"Watch This House Grow Into a Home"...


February 17th, 2010

 Watch a new house grow into a Home!  4511 Garry St. Richmond, BC

Welcome to our first blog posting for Balandra Development Inc.’s newest home called the “Cumana” in Steveston, BC. We hope you will follow our frequent updates which show you how the home is built and will introduce the trades people and consultants who make it happen. During and after construction Taylor Biggar and me, Larry Biggar will be marketing the Cumana. As longtime Realtors in Steveston we are proud to represent this benchmark home.

First, an artists rendering provides a guideline for the building team to follow and a good representation of the finished product for prospective Buyers.

The team from “Legend Construction”  are currently framing the house and preparing the house for the upcoming stages.

Brian, the “Boss” with Legend Construction, oversees operations and manages the framing team.

The separate building is a first for new homes in Richmond. We envision it could be a studio, office, teens rec room, Nanny room or? What do you suggest?

In the days and weeks to come we will introduce you to the Buider, the Designer, the Interior designer and many more who will make this an amazing home.

 

We invite questions anytime.


Watch this home grow over the next 6 months...stay tuned for our next Blog Post on February 19th.
