MEET DESMOND

Desmond Arens grew up in Kamloops, spent years working on a ranch at Pritchard, and after getting married, he moved his family to the Shuswap as soon as he could.  Here he and his wife raised their three children while he worked as General Manager for his family’s business.   Sensing that the time was right for a change, Desmond completed his licensing with BCREA and now uses his extensive knowledge of the Thompson – Shuswap – Okanagan region to assist both buyers and sellers in achieving their Real Estate goals.

    Save time! Save money! Build your lakeview dream home and walk to Pebble Beach and Centennial Field in Blind Bay! Back in early 2019 the original log home that graced this 0.34 acre property burned down leaving only the 34' x 36' walk-out concrete foundation and the 20' long x 22' wide log garage with metal roof that has lane access from the rear of the property. Current owners have done lots of due diligence preparing to build. This includes a structural engineering report on the existing foundation, a septic report, perk test, and new septic field design, plus a Geo tech survey. Two house plans have been created, one using the existing foundation bringing it up to current building code since more than 80% of the structure needs to be rebuilt, and one a new design maximizing the views, sunlight, and land use. There is water on the lot (to the existing foundation) and power from the power pole on the NW corner via an underground line to a sub-panel in the garage. Gas is also at the lot line. There's a ton of potential here for the discerning buyer! Create the Shuswap Lifestyle that you've been craviing! (id:2493) More details
