Home ownership wasn’t something we’d considered until Cornerstone came along. One look at the showhome (nice) and a conversation with their mortgage-savvy sales team, and we were sold. We walked in on a whim, thinking, “There’s no way we can afford this”, and walked out on top of the world.
Our folks agree — Cornerstone is a smart decision. Marcon has a great reputation; they’ve been around as long as we’ve been alive.
And the best part is we can still afford to go on vacation, thanks to our low monthly payment.
Superior quality 1 and 2 bedroom homes AND a 1.9% mortgage*
We are very happy homeowners.

Martin Knowles photosEstate homes at Castle Hill range from $1.5 million to $1.7 million. The acreage estates feature large backyards with green belt or river views, and homes ranging from 5,500 to 7,000 square feet.
by Kerry Vital
Castle Hill is just fi ve minutes from Fort Langley, but owners will never know it once they step onto their property.
Homes at Castle Hill include large terraced backyards, with a view of either a lush green belt backing onto the Salmon River or the Lower Mainland’s beautiful mountains.
Th e homes range from 5,500 to 7,000 square feet, with plenty of open spaces including large kitchens and great rooms.
“It’s a great development,” says HomeLife Benchmark Walnut Grove real estate agent Sherman Foster.
All 12 one-acre lots have been sold,
with some being purchased by builders.Th ere are currently three homes
on the market, all built by Lanstone Homes. One home is completed, with the second due to be ready in August and the third in October.
Other builders involved with the project include Wallmark Homes, Wescraft Residential Builders and Clay Construction Inc.
“Every lot is a unique setting,” Foster says.
“I was showing the home (recently) and there were deer walking through the yard.”
Potential homebuyers have told him they love the location of the subdivision and the lots, Foster says.
Th e open-plan layout of the homes has also been popular.
Homes at Castle Hill are close to historic Fort Langley, three local golf courses and the Fraser River, as well as numerous shops, restaurants and other services.
Th e current home, at 5,912 square feet, includes a double garage at the front of the house, plus a second double garage at the back, perfect for a boat, project car or bike.

Valley homes sales hit fi ve-year high for March.Fraser Valley Real Estate Board records its best March since 2006.
Home sales had a huge month in March, with sales hitting fi ve-year highs.
Th e Fraser Valley Real Estate Board (FVREB) recorded 1,818 property sales last month, marking its best March since 2006.
Sales jumped by 16 per cent over March 2010, which saw 1,565 sales in total. March also saw a jump of 42 per cent in sales over February, when the FVREB processed 1,279 sales.
Back in March of 2006, 2,072 sales were recorded.
Board President Sukh Sidhu says the overall demand was strong, but it wasn’t spread across the Valley as a whole.
“For example, sales of single family detached homes in White Rock/South Surrey
increased by over 150 per cent in March compared to last year, however in Abbotsford they were down by almost seven per cent,” he said.
Sidhu added that the number of new properties being listed for sale jumped by 11 per cent, rising from 3,038 new listings in February to 3,376 in March this year.
Real estate prices also rose in March, but that jump was not quite as dramatic. Th e benchmark price for detached homes in the Fraser Valley hit $519,628 last month, an increase of 0.9 per cent over the March 2010 price of $514,787.
Townhome prices remained relatively fl at, rising from $326,307 in 2010 to $327,328 in March of 2011.

Th e four-bedroom, four-bathroom home includes a studio or bonus room with a private entrance on the second fl oor, perfect for a home offi ce.
A private rear deck holds a natural gas fi replace and backs onto the green belt and Salmon River. Th e luxurious master bedroom includes a large walk-in closet and looks out over the back yard, and the formal living and dining rooms just add to the feeling of opulence.
Th e fi rst fl oor also includes a study and a nook area in the kitchen.
Th e house includes Luxor clean face fi replaces, granite countertops throughout and a full stainless steel gourmet appliance package. Hardwood fl oors are included throughout, and the fl oor of the en-suite bathroom is heated, perfect for bare feet on a cold morning.
Th e house is wired for sound and a central distribution audio control system, and includes a complete security and vacuum system.
Outside, the brick and stucco frontage welcomes you home, past the ruins of Castle Ziegler. Th e castle was originally built in 1910, and was the site of many parties thrown by owner Fritz Ziegler, a former consul general of Mexico.
Th e entire Castle Hill development will be built in a European country style design.
Homes at Castle Hill range from $1.5 to $1.7 million. For more information, visit www.castlehillestates.com.
