Copper Beech will feature a variety of floor plans including studio, one bedroom and two bedroom homes, with pricing ranging from $300,000 to $650,000.** Sales are set to begin this month, and the homes are expected to be move in ready in the fall or winter of 2019.

Here are a few reasons why people will love calling Copper Beech home.

The community

Copper Beech has the advantage of being set back on the quiet street of Saucier Avenue, without being far from the action. The location is super convenient with shopping centers, bike paths and the downtown core all within walking distance.

The recently upgraded bike path and walking lane on Ethel Street is the perfect place to take a ride or a stroll. A new Active Transportation Corridor (ATC) that will run from Clement Avenue to Raymer Aveneue along Ethel Street is also in the works, connecting the downtown and South Pandosy areas.

Living somewhere so central makes it easy to get involved in the community, attend events and support local businesses. Purchasers will even have the added bonus of receiving a special ‘Welcome Home Basket’ including local wines, foods and gift certificates to local shops to help kickstart the fun.

A little bit of history

Kelowna may not boast any castles or famous ancient landmarks, but that doesn’t mean it lacks history — and what history there is, it’s important to preserve and appreciate.

Copper Beech is being built on land that was occupied by a historical home, which the developers have chosen to relocate rather than demolish. The large, old Copper Beech tree on the property is also being protected, hence the name of the new development.

Cement and steel framing

The original plan for Copper Beech was to use a wood frame, but the developers decided to make the switch to steel and cement due to its many benefits.

Not only do steel and cement help to significantly reduce noise transfer, which is often a concern for those debating living in a condo, but they are more durable and resistant to elements such as fire, mold, corrosion and bugs.

Plus, steel studs are dimensionally stable, eliminating issues such as nail pops and unsightly drywall cracks. Overall, having a more sound structural build reduces the need for fix-ups overtime and increases resale value.

The homes

It’s a good thing that getting out in the community is so convenient, because with homes like the ones in Copper Beech, it can be pretty tempting to just stay in.

Purchasers can choose from a variety of high-end finishes to customize the look of their home, which includes stylish palette options and features like tile flooring, quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances.

For added convenience, safety and environmentalism, Copper Beech will also be decked out in smart home features including smartphone-controlled thermal and cooling systems, smart door locks, motion sensor lighting and window and door sensors.

The property will also have its own private charging stations for those with electric vehicles, and an on-site fitness facility. Oh yeah, and each unit has its own wine fridge, which should definitely come in handy.
