A large, not-for-profit CCRC that is home to 300 residents in Wilmington, North Carolina is set to break ground on an expansion project to the tune of nearly $57 million. Opened in 1988 on property donated by retired railroad executive Champion “Champ” McDowell Davis, Plantation Village sits on 58 acres. It is managed by Iowa-based Life Care Services, which will help oversee the expansion. The project will include 44 new homes in four new buildings, with two-bed/two-bath and two-bed/2.5-bath options starting at 1,515 square feet that include under-building garage parking. There will also be new indoor and outdoor dining venues and services. CJMW Architecture and Frank L Blum Construction, both based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, are working on the project. The development cost comes to about $1.3 million per unit, which is high, but these are large, luxury units built on land a mile away from the coast and surrounded by golf courses.
