Walk Through
Topography
Easy-care landscaping with mature plantings, water feature, and a private patio that frames the Salish Sea.
Set on the ridge for unobstructed 180° views of Satellite Channel, Salt Spring Island and Mount Baker on clear days.
Vancouver Island's Cowichan Valley enjoys Canada's mildest climate — long dry summers and green, temperate winters.
The Community
Arbutus Ridge is one of Canada's first and most desirable gated adult communities — over 640 homes spread across 148 waterfront acres of protected forests, gardens and an adjoining 18-hole golf course.
Modelled after the iconic Del Webb Sun City community in Arizona, the Ridge is connected by a network of oceanfront walking trails and centred on a vibrant Village Centre — the social heart of the neighbourhood.
One person on title must be 55+ to reside. Roughly 70% couples / 30% singles.
