January 13, 2009 - MIAMI, FL – The announcement follows the rapid sell-out of Fortune’s first two projects in Argentina – the luxurious Village Plaza condominiums and the upscale Village Office retail/office center, both of which are also located in Cordoba.
“We are delighted to be expanding our presence in Latin America, especially in Argentina, which is where I have my family roots,” says Edgardo Defortuna president and CEO of Fortune International. “So to be able to strengthen our presence in Argentina with sophisticated developments like Chateau Village and Village Plaza is certainly exciting for us. We believe that new communities like these will continue to strengthen our position across the region as the experts in the real estate industry, as well as further demonstrate Fortune’s commitment to expanding in new, innovative and up and coming locations throughout Latin America."
Chateau Village is located in Cordoba’s fashionable “Cerro de las Rosas” district, one of the most sought-after places to live in the province. The neighborhood offers residents a variety of vibrant live, work, and play activities including five-star dining, high-end cultural and exciting entertainment venues. Cordoba still retains a rich colonial heritage and the construction of new buildings, shopping centers and entertainment destinations enhances it with a chic and modern feel. Córdoba also offers an appealing array of activities, including swimming, climbing, fishing, horseback riding, walking and bicycling, making the area an ideal and popular place to live.
The French-inspired, Chateau Village’s design envelopes the residential community, which extends over six acres of lushly landscaped grounds. Residences feature open floor plans, private terraces, stainless steel kitchen appliances, granite countertops and wood cabinetry. These one-, two-, and three-bedroom units also boast lavish baths with travertine floors and all of the other high-end modern amenities international buyers are looking for today. In addition, Chateau Village also has a beautiful swimming pool and state-of-the-art fitness center. Prices for the three-building complex start at approximately $250,000.
Chateau Village is situated adjacent to the recently sold-out Village Plaza, also developed and marketed by Fortune. This exclusive community, Fortune’s first in Argentina, also features a fitness center, two outdoor swimming pools, a Jacuzzi and sauna, as well as a tennis court.
Fortune’s commercial project in Cordoba, Office Village, consists of ground-level retail spaces and large office spaces and is located adjacent to Village Plaza, thereby providing retail conveniences for the residents and offices for homeowners desiring a quick commute to work.
“I believe our success in Latin America can be directly attributed to our experience in the industry, our focus on upscale development and our knowledge of the growing real estate marketplace throughout Latin America,” said Defortuna. “Our plan is to continue looking for the high end development opportunities as well as potential partnerships in the real estate sector in Argentina and throughout Latin America.”
