TORONTO, ON, Dec. 18, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Easton Pharmaceuticals Inc. (OTC: EAPH) announces that it has closed on an Agreement to acquire a Real Estate Development Project just outside of Toronto, Ontario with 3 year cumulative profits expected to exceed $30,000,000 Canadian.
As part of its plan to enter more lucrative market segments, Easton is pleased to announce that it has now completed its purchase of a development property in Cobourg, Ontario, a growing lakefront community just 1 hour east of Toronto. The property is approximately 2.5 acres and is zoned for a multi-residential development to allow up-to 48 units. There is an existing 10,000 square foot historic mansion on the property, which has approval to be converted into 6 luxury residential condominiums. The historic mansion was a summer home of the Abbotts of Pittsburg where the Carnegies were known to summer at.
The Company intends on building 42 residential units over the next 3 years, with the first phase approved and ready for 6 units in the existing mansion. The mansion retains much of its original character, which is attractive to many heritage homebuyers. The projected cumulative pre-tax profits are expected to be in excess of $30 million Canadian. The projected profits of the first phase are expected to be in excess of $2 million Canadian within the first 12 months. The conversion will create 6 luxurious units of varying sizes between 800 sq. ft. to over 2,500 sq. ft. The market is very strong among professional couples re-locating outside of the City, young families, as well as retirees, all seeking a better quality of life.
The Company has already commenced the application process for its permits to begin the conversion and construction and intends on setting up a sales office/model within the existing mansion to pre-sell the units.
Easton’s management has vast experience in real estate and real estate development projects and is excited to launch this as its first real estate development project to coincide with its other business segments. More information about the project will be released once details are finalized.
