Ivy Rouge is a Starlane Homes community at Sixth Line and Burnhamthorpe Road East in north Oakville, built with Rosehaven Homes on the earlier phases. Phase 4 is now selling, with five home types on one site: rear-lane townhomes, street townhomes, semis and two sizes of detached house. That range is useful if you are not yet sure whether a townhouse or a detached house fits your budget.

Deposits are paid in $30,000 instalments: one with your offer, then at 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 days depending on the home. Some lots and elevations carry a premium. Options on the detached homes include 10-foot main floor ceilings for $30,000 and an exterior walk-up stair for $30,000.
Why the price list shows two prices
The list price includes HST, with the standard new housing rebate already credited to the builder. The lower figure is the price before HST. Under the enhanced Ontario and federal HST rebate, a buyer who qualifies and assigns the rebate to the builder pays close to the before-HST figure. On a 20-foot townhome that is a difference of about $94,000.
The price list is clear that the rebate is the buyer’s risk: if you do not qualify, or the rebate is changed or delayed, you pay the full HST on closing. The rebate applies to agreements signed by March 31, 2027 for a home that will be your principal residence. Read our story on the HST rebate on new homes before you sign.

One cost to note: the gas water heater is on a rental basis, so budget for a monthly rental charge.
Is a semi worth the step up?
Across the GTA in August 2026, the average semi-detached house resold for $931,665 and the average freehold townhouse for $882,060, a gap of about $50,000. At Ivy Rouge the gap is wider: about $124,000 from the cheapest street townhome to the cheapest semi, before HST, and another $372,000 to the 35-foot detached. A semi gives you one shared wall instead of two and a side yard. The 25-foot Sierra townhome, at up to 2,495 square feet, is larger than many of the semis, so compare floor plans before paying for the extra wall.
Location
The site is a few minutes from Highway 407 and from the Uptown Core at Dundas and Trafalgar, where the main shopping for north Oakville is found. Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital is nearby on Dundas Street West. The builder gives 13 minutes to Oakville GO station and 10 to Costco. Lions Valley Park and the Sixteen Mile Creek trails are the closest large green space.
Timeline
Completion for earlier phases was listed as late 2026 to early 2027. Ask for the first tentative closing date on your lot, since Phase 4 lots may close later. Deposits are due within four to six months, which suits buyers who already have equity or savings in hand. If you need to sell a home first, list it early enough that the sale closes before your final deposit is due. Our list of pre-construction closing costs covers what to budget beyond the price.
Questions to ask
- What is the first tentative closing date for your lot?
- What are the lot premiums for corner, park or ravine locations?
- Is the development charge waiver a cap on all charges, including any future increases?
- Can the water heater be purchased instead of rented?
- Is the $20,000 decor credit available on every home type?

Closing costs at the starting price
Land transfer tax on $906,106 in Oakville is about $14,597, or $10,597 for a first-time buyer after rebates. New homes also carry builder closing adjustments such as development charges, utility connections and Tarion enrolment, which are set out in the agreement and are often capped on request. Have a lawyer review the agreement during the 10-day cooling-off period on a new condominium. The land transfer tax calculator and the HST rebate guide cover the rest.
