For more than 35 years, Silvergate Homes has excelled in new-home building in Niagara. Owned and operated by two generations of the Passero family, Silvergate has carefully nurtured a reputation for exceptional quality and a commitment to customer service.This underlying philosophy hasn't changed since day one, and Silvergate is now getting noticed well beyond the local new home market. Its two flagship communities, Legends on the Green and Village on the Twelve, are attracting the attention of a growing number of homebuyers from the GTA who are seeking value and luxury in Niagara.

Legendary living in Niagara Falls

An Energy Star-certified contemporary bungalow townhome community, Legends on the Green offers luxury living and architectural elegance. Backing onto the outstanding Legends on the Niagara championship golf course, this rare enclave community of 58 upscale bungalow towns is located in the charming village of Chippawa along the Niagara River."We're extremely proud of Legends on the Green," says John Passero, president of Silvergate Homes. "The location is second-to-none with its secluded backdrop along the golf course, yet it's just minutes away from all the amenities Niagara Falls has to offer."The architecturally-controlled exteriors at Legends are extraordinary, with a stylish fusion of dark siding, stone and modern brick. Interior layouts and finishes exude luxury, with designer kitchens, spa-like ensuites and spacious living areas.

On the banks of the '12'

Overlooking a beautiful ravine along the banks of St. Catharines' historic Twelve Mile Creek is one of Silvergate's most luxurious releases to date. The sixth phase of Village on the Twelve is a limited collection of two-storey and bungalow urban townhomes.These homes offer upscale, sophisticated and modern design; architecturally-controlled exteriors to ensure aesthetic beauty and balance within the Village on the Twelve community. Clean lines, numerous windows for bright interiors, innovative floorplans and contemporary styling elevate this collection of stunning homes.It's a secluded oasis in one of the city's most prestigious areas, a rare opportunity in what is considered "Niagara's Urban Hub." Village on the Twelve residents are just a short five-minute drive away from the downtown, which offers premier dining, a new performing arts centre and the Meridian Centre sports and spectator facility. St. Catharines is indeed getting noticed, having welcomed world-class acts in recent years, including Elton John, John Mellencamp and The Tragically Hip, to name a few.
