There’s no doubt about it; the Okanagan is growing and will continue to grow. To accommodate existing and new residents there is now Crystal Heights at the Lakes. Crystal Heights is part of the master planned community, The Lakes, located in Lake Country between Wood Lake and Okanagan Lake. Three hundred acres have been set aside to contain approximately 1,200 homes of all types.
It brings together two impressive B.C. developers; the Citimark Group and Western Construction. Together they have designed, built and marketed this beautiful new community in Lake Country. Both companies specialize in wood frame, residential construction. Their homes are known for being well designed, well built, and for their locations in premier, family friendly neighborhoods.
Crystal Heights is the first development in the Okanagan by Citimark and Western. It consists of well conceived design, attention to detail, quality construction and professional marketing and after sale service.
People are already starting to fall in love with this community and when you go there, you’ll know why. As you come into the community you see well spaced two and three-storey homes with West Coast inspired craftsman architecture. One thing that stands out is that these semi-detached homes have only one neighbour and natural light on three sides.
When you step inside you’ll appreciate the light filled rooms and free flowing floor plans. This really is a place you can call home. At Crystal Heights you have your choice of modern or traditional colour schemes with durable interior finishing.
The gourmet kitchens come with Whirlpool stainless steel appliances, modern cabinets with stainless steel finish pulls, granite counter tops, under mount kitchen lighting as well as ceiling pot and pendant lighting. The double stainless steel sink and spacious kitchen island make this a cook’s dream kitchen. Outside of every kitchen lies a balcony, porch or patio for outdoor dining. Every home comes with high efficiency, central forced heating and air conditioning. Throw in the essentials like built-in wire shelving in the closets and pantries and handy storage in the garage, and you have plenty of space to enjoy.
There are laminate floors throughout and cut loop carpet on the upper floor, stairs and bedrooms. For those cooler nights, you can snuggle up in front of the cozy (and efficient) living room fireplace with designer surround.
Let’s not forget the bathrooms. Each home has a minimum of two full bathrooms and a powder room on the main level. Larger plans offer three and a half baths. All master bedrooms have a private ensuite with modern square sinks, full width vanity mirrors and distinctive floor and wall tiles. After a hard day you can relax in the soaker tub in the main bathroom.
Once you’re all relaxed, watch a show. There are cable jacks in the living room, family room, den and all bedrooms for television and high speed internet. The wall above the fireplace is prewired with cable, power and component cable conduit for easy installation of a flat screen TV.
Every home at Crystal Heights is safe and secure. Each home comes with a 2-5-10 home warranty by Travelers. All windows are vinyl and double-glazed. Smoke detectors are hardwired and the homes have been pre-wired for the alarm system of your choice.
Leaving home may be hard, but when you do the beauty of the Okanagan awaits you.
