Finding a B.C. vacation property a Breeze
F inding a beautiful vacation home in Penticton or Castlegar, B.C., is a breeze thanks to two new developments from Breeze Properties Ltd.
Located across the street from beautiful Skaha Lake in south Penticton, Skaha Breeze Condominiums features 30 one- and two-bedroom suites ranging from 800 square feet up to more than 1,200 square feet.
“We have buyers who are taking them as a retirement destination, and a lot of our clients are looking at Skaha Breeze as a summer getaway,” says Lisa Mundell, vice-president for Western Canada for PM A Realty Group. “Our development and infrastructure is 100 per cent complete. We have a dozen units occupied.”
Mundell says the buildings have been completed to drywall, which allows owners the opportunity to choose their desired finishings.
Mundell says Skaha Breeze is located at the “quiet end” of Penticton, away from the hustle and bustle of Lake Okanagan, but with no shortage of amenities.
“Penticton is a four-season town— lots of skiing, wineries, and we have direct flights to Penticton to Calgary via West Jet,” she says.
Suite features include heated tile floors in the kitchen and bathroom, wine fridges, in-unit washer/dryers, and gas lines for barbecues. There are also two rooftop patios with stunning views of the lake.
Ask about the $5,000 upgrade special, available until March 31.
Arrow Waterfront Properties in Castlegar is an all-season development offering floor plans ranging from two to four bedrooms, and 895 to 1,540 square feet on a site right on scenic Arrow Lake, steps from a private 100-slip marina.
“The lake never freezes over and it’s a full waterway to the U.S., and it’s great for fishing and boating,” says Mundell.
Arrow is a family-oriented development with an onsite manager who provides concierge services (including making sure your fridge is stocked when you arrive, Mundell says), a provincial park nearby, and suites include 200-square-foot balconies to let you embrace the view.
Mundell says Arrow is offering the choice of $10,000 in free upgrades or a year’s access to a marina slip; ask for details.
