New lots and homes in Wilden in 2018
Special To The Okanagan Weekend
Construction work in Wilden is now full speed ahead to create new single-family lots for 2018.
Also under construction are paired townhomes in various sizes. Further multi-family developments are on the drawing board.
Work will also commence on the Wilden Village and its commercial centre. The amenities that will be gathered in the Wilden Market Square will include shops and services, cafés and restaurants.
Wilden meets growing demand and stays true to master plan.
There couldn’t be a better time to develop new living space and community-enhancing infrastructure within Wilden, both of which have been rooted in the master plan from day one.
The Kelowna metropolitan area has the fastest population growth in Canada, and it is not expected to slow down any time soon.
Given that Wilden is just 10 minutes from downtown and 15 minutes from the airport and UBC, higher-density pockets at the community’s core will be much needed.
However, it is important for the Blenk family, the developers of Wilden, that moving forward will not compromise the essence of Wilden life.
The master plan ensures that approximately half the land will be preserved as open space or public park. There will always be greenbelts and wetlands restored to be wildlife habitats, and every home will have a close-by access to recreational park areas.
Wilden will continue to be one of these rare places in the world where you can live in a natural setting with stunning views and be just 10 minutes away from a vibrant city. LOST CREEK POINT Townhomes Phase one is coming in summer 2018. These 38 paired homes border one of Wilden’s most family friendly neighbourhoods, Lost Creek.
Buyers can choose from four different house plans ranging from 2,000 to 3,600 square feet.
Most homes will take advantage of the pristine valley views. For a select few in phase 3, exceptional city and lakeview homes will be offered.
Lost Creek Point residents will enjoy a lock-and-leave lifestyle and nature literally at the front door, while just a 10-minute drive away from downtown Kelowna. ECHO RIDGE Singe Family Lots Wilden’s newest single-family neighbourhood is coming early summer 2018.
Echo Ridge is located in an incredible pocket of land tucked into the hills next to the Wilden Skylands with a second entrance just off Upper Canyon Road.
The dynamic topography in Echo Ridge allows for 105 incredible building sites ranging from large pool size lots with valley view to smaller level and walkout lots on safe and quiet cul-de-sacs.
Wilden and their designers are working on 27 new house plans specifically designed for Echo Ridge to be released in spring 2018.
