First client takes possession of property at The Grove Spa Resort

David Pepper was the first client to take delivery of his apartment on 15th September 2010. David is pictured here in the kitchen of his penthouse in Block A receiving the keys from Joanne Patterson from InvestinCyprus.com Developers Customer Services. David inspected the apartment, transferred his utility accounts and installed all his furniture and window coverings in a jam-packed short trip to the island. He will return in October for a holiday with his family in his new property.

Site Progress Meeting 8th September 2010

Plot A
Plot A

The apartments on Plot A, ie those in Blocks A, B, G and H are now finished and fully snagged internally. We are waiting for delivery of the last pieces of expansion joint materials to enable the rest of the communal external area to be completed.

The site was due for handover by the construction company on 1st September but due to a few items still to finish off externally, as well as waiting for the electricity authority to finish the testing and commissioning of the electricity supply to each apartment, we will now take possession of the site on 5th October. Delivery of Plot B (comprising Blocks C, D, E and F) will be on 20th October. This new handover timetable does not affect the delivery of the apartments which are finished and undergoing final snagging ahead of the delivery to clients between 15th September and 15th November.

All garden areas have now been planted and the artificial grass installed between Blocks A, H, G and B which gives a cool, calm feeling to the resort.

The utility companies have finished the installation of water and electricity connections around the development so the road construction is now underway. With so much messy work going on around the edges of the resort to complete the roads and pathways we are delaying filling the pools until the end of the month.

Finishing the main car park of the Spa building

We spent time this week with potential operators of the restaurant and supermarket and also continued with the interviews for resort staff. The Spa building continues to shape up well.
