More Retirees Find the Lifestyle and Value They Want in a New Home at The Ridge in Courtenay

The Ridge on Vancouver Island is one of the best places to buy new real estate for active retirees.

The number of people selling their homes in Canada's major cities and moving or retiring to Vancouver Island is growing. Homeowners in Vancouver, Calgary and Toronto are seeking more value from home ownership, and finding value and a fabulous lifestyle on Vancouver Island.

The Comox Valley, specifically, is being recognized as a top destination for active retirees. With a strong economy, the Comox Valley is known for its festivals, access to oceans, lakes and rivers and skiing at Mount Washington. There’s a new $300 million hospital under construction, large retail shopping centres, North Island College and more. The city of Courtenay is the main commercial hub in the Comox Valley. 

Located only minutes from downtown, The Ridge is a new master-planned residential community, offering lots for sale in Courtenay. Many of these new home sites offer ocean and mountain views.  Approximately 50% of Phase I has been sold and about 20 new homes have been completed, with more under construction.

Lots at the Ridge start at $169,900 and new homes start  from approximately $430,000 (including the lot and landscaping). These custom homes can be built in a variety of styles, including bungalows or two-storey designs. Also, legal secondary suites can be built into your new home or a separate residential building (carriage house) can be built on the same lot - perfect for family, guests, or as a mortgage helper.

The preferred builders at The Ridge -  Brando Construction Ltd. and Lawmar Contracting - have already helped many happy homeowners build their dream homes here. Show homes are available and open house times are 12pm-2pm Saturdays and Sundays, or contact them for a private tour.
