The Comox Valley offers a multitude of year-round activity options for residents, but in the summer the community really comes alive, with major arts and music festivals, outdoor pursuits including boating and fishing, golf, hiking and biking and more.

Living at The Ridge in Courtenay provides the opportunity to be immersed in this Island lifestyle - with views of the ocean and mountains from your porch or patio, the great outdoors will be calling. Whether you prefer to stroll the gardens at the world famous Filberg Arts Festival or Comox Marina during Nautical Days, dance the days away at Vancouver Island Music Festival, or lounge the afternoon away on any one of many sandy beaches, you can enjoy golfing, mountain bike riding, battling a Tyee salmon, or hiking pristine forest trails.

The Ridge offers residents an outstanding opportunity to enjoy the lifestyle that makes Vancouver Island so popular. From outdoor pursuits to arts and culture, you will find it all in the Comox Valley communities of Courtenay, Comox and Cumberland. The Ridge is one of Courtenay's newest communities and is located in south Courtenay with views of the Georgia Strait, Comox Glacier, and more.

Phase 1 of the community is now 50% sold, and about 20 new custom houses are now complete. Lots start at $169,000, with new homes priced from about $430,000 (which includes the lot and the landscaping). The preferred builders at The Ridge are Lawmar Contracting and Brando Construction. Both builders have show homes available to tour at open houses every weekend from 12-2pm.

The Ridge at RiversEdge is a new residential community located in Courtenay on Vancouver Island. Fringed by the Puntledge River, The Ridge at RiversEdge is a unique development in which each new rancher/bungalow is perfectly suited for its individual lot, yet still complements neighbouring homes to create a harmonious community.

In addition, you'll always have your privacy in your own back yard.

"The builder, Southwind Developments Corporation, is the only company in the Comox Valley that controls the entire development and building process from start to finish," says Courtenay Realtor Art Meyer, project realtor. "For projects that Southwind undertakes, they buy the raw land, service it, build the homes, and warranty each home for 10 years. You know precisely what your neighbourhood will look like. That’s the secret to Southwind’s success."

As well, the owners of Southwind Homes actually live at RiversEdge. When developers live in a community, you can feel secure knowing they'll be there for all and any issues that arise during the 10-year warranty period. The new ranchers at The Ridge at RiversEdge are also the lowest-priced new homes anywhere in the Comox Valley.
