Deena Homes

“When a government or mu- nicipality decides to work on an area like that, that means a good study has been done,” Abo says. “No government or municipality in Canada will cre- ate a town centre and potential- ly spend over $100 million with- out having done their intensive due diligence.” That fact, combined with some other observations Abo had made, convinced him that the location was going to be high- ly-sought after – maybe not in 2010, but definitely by 2020. From there, Denna Homes set their sights on producing the best quality they possibly could. They wanted to set a standard that other developments in the area would have to live up to in the future. “We wanted to build a really high quality product,” Abo says. “We wanted to set the bench- mark. I’m proud to say, that’s what we have accomplished.” In the years since, Seylynn Vil- lage has grown to comprise two residential towers, called Beacon and Compass, with the third coming soon. It also in- cludes a 70-unit rental parcel. Then there’s the residents-only clubhouse called Denna Club, which features more than 14,000 square feet of amenities, including a 25-metre swimming pool, sauna, steam room, locker rooms, a full fitness centre, and yoga space. DEENA HOMES “Wewantedtoset the benchmark. I’m proud to say, that’s what we did.”
