Step inside the Paris-inspired grand opening that introduced Edmonton’s newest collection of move-up homes.

Sunshine, violin music, espresso in hand, and beautifully designed homes around every corner. WestView at Chappelle Gardens officially made its debut in unforgettable fashion.

On Saturday, May 2, more than 600 guests gathered in southwest Edmonton to experience the Postcard from Paris Show Home Grand Opening and explore one of the newest collections of show homes in Chappelle Gardens.

For one incredible afternoon, Chegwin Wynd transformed into a charming slice of Paris as visitors explored beautifully designed move-up homes, enjoyed live entertainment, and discovered everything that makes WestView at Chappelle Gardens such an exciting new community in Edmonton.

And it did not disappoint.

From the moment guests arrived, they were handed their very own “Postcard from Paris,” a playful guide that turned touring show homes into an interactive adventure. Each stop along the way brought a new stamp, a new discovery, and another reason to slow down and soak in the experience.

With coffee in hand, live music drifting through the streets, and ice cream enjoyed under the spring sun, the entire afternoon felt effortlessly connected. Part community celebration, part Parisian-inspired escape.

Touring the Homes (and Loving Every Minute)

WestView at Chappelle Gardens presents a limited collection of thoughtfully designed move-up homes in southwest Edmonton, created for those looking for more space, style, and elevated living.

Guests explored four beautifully curated show homes by respected builders:

Akash Homes  |  Five Star Homes  |  Parkwood Homes  |  Sterling Homes

Meanwhile, Kimberley Homes was onsite previewing their stunning new show home opening this fall.

Each home brought its own personality and inspiration to the event, from bright open-concept living spaces to functional family-friendly layouts and elevated design details that had guests imagining life there long after the tour ended.

For families, the experience included a subtle scavenger hunt woven throughout the homes. Children searched high and low for hidden butterflies tucked into each space, adding a playful layer of excitement while parents took time to fully explore the homes around them.

A Parisian-Inspired Street Festival

The experience extended far beyond the front doors.

Outside, the atmosphere buzzed with energy as guests enjoyed:

  • Fresh coffee and espresso flowing all afternoon
  • Ice cream from Made by Marcus, a crowd favourite
  • A mini bouquet station where visitors created their own take-home florals
  • Face painting and balloon creations for the kids
  • Live violin performances adding the perfect Parisian soundtrack to the day
  • It was the kind of event that felt both elevated and welcoming. Relaxed, joyful, and just a little bit magical.

A Memorable Milestone for WestView

With beautiful weather, incredible turnout, and a strong sense of community throughout the day, the Grand Opening marked an exciting milestone for WestView at Chappelle Gardens.

More than anything, the event gave people a chance to truly experience the community, not just through the homes themselves, but through the atmosphere, the conversations, and all the little moments in between that made the day memorable.
