Draper
Neighbourhoods frame people's lives
WE UNDERSTAND THAT PURCHASING A NEW HOME IS A BIG DECISION.
Selecting the right community is an important step in the home buying or building process.
This is why we work hard to offer you beautiful homes in idyllic locations.
Resting on the southern bank and plains overlooking the Clearwater River, this picturesque neighbourhood consists mainly of lush acreages with mixed architectural stylings and individually unique approaches to homes and landscaping making it one of the most interesting areas in which to reside. It should be noted that this community treasures a rare level of privacy with many secluded homes seated along the hillside and winding river below. Residents relish the freedom of country living and enjoy outdoor activities right in their own back yards such as quadding, snowmobiling, hiking, and fishing with all the benefits of being in close proximity to the bustling downtown core, schools, and commercial services.
