Imagine this: living in a condominium community that’s as close to nature as it is to shopping and a host of other desirable amenities.
Welcome to Oxbow of Tuxedo Point, where shopping and natural beauty – and unparalleled convenience – intersect in a location that’s second-to-none.
"Oxbow of Tuxedo Point’s location is exceptional," said Jason van Rooy, Towers Realty Group’s marketing and customer service manager. "On the one hand, you’re next to the fastest-growing retail area in Winnipeg. On the other, you’re just minutes from the natural beauty of Fort Whyte Alive."
On any given day, residents of Oxbow can enjoy the best of both worlds. In the afternoon, you can head out to Fort Whyte to enjoy a picnic surrounded by all its natural beauty; then, the same evening, you can head over to nearby Ikea to find a perfect accent piece for your condo, or browse for a bargain at one of the many outlet shops in The Seasons of Tuxedo.
The amenities surrounding Oxbow don’t end there, said van Rooy.
"Not will you be close to Fort Whyte and all kinds of shopping along the Sterling Lyon Parkway and on the Kenaston Strip, you’ll also be only minutes away from the Assiniboine Forest, Assiniboine Park, Assiniboine Park Zoo and Tuxedo Golf Course."
If you enjoy an active lifestyle, there’s no better location, he added.
"You can sail on Lake Devonian at Fort Whyte in, walk or bike down the kilometres of bike paths in the Assiniboine Forest, snowshoe at Assiniboine Park or head out to Tuxedo Golf Course for an enjoyable round of golf with friends. If you prefer to keep active indoors, facilities like Goodlife Fitness, the RINK, yoga studios and a host of community centres are at your service year-round."
If you just feel like staying home, yet want to stay in motion, that won’t be a problem, either.
"Oxbow of Tuxedo Point is actually going to be part of a community. On one side will be Oxbow with its multi-unit condo development; one the other will be The Spot, a grouping of mixed-use premium apartments with retail," van Rooy said. "There will also be a two-storey fitness facility in the apartment complex that Oxbow residents can pay a fee to use. At Oxbow, you won’t have to drive anywhere to stay active."
Should residents want to do something more moderate, they’ll also be able to do that without having to drive anywhere, as the Oxbow’s surroundings will allow residents to meander around at their leisure.
"It’s going to be a beautiful community. There’s going to be a fully-landscaped park where people can go to relax, and if you feel like going for a longer walk, the Assiniboine Forest and its trails are only a short distance away," he said.
Thanks to Oxbow’s central location, residents can access literally any area of the city in short order, whether for work, shopping, recreation or entertainment. Head north on Kenaston Boulevard, and you’re just minutes from Polo Park Shopping Centre, a host of services, shops and restaurants on Portage Avenue – with downtown Winnipeg just a short distance east.
Take Kenaston south, and you’re at the Pembina Strip in minutes, with St. Vital Centre a short hop away down Bishop Grandin Boulevard. Should residents want to head out to the lake for the day, Kenaston Boulevard (a.k.a. Highway 7) provides access to Lake Winnipeg destinations north, while taking Bishop Grandin Boulevard east leads to cottage country in the Whiteshell via the Trans Canada Highway.
In other words, Oxbow of Tuxedo Point is perfectly positioned, said van Rooy.
"You’d be hard-pressed to find a more central, convenient location. At Oxbow, you can have it all. If you enjoy nature, it’s literally right out your front door. If you enjoy shopping and dining out, stores and restaurants are right at your fingertips. You’re at a perfect location, a crossroads that will allow you to to choose how and where you want to spend your time."
