Paragon at Columbia Overlook Receives ‘Highest Lease Up Pace’ Award from Delta Associates
Baltimore, Maryland (PRWEB) October 10, 2014 -- Paragon at Columbia Overlook, a new luxury, green apartment community in Columbia, Maryland, has been honored by the Delta Associates at their 18th Annual Apartment and Condominium Industry Awards for Excellence. Paragon at Columbia Overlook was named the Baltimore metro area’s apartment community with the ‘Highest Lease Up Pace’.
"Paragon has leased up at 28 homes per month", reported Josh E. Fidler, Co-Chairman of its developer, Chesapeake Realty Partners. "Our unbeatable location, right at I-95 and Route 175 in Columbia, and highly desirable design features have proven quite appealing."
Paragon at Columbia Overlook is located next to the Costco and Trader Joe's adjoining the Gateway Overlook Shopping Center. It began accepting applications in March of this year and is already over 52% leased. The community features five distinctive, four-story, elevator-served apartment buildings with a total of 320 apartments offering 1 and 2 bedroom floor plans.
In addition to spacious apartments with 9 foot ceilings, granite countertops, high-end wood cabinetry, and upgraded flooring, Paragon at Columbia Overlook offers a unique set of amenities to its residents. Tailored to the active lifestyles of the surrounding community, Paragon features a first-class Resident's Club, 24/7 fitness center with on-demand, virtual fitness classes, saltwater pool, greenhouse and Adventure Center. The Adventure Center features an area to repair bikes and provides storage for kayaks and canoes. The community is pet-friendly with a bark park and pet-washing station to please our four-legged friends.
Lawrence M. Macks, Co-Chairman of Chesapeake Realty Partners said, "The Paragon lifestyle allows residents all the "me time" they crave, with proximity to shopping, recreation and transportation, and Columbia provides the opportunities to engage in the activities they love.”
In recognition of today’s environmental sensibilities, Paragon has been built to NGBS Gold standards. In order to be certified, the community must achieve high standards for building construction, heating and cooling systems, appliances, hot water heating, lighting, and indoor air quality, just to name a few.
"With such a desirable location and an impressive list of amenities, it’s not surprising Paragon at Columbia Overlook has achieved the Baltimore Metro area’s highest lease up pace," said Leonard Frenkil, President of the property's management company, WPM Real Estate Management.
