DESCRIPTION
The Bungalow is a charming seniors home sold in the beautiful setting of Creston, British Columbia. It’s storied history, rock-solid construction, and stunning renovations make this a rare and profitable venture.
The building was purpose-built as a seniors facility by the Province of British Columbia in 1980. It was “overbuilt” in the best sense of the word, with a level of construction quality rarely seen at the time.
Due to politics, the facility was shuttered in 2005, sat dormant, was finally purchased in 2015. Renovations began. The empty building was sold privately in 2017. Renovations were completed to the highest level of quality. The Bungalow is now one of the finest seniors facilities anywhere in the Kootenay region.
Amenities for the residents are extensive. The commercial kitchen is staffed by a Red Seal chef providing sumptuous meals every evening. Cozy seating areas, multiple lounges, and a grand dining hall filled with natural light give residents abundant area to socialize. A fitness space, physical therapy room and alfresco walking paths keep people moving and healthy.
