$100M+ “Zoomer” Development Planned for B.C.’s Okanagan
Ariva Resorts revealed plans for a more than $100-million innovative 200-home gated community five minutes from downtown Kelowna, BC. Barry Johnson, Ariva Resorts founder who came out of retirement to lead the condo development project, says it targets so-called “zoomers,” (active baby boomers), downsizing from their traditional homes.
Johnson notes the lifestyle desires of this group have been largely ignored by the industry, and “we intend to change that thinking. This group is highly active, health conscious and want to live life to its fullest,” he says.
The company plans on breaking ground in 2020, and envisions a four-year build out with prices ranging from $500,000 to $1.9 million for units range from 1,250 to 1,760 square feet. They will feature exceptionally large outdoor decks that create a great room when glass lake-view interior doors are opened.
