Hartman land design

innovation in land development

Ocean View Terrace

The Lands of OVT arise from an inspired design, resulting in an innovative hillside enclave of roads, home sites and parks/trails. Aesthetics of the roads and sloping spaces were a prime design consideration, but the awe-inspiring views to the Sunshine Coast and the snow capped coast range mountains initially capture the attention.

The lands are designed for people. The focus is to provide for human necessities: comfortable pedestrian spaces and trails, continuous access to the sweeping views, unobtrusive constructed features, and widespread landscaping, thereby allowing OVT’s houses to become homes. And yet transportation needs are also well met with ample parking, modest road grades and level driveways.

Terraced Home sites afford permanent uninterrupted views, yet the design provides for columns of roadside trees and generous grassed boulevards. All utility services are underground. Roads are uniquely adapted to the needs of the homes, resulting in narrow pavement areas that slow traffic and encourage walking along the many looped pedestrian routes on the site. Sidewalks connect to park trails and transportation links.
