Renowned for decades as a great vacation spot, Penticton, with its serene surroundings, lakefront access and great amenities, has morphed into a vibrant, family-friendly community. Another reason is Sokana.
When Liane and Bruce Van Raalte of Squamish were looking to purchase homes for their children, they were drawn to Penticton. After discovering Sokana, they were sold.
"We were looking at ways of getting our kids into the market now rather than waiting years until they were settled,” says the Van Raaltes. “Sokana was the perfect opportunity for us to secure two units at today’s prices with the ability to assign to children in the future when it completes.”
The couple went on to say how Penticton reminded them a lot of how Squamish was 10 years ago.
“We believe it is on the cusp of some exciting growth and becoming a vibrant hub for the South Okanagan,” says the couple. “There are no other developments in Penticton that offer the quality and amenities that Sokana offers, which is complemented by the amazing lifestyle of the area and a very reputable developer/builder."
After a record-setting sell-out of Sokana’s Boardwalk, Kerkhoff introduces the final phase – Riverview. Bordering the Penticton Channel, Riverview is a six-storey wood-framed building showcasing a resort-inspired collection of 138 studios, one, two and three-bedroom homes.
Best of all, for a LIMITED time only, Kerkhoff is offering its 30 for 30 Program, a $30K credit on 30 homes at Sokana*.
Conceived by Formosis Architecture and Portico Design Group, the Scandinavian-inspired light-filled residences make you think of calm waters and sandy beaches of Okanagan Lake, with their warm wood tones throughout, oversized windows to maximize natural light and views, premium luxury vinyl plank flooring and airy ceilings aloft.
For the culinary master in your home, the modern chef-inspired kitchens aim to impress, with large islands with a sink, wood-grain two-toned cabinetry, contemporary large format tile backsplash, Samsung appliances and polished quartz countertops.
Meanwhile, when the sun starts to set, enjoy a glass of B.C.’s finest wines from your private patio with glass panelling to maximize the views.
In addition to its focus on functional and creative design, Sokana will emphasize outdoor amenities just as much as indoor ones, allowing residents to recharge and socialize.
Overlooking the rolling hills on the third level podium of Boardwalk, Sokana’s shared resort-style amenities include a landscaped courtyard with pool and hot tub, outdoor games area, green space to practice yoga or relax, an al fresco dining pavilion with kitchen, and lounge areas – a perfect oasis for entertaining friends and family. In addition, both Boardwalk and Riverview will have its own fitness facilities.
Right next door to the Riverside Village Mall and Penticton Channel, Sokana is within a short leisurely drive to discover the Brewery District and award-winning boutique wineries and distilleries that stretch across Naramata Bench, the jewel of the Okanagan Valley wine country. Explore farther, to hike the Skaha Bluffs, bike the Kettle Valley Rail Trail, ski Apex Mountain Resort, stargaze at the Observatory and float the Penticton Channel.
