Community Design Guidelines

Architectural, Landscape & Development Guidelines

A strong sense of community is an important part of living at Turtle Mountain. Development guidelines are in place that lead to a unifying architectural style within the neighbourhood, while still allowing owners the ability to build their home to meet their own needs by taking advantage of the views and individual lot characteristics.

For home designs, Wesbild’s development guidelines focus primarily on the Craftsman style architecture, and the Prairie style – which is most commonly associated with the works of Frank Lloyd Wright. These popular styles complement the building sites on Turtle Mountain with large roof overhangs providing summer shade & winter protection, comfortable front porches where neighbours can talk to neighbours, timeless architectural details, and a consistency in design style that protects and enhances property values.

Turtle Mountain has a distinctive look and feel due to the unified approach specified in the development guidelines towards the landscaping for each home. This includes plant types, specified tree types, lighting, fences and hard landscape elements like driveways.
