The city of Penticton in the South Okanagan is easily the pick of the crop when it comes to neighbourhoods offering lifestyle, housing & climate. Penticton means ‘A Place to Stay Forever’ and is lovingly located between Okanagan and Skaha lakes. Be it sandy beaches, fruit orchards or a memorable Pinot Noir, Penticton offers so much more in super natural British Columbia – Affordable homes, February start to golf season, award-winning wineries by the dozens and excellent schools & health care for local residents. Discover desirable war time bungalows to expansive beach front estates to first-time-buyer condominiums, the ten neighbourhoods of Penticton are poised-to-please:
School District #67 in Penticton (Okanagan Skaha) has 11 elementary schools, 3 middle schools and 3 secondary schools for families. Highlights include Skaha Lake Middle School with a Hockey Academy, a local Indigenous Education Program and International Student Program (IS) making it easy for students visiting Penticton to transition to top Canadian and American colleges and universities. Penticton schools are recognized for well-equipped classrooms, labs, libraries, art studios, trade shops, culinary facilities & gyms, all with wireless access.
The main neighbourhoods of Penticton are Main Street North and South Main, situated between Okanagan and Skaha lakes. North west of downtown is Husula/West Bench/Sage Mesa with expansive city views, country living & orchards. The Columbia/Duncan and Valleyview/Wiltse neighbourhoods are just minutes from the centre of Penticton. K -Streets is located just outside Penticton’s downtown with many streets beginning with the letter “K”, buyers will find beautiful tree-lines streets and numerous renovated post-war homes. The desirable Uplands/Redlands neighbourhoods are north east of town with Okanagan waterfront views. Carmi is in the far east and features valley views, mountains and more. Apex Mountain is Penticton’s famous mountain resort community about a half-hour west of the city with recreation galore and chalet style living with ski in/ski out access. The hub of the South Okanagan, Penticton is centrally located along Highway 97 with easy vehicle access to Kelowna, Oliver and Osoyoos. The industrial area of Penticton has few homes to choose, but entrepreneurs will find a good selection of commercial storefronts and industrial properties.
Something for everyone is perhaps an overused selling proposition, but with Penticton and its ten neighbourhoods, it’s really true. First-time-buyers, growing families or those looking to retire to a deluxe waterfront home, Penticton delivers. Condos, war time ranchers or custom builds with all the modern conveniences add to Penticton’s appeal. Sendereo Heights in the Carmi neighbourhood is a fine example of new development with wide appeal. Substantial price increases in Canada’s larger urban centres place Penticton at the top of the list for value when relocating or looking for a new place to call home.
