The Perks of Downsizing to a Bungalow
Life has a way of leading us to unexpected places, and for our client Shirley Hewlett, that journey led her to a world of unparalleled luxury and tranquility in The Estates of Salisbury Village in Sherwood Park. Downsizing from her cherished acreage home, she found herself embraced by a community that felt like home from the moment she arrived.

Shirley’s journey began when a simple window cleaning turned into the first domino of her transition. The window cleaner, captivated by the beauty of her property, expressed interest in purchasing it should she ever decide to sell. A few years later, after her husband Brian passed away, the decision to downsize became apparent. The acreage was becoming too much for Shirley, especially with the increasing maintenance and unexpected breakdowns.
As fate would have it, two more positive dominos followed. The window cleaner, true to his word, purchased her property. Then, a good friend from Shirley’s yoga class suggested exploring a community in Salisbury Village, a secluded enclave of luxury bungalow duplexes that were built by us at Kimberley Homes, backed by lush green spaces and inviting nature.
The allure of the green surroundings was irresistible to Shirley, who had always cherished the outdoors and the serenity of nature. Salisbury Village provided the perfect balance of peace and tranquility, offering wide open fields and majestic trees beyond her backyard, creating a sense of country living with city conveniences.
Customization was another delightful perk Shirley enjoyed with our team. We had the chance to work closely with her to design a floor plan tailored to her preferences and needs. She opted for a spacious 1,600-square-foot main floor that included a bedroom and an office, which she transformed into a charming plant room. The fully developed basement housed two more bedrooms, a generous family room, and a games room equipped with a large ping pong table and a vintage pinball machine for her grandkids.
This was a great decision for Shirley, and it might also be a great decision for you.
