so many different purposes: rent it out as a mortgage helper, provide some independence for young adult kids or support an aging family member, you could even use it as a home business space or a creative studio,” says James McKenny, director of sales and marketing, Formwerks Boutique Properties. “In addition, to assist buyers get into a home, we are offering flexible deposit options.”

The ability to generate rental income from the lock- off suite and its location were big draws for Myrosha Daley. The 40-year-old purchased a two-bedroom garden home with studio overlooking the courtyard.
“I have lived in this area for 15 years and absolutely love it,” says Daley. “I can access the trails and mountains from my doorstep and Toppen Ridge is close to the water.”
He especially fell in love with the Scandinavian design.
“There are a lot of new builds in the area but Toppen Ridge really stands out for its uniqueness,” Daley adds. “I also think the interiors are beautifully designed with high end finishing.”
