The result of this new resort Okanagan real estate project at the pre-construction trepanier Manor estate homes is a creation of 20 exquisite manor homes with a gorgeous main hotel that are equal parts elegance, luxury and charm.  Nestled amongst the trees on the gentle slopes of Trepanier Table Top Mountain in Peachland BC, each spacious home (they range from approximately 2000 to 3500 square feet) will feature classic décor treatments: high ceilings, creamy papered walls, french doors and rich wood.  All furnished, offer viewpoints and a gracious English country style – a taste of a bygone Victorian era with all the modern amenities  Therre are comfortable sitting areas, modern kitchens at the Okanagan Trepanier Manor homes, with light cabinets and natural stone floors, and luxurious bathrooms with white tile and marble, large soaker tubs and double sinks.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After spending more than a dozen years managing some of the world’s finest boutique hotels, international hotelier Scott Wilshaw decided it was time to fulfill his dream.  That dream was to build an upscale European style hotel with a collection of exclusive country homes in the heart of one of Wilshaw’s favourite locales: the Thompson Okanagan wine country in Peachland real estate BC.  “I watned to create a world class destination resort similar to the Aerie Resort and Wickaninnish Inn on Vancouver Island because I felt this type of experience was missing in the Valley,” he explains. “And this region truly has it all – wonderful weather, beautiful surroundings, great wine and endless recreation possibilities.”  Finding the ideal site for the Trepanier Manor Peachland homes to fulfill his vision, however, wasn’t easy. “Over the course of two years, we looked at 38 possible sites before we found this one,” says Wilshaw, referring the stunning 25 acre parcel of land overlooking Okanagan Lake and richly populated with Ponderosa pines.  Wilshaw next hired renowned architect John Sproule to come up with a design that celebrated the classic Victorian style English country manor homes of the 1800s yet also strove to incorporate the natural elements of the breathtaking surroundings.  This is now the new Peachland resort home development at the Trepanier Manor Homes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Email Newsletter Update for Trepanier Manor Houses&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As promised, I have attached two of the renderings and floor plans for Peachland’s Trepanier Manor new recreational resort real estate offering.

But as the saying goes, seeing really is believing.  And standing int eh showhome’s kitchen with sales representative Jill Carter, I finally see for myself of the meticulous planning that’s gone into making this a community rather than just a collection of stylish pre-construction Squamish homes.  Life at Coastal Village Aqua condo presales in Squamish is centred around a spacious – okay, enormous would be a much better, more accurate descriptor – piazza.  With construction at the Coastal Village Aqua condos in Squamish underway, it’s easy to visualize people meeting up with friends for a latter at the corner coffee shop or simply kicking abck on one of the many benches that will be scattered throughout the property. That is, of course, after an invigorating hike along the perimeter trail that rings the property on three sides in this new Squamish condo development.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adding a unique touch will be a towering sculpture of a mother bear and her cubs – part of Coastal Village’s public art component. Carved by George Pratt (who also created the Terry Fox sculpture that stands outside BC Place Stadium) from local stone blasted out during the Sea to Sky Highway improvement project, The Bears is a totally interactive, artistic treasure.  Translation: kids of all ages can touch it, pose beside it, even climb on it.  In fact, real estate Squamish developer Thomas Avanore, president of Bel Tar Holdings, says he believes the carving will become suh an integrated part of the Squamish lifestyle that people will one day say: I’ll meet you at the Bears.  Great Homes at amazing prices.  The kitchens of the presales new Squamish condos at Aqua at Coastal Village is sleek, contemporary, and designed with efficienty in mind – plus there’s granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and undermount lighting.  There’s a main floor powder room, corner fireplace in the living room of the Aqua Condos at Squamish Coastl Village real estate development as well as engineered hardwood flooring throughout the main living level.  Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, two with vaulted ceilings.  The spacious master bedroom has a walk-in closet with windows plus a cozy nook that’s perfect for snuggling down with a good book and an hour or two to yourself.  Clearly, these presales Aqua at Coastal Village homes are designed with comfort especially with a deep soaker tub.</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.condo-living-west.com/blog/2008/07/squamish-resort-property-part-2.html' title='Squamish Resort Property - Part 2: Garibaldi Springs Golf Resort Executive Suites, Eaglewind Apartments and Townhomes, Coastal Village Master Plan'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2671227277986209633&amp;postID=3283533145639374437' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.condo-living-west.com/blog/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2671227277986209633/posts/default/3283533145639374437'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2671227277986209633/posts/default/3283533145639374437'/><author><name>hattrick</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06196711928056578385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2671227277986209633.post-6724130225329113770</id><published>2008-07-21T21:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-21T22:01:17.437-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Squamish Real Estate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Squamish Condos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BC Resort Property'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Squamish Property'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Recreational'/><title type='text'>Squamish Real Estate: Mountaineer Condos, Studio SQ Lofts, Oceanfront MirEAU Westmana, Ocean's Gateway, Bracken Arms Estates, University Heights</title><content type='html'>&lt;h2&gt;Pre-Sale Mountaineer Squamish Condominiums&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Situated at Victoria and Third in the centre of downtown Squamish, Mountaineer condo presales brings a selection of one and two bedroom pre-construction condominiums to this rapidly revitalizing neighbourhood.

