Luxury home construction to start soon

The following press release was sent recently to Okanagan media.

One of the largest resort construction projects in the Okanagan Valley is set to begin going vertical in a few short months, Scott Wilshaw, managing partner of Trepanier Manor Corp., said today.

Crews working through the winter have successfully installed water, fire flow, sanitary sewer, gas and electrical lines to service the luxury real estate and hotel throughout the 25-acre Trepanier Manor property. All on-site servicing is now complete, in addition to the installation of several kilometres of sanitary sewer mains off-site.

“The lights are on at Trepanier Manor and the toilets flush also,” said Scott Wilshaw, project managing partner.

Exterior Victorian coach lighting has been installed along the interior roadway and Trepanier Manor’s grand entranceway and waterfall is now nearly complete.

Construction on five of the 20 luxury homes at Trepanier Manor is set to commence this spring, by exclusive home builder Cardan Enterprises.

Cardan recently received a gold medal from the Canadian Home Builder’s Association at the 2009 Tommie Awards for Home Builder of the Year.

“We are expecting the legal registration of the 20 real estate homes or sale and hotel lot to be completed soon,” said Wilshaw. “It has been a slow and steady process, but we are confident it will be done by the end of March. Then construction can begin.” Trepanier has sold 10 of its 20 homes and expects a good year in 2010 based on the appointments already booked to review the project.

Interviews for construction companies to build the Trepanier Manor boutique hotel are ongoing and a construction start date for the hotel is anticipated in early summer.

Residents are invited to the MacKinnon Road site for Trepanier Manor to see our entranceway, take a tour of the luxury show home and view updated Hotel architectural drawings.
