San Francisco, CA – PCCP, LLC announced today it has formed a joint venture with Intracorp for the ground-up development of two, for-sale townhouse projects totaling 129 units within the Puget Sound region. The portfolio includes Kelkari, a 71-unit community located in the eastside city of Issaquah, WA; and Cloverdale, a 58-unit community located in the South Beacon Hill neighborhood of Seattle. With this joint venture, ground is now being broken on each of the sites which are development ready, with all entitlements, building permits, and contracts in place.
“This is PCCP’s first joint venture with Intracorp and we are pleased to be an equity partner with this experienced, local developer. Our venture aims to deliver well-located, high-quality, housing product within one of the strongest and fastest growing regional economies in the country,” said Dorian Farhang vice president with PCCP.
The new home market in the Puget Sound region over the past five years has been very active, and inventory levels have fallen creating a demand for for-sale residential product. Following are details on each project:
Kelkari: Located in Issaquah just one-mile south of downtown Issaquah, the Kelkari project will consist of 71, three-story townhome units with a mix of three and four bedrooms with an average size of approximately 2,000 square feet. All units will feature upgraded finishes including polished quartz countertops, tile flooring, and gas range stoves and will have two-car side by side garages. The project is within an affluent suburb 15 miles east-southeast of Seattle and along Interstate 90. Its neighboring cities are Bellevue to the west and Sammamish to the north. Issaquah is known for its excellent quality of life and easy access to parks, hiking and biking trails, and skiing. Issaquah is home to a number of large corporate tenants, namely Microsoft and Costco, which has its headquarters along I-90. Additionally, the site is within a scenic setting located in the desirable Eastside/I-90 corridor and within the well regarded Issaquah School district.
Cloverdale: Located within the City of Seattle in the neighborhood of South Beacon Hill, Cloverdale will include two and three-bedroom homes with an average size of 1,570 square feet and will include row houses, paired homes, townhomes, and single-family detached homes and will feature quality interior finishes. The site is on four separate blocks and will have a master-planned look and feel offering residents a quiet, community atmosphere. The single family homes and the row houses will have a detached parking garage and the remaining units will have attached parking garages. The location is .3 miles from the Rainier Beach Light Rail Station and is 2.5 miles from Interstate 5 offering a 10-minute drive into downtown Seattle. In 2012, the City of Seattle up-zoned South Beacon Hill as part of an initiative to promote an economic uptick via denser housing.