The buzzword of the province.  And as speculation about all things real estate runs rampant, tehrea re a few municipalities where the impact of this almost magical number is being felt more than in Squamish.  The self-proclaimed Outdoor Recreation Capital of Canada, Squamish real estate is seeing prices skyrocket.  According to the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver, in 2007, housing prices in this Squamish community climbed faster than any others in the Lower Mainland.  New construction in Squamish real estate finishing details are going beyond upscale to become unabashedly luxurious, and an exploding number of urbanites giving in to their fascination with the active lifestyle.  Multi-family Squamish real estate developers are responding with innovative, targeted amenities including on-site bike and kayak storage, built-in wine fridges, and even a rock climbing wall (found at Red Point Squamish – a 185 unit pre-sales condo real estate development located just south of the Mamquam Tidal Channel).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Coastal Village Squamish property, a multi-phased six acre, master planned community on the banks of the estuary, is incorporating the community’s first public swimming pool into its design as well as what real estate builder Thomas Ivanore, president of Bel Tar Holdings, says it he most technologically advanced dike system in the province.  Just down the road, Streams, part of Solterra’s Eaglewind Squamish real estate development, boasts tennis courts, sports lawns, and the Yaletown style finishing that are now defacto standards.  Single family real estate developments in property in Squamish are equally lavish.  Thunderbird Creek by Townline Homes and University Heights Squamish by University Heights Real Estate Developments come with an attention to detail, square footage and quality that rival tony neighbourhoods like West Vancouver or Shaughnessy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And while increased property demand is clearly driving prices up, Squamish real estate property market still represents a value many consider better than equivalent suburbs to the east of Vancouver.  Neat, tidy pre-sales homes with some age can be found for under $450,000, and for $600,000 you’ll get most of the bells and whistles plus a minimum of 2,500 square feet of living space – typically much more.  A mansion of 5,550 square feet is currently listed at $1.5 million in the Squamish property listings – a fraction of the cost if the same home was to be located in the British Properties.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Squamish apartments ofer the broadest range of products both in new and resales Squamish real estate market.  Older, solid and often renovated condo units are still available for under $250,000.  But with new pre-sales Squamish condos now starting in the $350,000 range, many homebuyers are choosing the security of a home warranty and contemporary design.  Penthouses at Aqua Squamish condos are currently at the top of the scale, with a price tag of up to $820,000 for more than 2,100 square feet.  Townhouses in Squamish real estate, the most limited market choice, are available for less than $350,000 if you look.  But as with pre-sales condominiums, the allure of new construction in Squamish property for as little as $100,000 more is tough to ignore.</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.condo-living-west.com/blog/2008/07/squamish-real-estate-mountaineer-condos.html' title='Squamish Real Estate: Mountaineer Condos, Studio SQ Lofts, Oceanfront MirEAU Westmana, Ocean&apos;s Gateway, Bracken Arms Estates, University Heights'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2671227277986209633&amp;postID=6724130225329113770' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.condo-living-west.com/blog/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2671227277986209633/posts/default/6724130225329113770'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2671227277986209633/posts/default/6724130225329113770'/><author><name>hattrick</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06196711928056578385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2671227277986209633.post-1198733018737651488</id><published>2008-07-20T13:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-20T13:49:43.816-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kelowna'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Osoyoos Lakefront Property'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BC Resort Property'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Waterfront Property'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Okanagan Real Estate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Recreational Real Estate'/><title type='text'>BC Bound – Albertans Seek Waterfront Resorts: BC Resort Real Estate, B.C. Recreational Property, Waterfront, Lakefront Condos, Townhomes, Homes</title><content type='html'>Originally published in the Homes and Resort magazine and written by well respected and trusted writer D. Murray.  Oil and water don’t mix, say scientists and culinary experts. But a growing number of Western Canadians seem ot have found a way to blend these two opposing liquids into their onw lives.  After recent years of booming oil business, Albertans who have struck it rich are using their new found wealth to purchase some previous waterfront real estate property in BC – primarily seeking resort homes on the shores of the many beautiful lakes.  