Vancouver Island Real Estate
Vancouver Island luxury homes can be found on any corner of its expansive 12,000 square miles, although a large portion of the homes are concentrated in larger towns and cities such as Qualicum Beach, Parksville, Nanaimo, and Ladysmith. Along the way, houses dot the ocean waters, surround lakes, or sit above tall cliffs. For an inner-city lifestyle, look to the condos and high-rise penthouses in the major communities or the single-family homes in family-oriented neighbourhoods. For a tranquil lifestyle, the oceanfront and lakefront estates are some of the most desirable properties on the island.
Top Vancouver Island Highlights And Amenities
Known for its relaxed pace and outdoor focus, living on Vancouver Island means all the benefits of island time, as well as moderate weather and year-round breathtaking views. Its unique ecosystem creates a sort of pocket climate for each area, and there's almost always sunshine in one town or another. Cities like Nanaimo provide job opportunities, while smaller communities appeal to nature-lovers and retirees.
Hiking, kayaking, canoeing, ATVing and other outdoor activities are at the heart of most residents' weekend plans, and with weather to suit it, your chances of being snowed in are slim. During the warmer months, residents dip their feet in the ocean water or take a swim in one of the many area lakes. For summer fun, Sproat Lake, Cameron Lake, and Cowichan Lake are some of the warmest and most popular on the island, and provide an abundance of scenic trails, parks, and campsites in the area.
