In this episode, we sit down with Darren Lee, the visionary owner of DNA Creative Homes and the mastermind behind the Albion Quarters in Carlton Landing. These six stunning brick homes, located on Park Street and Twinkle Lane, exude a charming European vibe. One of them, 37A—originally named "La Ferme" (The Farmhouse) by Darren—is now lovingly called The Lodge on Twinkle Lane, our family retreat.

I’ve been so impressed with the unique style and craftsmanship of our home that it sparked my curiosity about the other Albion homes. I wanted to uncover the stories and inspiration behind them all, and Darren didn’t disappoint.

In this episode, Darren walks us through each of the six homes, sharing their unique names, the design inspirations, and fascinating behind-the-scenes details about the materials and artistry that went into creating them. These homes are truly a blend of heart and creativity.

Three of the six Albion homes are available to rent:

The Lodge on Twinkle Lane (37A Park, owned by the Coleman family)
St. Charles Place (35C Park, owned by the Creel family)
Press Pause (37B Park, owned by the Phelps family)

I’ve also created a blog post with links to these homes, so you can plan a stay with your family and friends right in the heart of Carlton Landing. Tune in to hear the full story and get inspired for your next getaway!
