The Chilliwack community of Sardis
Sardis offers a perfect blend of community, tranquility, and convenience. With easy access to amenities and transportation routes, Sardis is an ideal location for those looking for a peaceful yet well-connected place to call home.
Our first stop takes us to Sardis, a popular and central neighbourhood known for its unbeatable sense of community. Picture this, you've got quiet streets, lush green parks, and friendly neighbours who become lifelong friends. Sardis offers a fantastic balance between tranquility and convenience. With a range of affordable single-family homes, townhouses, and condos, it's a haven for first-time buyers looking for their first home. What I, personally, like the most about Sardis is that it's both gorgeous and central to the most common amenities.
Grocery stores, doctor's offices, pharmacies, convenience stores, you name it, Sardis likely has it. Occasionally, you may have to travel downtown for more complex outings, such as a hospital visit or a quality car dealership, but it's a few minutes down the road tops. The Cottonwood Mall is right on the border of Sardis and downtown Chilliwack. On top of that, not only is Sardis home to excellent schools and recreational facilities, but it also boasts easy access to further shopping centres, restaurants, and major transportation routes. There are several access points to the Highway 1, which will take you in either direction to Hope or headed toward Vancouver. This neighbourhood truly embodies the best of both worlds.
Promontory - A beautiful area overlooking all that Chilliwack has to offer!
Next up is Promontory, a neighborhood that boasts breathtaking views, abundant nature, and a plethora of outdoor activities such as hiking and biking. Whether you’re on a tight budget or looking for a luxury home, Promontory has real estate options that cater to various financial needs, making it a desirable location for first-time homebuyers. It is a neighbourhood that stands tall and offers breathtaking views of Chilliwack and the surrounding mountains.
If you're a nature enthusiast, like me, looking to reconnect with the great outdoors, this is definitely the place for you. Since Promontory is raised above the rest of Chilliwack, many of the communities presented within this neighbourhood have the aforementioned panoramic valley views.
I love the idea of looking out my window every morning and seeing nothing but sky and mountains along with the valley below. BC is one of those places that, if you live in the right area, views are everything, not to mention being a haven for outdoor activities. If hiking trails, biking routes, and parks are your thing, they're right at your doorstep. There are so many options around Promontory. To be honest, I think I've lost count. I've taken my little four-legged lady on several hikes in the area, Mount Tom included. There are easier hikes available with just as much of a view, as well as a range of harder endeavors. The real estate here ranges from spacious family homes to town homes, catering to a variety of budgets. Plus, the community is renowned for its strong sense of pride and camaraderie, making it an ideal place to raise a family.
Fairfield Island - A great place to build a family in Chilliwack
Fairfield Island, with its charm and tranquility, is another neighborhood worth considering. With its serene atmosphere and close-knit community, Fairfield Island offers a peaceful retreat for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.
One of our penultimate destinations brings us to Fairfield Island, a neighbourhood that exudes charm and tranquility. Nestled on a serene island surrounded by the majestic Fraser River, Fairfield Island offers a unique waterfront living experience and plenty of farmland. Not everyone who moves to Chilliwack wants the hustle and bustle of the city. This is a wonderful way to avoid that while still staying close by with all your regular amenities. With its spacious properties and scenic beauty, Fairfield Island is perfect for those seeking a peaceful retreat. Whether it's enjoying a morning stroll along the river or spending a day out in the fields harvesting all the amazing organic produce that you worked so hard to grow yourself, this neighbourhood has it all. It's no wonder that it's highly sought after by first-time buyers looking for just a little slice of paradise.
Eastern Hillsides - Mountain side living with panoramic views
Eastern Hillsides is a neighbourhood that truly captures the essence of mountain living. Situated on the eastern slopes of Chilliwack, this area offers breathtaking panoramic views, fresh mountain air and a sense of tranquility that is hard to find elsewhere. First-time buyers who crave a serene escape from the city will fall in love with Eastern Hillsides. The neighbourhood boasts a range of housing options from contemporary single-family homes to luxurious townhomes. Imagine waking up to stunning sunrises over the mountains and enjoying outdoor activities just steps from your front door. Eastern Hillsides truly offers a peaceful retreat for those seeking a close connection to nature.
Chilliwack Mountain - Beauty and Convenience
Our final destination is Chilliwack Mountain, a neighbourhood that combines the best of both worlds, breathtaking natural beauty and convenient urban amenities.
By convenient, I mean downtown is only about 10 minutes away, but you would never know it. Perched atop a hill overlooking the entire Chilliwack River Valley, Chilliwack Mountain offers a very unique living experience that is really hard to replicate.
First-time buyers looking for an upscale and family-friendly neighbourhood will find their dreams come true in Chilliwack Mountain. The area features a mix of stunning custom-built homes, townhouses and spacious lots. The views from this neighbourhood are simply unmatched with the Chilliwack River winding its way through the valley below.
While I was driving through this neighbourhood for myself just the other day, I fell in love. I consider it my ultimate choice. No matter what words I decide to use here, no matter how creative I get, nothing can truly prepare you for the sights this neighbourhood has to offer, not until you see it for yourself. From the best views to the roadways winding around all of the properties, it just can't be matched. I was completely blown away.
In addition to its natural beauty, because it's so close by, Chilliwack Mountain provides easy access to excellent schools, shopping centres and recreational facilities. It's a place where you can enjoy the serenity of nature while still being close to all the amenities that you need. Whether it's exploring the nearby hiking trails, golfing on one of the many courses or simply unwinding in your own private oasis, and I do mean this literally, Chilliwack Mountain has it all.
