Kelowna Homes for Sale
When people ask me for a list of Kelowna homes for sale they think they’re covering off all bases. In fact, Kelowna has such a variety of homes for sale, that to narrow the parameters can prove very helpful. Being a true 4-season playground, the location of your real estate can be critical to your choice of homes.
Golf Course Properties
For instance Kelowna has over 50 golf courses where housing is either overlooking the course or nearby. On many of these golf courses, you’ll find detached homes for sale, semi-detached, townhomes, and condominiums in a variety of price ranges.
Kelowna’s Luxury Homes, Water front, Orchards
Kelowna and the Okanagan Valley is known on the world wine circuit for its spectacular vineyards that are capable of producing national and international award winning wines. Integrated into and around a number of these orchards are some premium Kelowna homes for sale.
Lake Okanagan is 100 miles long and if you’re into boating, getting a piece of waterfront real estate might be your ideal Kelowna home. Price points have been met at various levels on Kelowna MLS® stats that indicate people not only love their fully detached homes, but semi-detached, bare-land strata, townhomes, and condos on the lake.
Ski Resort Real Estate
Last, but not least, when you’re thinking about homes for sale in Kelowna, consider that we have 2 world class ski hills. MLS® listings on both Big White and Silver Star Mountains have shown great activity this year with more and more sales. The beauty of both these destinations is that they are a short drive to Kelowna, so if you choose to call a mountain chalet, townhouse, or condo “home” you’ll still be close to the big city!
Green Real Estate
Fairly new on the Kelowna homes for sale radar are environmentally sustainable homes. The City of Kelowna has looked very favorably on developers who can obtain LEED designations as well as an affordable housing component in their projects. Central Green downtown is a great example of what we can expect to see more of in the future. Also watch for groups like (Blue Green Living Communities http://www.livingcommunities.ca/) who create new ways to incorporate multiple green building features, and promote sustainability through community design.
