Shadow Mountain Sells 190 Lots in one Weekend
CRANBROOK BC – The massive real estate development, which will be situated around a 19 hole golf course, sold 190 lots on their opening weekend of sales.
“It was the first day that we could actually sell, and on Saturday we sold about 120 lots by the end of the day. By the end of the weekend there was about 190 lots sold.” Developer Fred Mehl said, “It was a nice variety from high end lots – the highest lot was $719,000 and lot of the lower end lots $119,000 – $129,000.”
Shadow Mountain Lifestyle Community, located along side the St. Mary’s River, just minutes from the Canadian Rockies International Airport features stunning views of the both the Rocky and Purcell Mountains. The development is build around a 19 hole golf course that will be one of the largest in BC.
The sales team Irene and Wayne Barnes are thrilled with sales launch, “This is just such an amazing opportunity, we have been overwhelmed with positive feedback from all our clients. We put this product forward not as sales representatives, but as future neighbors in this new community, as we purchased here too. If the views, the location and the golf course were not enough, it is this strong sense of community which put this development well above the rest.”
These sales figures represents about one third of the approximate 600 lots that will constitute the Shadow Mountain Development.
Fred Mehl spoke of the process of getting ready for the sale: “We needed the final approvals from the City and the Province and we were going through that process, and all of that has fallen into place. Now we are in the position to sell for the next couple of years. and hopefully sell this project out.”
Shadow Mountain falls within the city limits of the newly expanded city of Cranbrook, and although it has attracted buys from outside the region some area residents will also call it home.
“A lot of people have looked at the Kelowna or the Victoria marketplace and price differences are certainly there, and I think with the proximity of the airport, made this a pretty special place.” Mehl said.
