WINFIELD, BC. New to market. Thirteen brand new industrial strata units at IntraUrban McCarthy, Building 2 at 9640 McCarthy Road, are now available for sale or lease. Pricing starts at $250 per square foot, which the developer is positioning below replacement cost, and occupancy is immediate. I am co-listing the project with my colleague Sam Nakhleh, Senior Vice President, Investment at NAI Commercial.
This is the most significant block of new light industrial strata inventory to hit the Winfield and North Kelowna corridor in some time. Here is what has come to market and who it fits.
What Is Being Offered
Building 2 contains 13 units ranging from 3,388 SF to 5,445 SF, with a contiguous total of 46,741 SF for a user or investor who wants the whole building. Units can be combined for businesses that need more than a single bay.
- Unit 101: 4,028 SF
- Units 102 to 112: 3,388 SF each
- Unit 113: 5,445 SF
Every unit comes with a built-in concrete second floor mezzanine. On a standard 3,388 SF unit that is 2,380 SF on the main floor and 1,008 SF of mezzanine, so the warehouse area and the office or showroom space are both real, usable floor plates rather than an afterthought.
Pricing and Lease Terms
- Sale price: from $847,000, or $250 PSF
- Introductory lease rate: $10.00 PSF net in Year 1 for leases of five years or longer
- Additional rent: $6.64 PSF
- Occupancy: immediate
At $250 PSF for new concrete construction with 28 foot clear height and a finished mezzanine, the pricing is the headline. Owner-occupiers can buy at a number that is difficult to replicate by building new today, and investors get a new asset with no deferred maintenance and a broad tenant pool.

- Clear height: 28 feet in the main warehouse area
- Loading: one 12 foot by 14 foot grade level overhead door per unit
- Floor load: 500 lbs per SF on the main floor, 100 lbs per SF on the mezzanine
- Power: 1 x 200 amp, 3-phase, 120/208 V per unit

The Developer
IntraUrban McCarthy is developed by PC Urban, whose IntraUrban brand has delivered a series of small-bay industrial strata projects across BC. The design here follows that formula: clean architecture, flexible unit sizes, and specifications aimed at the widest range of light industrial and commercial users.
Who This Fits
The I2 General Industrial zoning and the unit design make the building suitable for light manufacturing, trades and contractors, distribution and e-commerce fulfilment, service businesses that need a warehouse with a front office, recreational vehicle and boat storage, and investors looking for new small-bay industrial with a deep tenant pool in a growing region.
If you are a Lower Mainland business looking at the Okanagan for expansion or relocation, the combination of new product, immediate occupancy, and a price per foot well below what comparable space costs in Metro Vancouver is worth a serious look.
