Your New Home in Kelowna: What Makes Living in Kelowna Great

KELOWNA, British Columbia, Sept. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Kelowna is the place to be if you not only want year-round access to one of the country's most spectacular natural areas, but also vibrant city life and quintessential local hotspots.

And what better way to get your slice of Okanagan paradise than living in a luxury paired home? Kestrel Ridge, developed by Rykon Group, is a new development in Kelowna that offers easy access to plenty of amenities. Within only a few minutes' drive, you'll find Myra-Bellevue, one of British Columbia's best provincial parks, as well as one of Okanagan's highest rated championship-length golf courses, Harvest Golf Club.

"There's no shortage of activities to do and sights to see in Kelowna," said Landon Block, Project Manager with Rykon Construction Management. "Kelowna is truly one of the best places to live in Canada. You can ski in the morning, and golf in the afternoon".

Once residents are finished with hiking, boating, swimming, and the plethora of other outdoor activities, they can take in craft beers, famous wineries, and local restaurants.

"Kestrel Ridge is away from busy city life, and is a great place to relax. But when you want to enjoy local food in downtown Kelowna, it's less than a 10-minute drive away," said Block.

There's an abundance of locally-owned restaurants to fit a discerning palette. Raudz Regional Table offers a locally-focused dinner menu, with dishes such as gin cured salmon and venison carpaccio. If you're looking for shareable plates and tapas, Chef James serves up unique creations daily at Salt & Brick. If you're looking for something a bit more exotic, Zabb Thai Restaurant is known locally for its flavourful pad thai, green curry, and drunken noodle dishes.

Plus, if you don't feel like driving into downtown Kelowna, Kettle Valley is just down the road from Kestrel Ridge and has some wonderful amenities. There's a grocery store, liquor store, and a great local pizza place and coffee shop.

When you're done exploring the region's better-known sites, it's time to discover the hidden gems just outside the door of your Kelowna home.

"While Hot Sands and Boyce-Gyro beaches are nice, they can get quite busy, especially during the tourist season. There are plenty of beaches that are more secluded and lesser known. For example, Bertram Creek Provincial Park is just 8km south of Kestrel Ridge and it has great sandy beaches and plenty of walking trails," Block said.

Additionally, Maude Roxby Bird Sanctuary is nearby, so bird lovers and nature nuts take note. There is also Kasugai Japanese Garden if you're craving another serene environment, and is within walking distance to Water St. in downtown Kelowna.

Your next home in Kelowna can be within a 10km radius of all of the great wineries, golf clubs, beaches, restaurants and more, at Kestrel Ridge.

With Phase 2 of construction well underway, homes will be available as early as September 2019 to enjoy the local sights, sounds, and tastes. You can view the two impressive show homes at 5422 Kestrel Lane daily from 12pm - 4pm. Just take a right-hand turn when entering the community.
