When veteran builder Ledingham McAllister was seeking new real estate development opportunities outside of the Lower Mainland it set its sights on the Okanagan, and its centrepiece, Kelowna.

“The Okanagan is an obvious choice for us,” says Manuela Mirecki, vice-president of markeing at Ledingham McAllister. “Those of us who grew up in B.C. know it for its year-round appeal, be it summer spent at a lakeside cottage, a wine tour in the fall, or a ski trip to one of the many local mountains in the winter. But the region is now gaining national and even international attention and we felt it was time to stake our claim in one of the province’s – if not the country’s – hot spots.”

The result is Waterscapes Kelowna, a meticulously designed master-planned residential community in the heart of downtown Kelowna that is being billeed as one of the largest in the city’s history. When complete, the Waterscapes community in Kelown will bost 778 homes housed in nine buildings, including the signature tower, Skye, a 26-storey structure that will be the tallest building between Vancouver and Calgary and will offer residents sweeping views of Lake Okanagan and the valley beyond.

Waterscapes’ incomparable location adjacent to the Brandt’s Creek Crossing, a historic site located justnorth of downtown Kelowna presales, will give residents the best of both worlds – resort-style living an urban convenience. Waterscapes Kelowna is mere steps from the warm waters of Okanagan Lake and also just a quick stroll to the shops, services, restaurants and cultural amenities offered in the revitalized downtown area.

The first phase of Kelowna Waterscapes is set to hit the market this summer. This initial offering will include tower residences of Skye and the twin lowrise apartment buildings of The Herons. This phase also includes The Cascade Club, a spectacular amenity area that will be conveniently situated between the two Heron buildings. The Waterscapes Club features lushly landscaped grounds with one outdoor pool, two huot tubs, two outdoor kitchens and a barbeque area. Insdie, the first-floor library and fireside lounge offers the perfect retreat while the large bar with cooking facilities that opens onto the barbeque area provides an ideal spot to entertain and socialize. The second floor of the presales Waterscapes Cascade Club has a yoga room and fully equipped fitness centre.

Each residential building at Waterscapes Kelowna is distinctively different and yet perfectly complements its surroundings. Skye is an ultra-contemporary, with a stepped façade, expansive windows and roomy decks from which toenjoy those famously sultry Okanagan evenings. The homes in The Herons will feature more traditional, Whistler-inspired architecture, with stone centre columns and trestle-like heavy timber detailing.
