Voted “Best Golf Clubhouse 2010”
Cardinal Redcrest Golf Clubhouse Kettleby, Ontario
A Normerica Design/Build project in collaboration with Michael Pettes Architects, this stunning timber frame clubhouse features a contemporary timber design with a dramatic vaulted ceiling, showcasing the towering strength and beauty of the exposed Northern White Pine posts and beams. The 7,500 sq.ft.-plus clubhouse is highlighted by timber to timber windows that offer scenic panoramic vistas of the picturesque new RedCrest Course. A cozy 1,500 sq.ft. covered porch offers an area where golfers will be able to enjoy the views while relaxing before or after a round of golf. Men’s and women’s locker rooms, a state-of-the art kitchen, lounge areas, elevator access, an open concept pro shop and a casual dining area with a bar overlooking the course are just a few of the other key features. The clubhouse is extremely energy efficient with increased wall and roof insulation that results in an energy efficiency rating that is 33 per cent above the norm. The ground source heating and cooling system feed off the existing well allowing the potable water brought into the building to heat and cool the building. Construction started January 2009 and was in operation by early August 2009.