Nobody can blame people in Canada’s richest province of Alberta for wanting to own some waterfront BC property amid the majestic mountains in Canada’s super natural province.  Alberta has so few beaches and mountains, and sometimes, a beautiful thing is meant for sharing.  “A lot of people are migrating to BC partly because fo the incredible scenery and nature itself – the mountains, the lakes,” said Garry Leitch, a marketing manager for some BC resorts like The Narrows at Shuswap Lake. Boating, swimming, and a long list of other water sports have popularized many of BC’s large, warm lakes through the extended summers.  In winter, ski trips are just minutes away from our cities rather than hours, and powder days come much more frequently.  In between this adventurous fun, wineries and orchards provide a beautiful backdrop for a picnic or hike in almost any season.  From the springtime blook to the fall harvest and festival tours, the BC valleys provide a spark of colour not seen on the bald prairies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;More About Lakefront and Waterfront BC Resort Real Estate Property&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“It is mesmerizing. The natural beauty stays with you for life. Everyone of course enjoys the summer, it is a very attractive place for four seasons,” said Sam Boguslavsky, president of Sable Resorts, and developer of The Legacy on Mara Lake and Legacy Ridge in Radium Hot Springs. Summer holidays spent on idyllic lakeside beaches have often provided the impetus to turn a vacation location into a full-time home.  For a growing number of Albertans, the place they are calling home (at least part-time) is British Columbia, where the milder weather combines with more opportunities to enjoy outdoor pursuits.  “People are looking for other places to go where you have got year round recreation,” continued Garry. “A lot ofpeople are looking to lifestyle decisions, part of that is warm climates where you can play golf longer, you can take more advantage of the four seasons of activities at your fingertips.”  Reflecting the demand of the BC real estate market, golf real estate communities are growing leaps and bounds across BC interior.  Last year, there new golf communities opened in the Shuswap Kamloops region. Two new golf real estate communities are opening up in the hills above Kelowna and Vernon property this season, to be followed by another 27 holes next season.  The South Columbia Valley real estate has three new golf property communities starting up among the two dozen existing courses. “There are tons of choices,” said Eric Watson, managing director, broker for Ultimate Properties and marketer for Invermere’s Resort at Castle Rock. “If you are a golfer, you are in paradise.” People go there to get away and have fun. BC has more recreational options for less many than the eastern slopes of the Rockies on the Alberta side,” said Eric, noting the motivations for the majority of Calgary buyers at this new BC resort. “Given the natural assets it has, it is inevitable.  Weather is obviously a big factor – it can be substantially warmer.  To have golf, skiing, the lake and everything else that goes with it, this is very difficult to replace. It really is a recreational real estate paradise.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;The Future B.C. Resort Real Estate Developments&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“People look toward a warmer climate to get away and enjoy that,” said Sam. “Tehre are many amenities that go beyond just the lakeshore real estate. Golfing opportunities are truly tremendous with many new courses that have opened up. And the Monashee offer wolrd class sledding and snowmobiling.  “We love it because of the proximity for Albertans. Coming from Alberta, Mara is the first warm lake,” Sam said, noting reasons for the large number of Alberta real estate resort buyers at this Shuswap resort, and the 90 plus percent of Albertans who have purchased at Legacy Ridge in Radium Hot Springs. “the economy in Alberta, and especially Calgary, is so strong with oil and gas driving it. So Alberta continues to drive our BC resort real estate market.”  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Across the provincial border, what had been a steady migration for years is now an ever growing exodus to cities throughout the BC interior – particularly the Columbia Valley, the Okanagan and the Shuswap.  “Most of the resort BC property that are selling, over 50 per cent of buyers are from Alberta,” said Curt Woodhall, Principal of Lift Real Estate and marketer for Carmel Beach Lodges in Shuswap. “Obviously their economy is strong. The climate in the Okanagan real estate is much better than Alberta and the amenities are unmatched for recreation and retirement. I don’t think that it is any surprise that Albertans are jumping on these first because they already are familiar with the area.” “Lakefront is a good real estate BC investment property because they are not making any more lakes, as far as I know,” he quipped before adding a more serious note. “It is only going up in value, supply is limited because there are only som many lakes and so many good real estate BC properties and spots available. Soon they will be all built.” