With Phase One built and nearly sold out, Omicron is primed to begin construction on Phase Two by spring 2014. It’s an exciting time, as several other West Shore projects have slowed or changed shape. Omicron built Coho 1 and now, preparations for Coho 2 are well underway. Located a stone’s throw from the Island Highway – but gracefully poised at the top of a hill, far from the hum of traffic – Coho 2 offers a mix of one-and two-bedroom units ($199,900 - $238,900 for one-bedrooms; $279,900 - $363,900 for two-bedrooms), as well as stylish finishing and the rock-solid reputation of award-winning design, engineering and construction firm, Omicron. Omicron’s portfolio includes projects for clients like BC Hydro, Telus, Home Depot and Simon Fraser University. Residential real estate developments like Coho 2 are a natural progression for Omicron, given the firm’s history of designing and building multi-family residential projects here and in the lower mainland (including Fifty-Five 55 Dunbar in Vancouver and the soon-to-be Eagle Creek Village near Victoria General Hospital). coho2 Situated close to community amenities, Coho 2 boasts Thrifty Foods, the Juan de Fuca Rec Centre and various restaurants and services within a one-kilometre radius. The property itself is stunning. “You won’t find a lot of sites that are perched on top of a hill,” says Alvin Zhu, Development Manager for Omicron. “A lot of developers have sites on main roads; we’re set back, where you don’t hear the noise.” With so many buyers interested in two-bedroom units, Omicron has accommodated this trend by planning a greater number of two-beds (about 80%) for the second phase of Coho 2. Another draw is its pet-friendly stance – a rarity in Victoria. With the Thetis Lake and Galloping Goose trails only minutes away, Coho 2 makes great sense for pet owners and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Flexible financing solutions for new buyers, as well as helpful tips for downsizers are just the icing on the Coho 2 cake. Learn more about COHO2
