Highlands Real Estate
The Highlands, situated northwest of Victoria, is a ruggedly rural community characterised by protected parklands. Approximately one-third of the Highlands are committed to preserved green space, cherished by residents and visitors. In addition to the Cal Revelle Nature Sanctuary, the Highlands boast five major parks, with detailed hiking and trail maps.
While committed to maintaining the natural beauty of the area, the Highlands is also amenable to cultivating that beauty and enhancing value through development. In the spirit of the Highlands Official Community Plan, the Highlands is home to the internationally famous Bear Mountain Golf & Country Club. With an eighteen-hole golf course designed by Jack and Steve Nicklaus and luxurious resort facilities, Bear Mountain is garnering attention as a destination. With ongoing expansion and the opening of a second golf course in 2008, Bear Mountain is raising the bar. Bear Mountain also offers condominium living, building lots, individual residences, and exciting investment potential in the form of partial or full ownership of vacation properties.
The Juan de Fuca Recreation Centre provides a range of drop-in and registration-required activities and courses, and the Centre also houses a branch of the Greater Victoria Public Library. Twenty-two leisure and recreational organisations including equestrian pursuits, lawn bowling, hockey, and skateboarding operate out of the Juan de Fuca Recreation Centre, and ensure that a diversity of interests is represented.
The pride of the Highlands is the rural lifestyle set amongst limited development. However, the Highlands remain commercially independent, and local businesses include pubs, shops, banks, and healthcare services, including the Victoria General Hospital, only minutes away.