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Growth Predictions of British Columbia recreational property&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last year, the first of the baby boomers generation turned 60 and many have already opted for an early retirement.  Over the coming years, many more are predicted to be turning their focus to getting back to relaxation and recreation. “Vacation property is the fastest growing market in Canada real estate,” said Mark Clark, realtor fo the Gateway on the North Shore of Shuswap Lake. “in our project, our biggest response has been from Calgary and Edmonton.” “close to 50 per cent of the summer population is from Alberta,” said Jeff Tarry, realtor for Century 21 selling Bayside homes, plus president of North Shuswap Chamber of Commerce.  “Alberta doesn’t have the best of lakes. We have one of the best lakes around, the biggest provincial park in the interior of BC real estate resorts.  Everything is here that anybody would want to enjoy.” “the lakes in Alberta are very nice but they just don’t have the interesting components of the vastness of Shuswap or Mara Lake,” agreed George Crookshank.  “We see a lot of waterfront or lakeside real estate developments in BC that are being bought up by Albertans” said Brenda, director of communications for Okanagan Mainline Real Estate Board and a realtor with Coldwell Banker.  “They really appreciate our lakes.” “It’s definitely increased.  The Calgary and Edmonton (housing) markets have both really had excellend years recently.  A lot of people are coming out here with this new found equity and putting it into another BC resort property. People buying here with a five year range plan to retire here.” And with every new uptick at the gas pump, another Albertan gets another step closer to settling into the sandy shores of  BC lakefront real estate living.</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.condo-living-west.com/blog/2008/07/bc-bound-albertans-seek-waterfront.html' title='BC Bound – Albertans Seek Waterfront Resorts: BC Resort Real Estate, B.C.

CastleRock Resort Buildings 1 and 4 will have underground parking, plus plenty of above-ground parking.  All buildings will have secure storage. Building 4 will have retail services on the main level (e.g. convenience store, restaurant, spa).&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The primary views in CastleRock Building 1 are the majestic Purcell Mountains to the west, and Rocky Mountain peaks and beautifully landscaped courtyard and swimming pool to the east.  The resort is designed to provide hassle-free lifestyle and investment ownership.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Fractional vs. Whole Ownership&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fractional ownership provides an exciting and affordable way to enjoy and invest in recreational property. Unlike CastleRock Resort real estate timeshare, fractional ownership provides each fractional owner with a deeded title for their interest in the property.  This fractional interest can be financed and sold like non-fractional real estate.  Resort Fractional ownership means you can still enjoy the property yourself for up to 13 weeks per year (which is more than most will use their property anyway), while sharing the operating and capital investment costs. This style also lends itself very well to rental programs (since you are sharing anyway) to help recover your operating costs.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;If you prefer whole ownership, you may purchase all four quarters to benefit from additional discounting on the purchase price and operating costs.  In the future, you may choose to resell one or more of the quarters at real estate resort market price.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Construction Status&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Construction of Building 1 is planned to commence ~May/June '08 with completion planned for mid-'09.  Construction of the Resort at Castle Rock Condo Building 2 and the recreation centre and pool is expected to commence mid-'08 with possession in mid-late '09.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The CastleRock building and suite floor plans are under review and are expected to increase on average by approximately 10%. Current pricing is based on the current smaller sizes, and will increase once the new larger suite sizes are approved (prior to the end of April). Purchasers that commit to their purchase prior to the increase will get the larger size units at no additional cost.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Sales&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Building 1 is already pre-sold; CastleRock Building 2 was just released for pre-sale and is expected to also sell quickly.  As noted above, current pricing is based on the current smaller sizes, and will increase once the new larger suite sizes are approved. Purchasers that commit to their purchase prior to the increase will get the larger size units at no additional cost.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Availability and Limited Time Pre-Construction Pricing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Note: the quoted pricing applies to Building 2)&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;One Bedroom:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One bedroom 1/4 fractions are currently priced at $69,000 to $74,000.
