Parvinder and Renuka Jandu saw so much demand for their 16 apartment units north of Carlsville in the Town of Egg Harbor that they began construction on 24 more this month.

“We kept getting calls from people working up north who needed to have a place to live,” said “Parv” Jandu, who built two eight-unit apartment buildings, with garages for each unit, in 2019 and 2022 for the JRR Apartments behind the JP Express in Egg Harbor, which the couple also owns. 

The Town of Egg Harbor Plan Commission on Oct. 9 approved the architectural plans for the project immediately south of the gas station and convenience store. The property matched use requirements, as it’s adjacent to land where the other apartments were approved.

“Any more housing we can add is a plus for Door County, and Parv does a nice job on them – they’re nice apartments,” said Steve Schopf, Egg Harbor Town Chair.

Jandu said people on a waiting list have requested just a few of the units in the buildings that will be completed this fall. As of Feb. 19 on the currently-operating units, Jandu had rent prices at $1,300 for two-bedroom, 1,200-square-foot units, and $1,500 for three bedrooms. Each includes utilities and use of a garage, he said.

Tielens Construction will handle the project. Sitework began last week. 

Town Clerk-Treasurer Pam Krauel said the building inspector will make sure stakes for the work match setback requirements. 

Krauel said some construction equipment will access the site from Highway 42, but there will not be a permanent access from the highway, and residents will drive to the apartments from Monument Point Road.
