Oak Bay-Uplands Real Estate-Uplands Real Estate Review

As we move into 2010....... I thought I would review the Real Estate activities of Victoria's Mincipality of Oak Bay, in an area know by the locals as the Uplands, an area bordered by Cadboro Bay Rd to the North and West, Beach Drive to the East and Nottingham and Dorset to the South.


View Uplands District of Oak Bay in a larger map
Single Family Sales since January in South Oak Bay Total 5  with an 2010 year to date Average Selling Price of $2,028,800 with an average of 65 days on the market.

Single Family Pending Sale Total 1
with a selling price of $ 1,075,000 with an average of 20 days on the market.

It would appear Oak Bay's Uplands Single Family Real Estate sale prices are up, and the days on the market have decreased.

Currently there are 10 Single Family Uplands Homes For Sale with an Average asking price of $ 2,870,800 ranging in price from $1,348,000 for a home on Exeter Rd and up to $7,450,000 for a home on Beach Drive.

I recently drove through the Uplands on along Beach Drive and took photos of the homes to give you an idea of the Quaintness and Character of the Uplands and the Uplands Homes.




History of The Uplands of Oak Bay, is an upper-class
neighbourhood located in the north east part of the Municipality of Oak Bay, British Columbia, between the neighbourhoods of Cadboro Bay and Willows Beach. Uplands is a prominent example of a garden suburb designed in the early part of the 20th century.Oak Bay was once part of the Hudson Bay Trading Company's Pacific Northwest Holdings and 1st settled by the Songhees First Nation

Colquitz River and Trails Saanich BC.

Back in 1967 the Provincial Capital Commission of Victoria suggested a trail to follow along the Colquitz River and the concept was endorsed by Saanich Municipality Council in 1968 and land acquisition by Saanich began shortly there after.

This 24 km trail is still in the process of completion as part of the Regional Trail System extending from Beaver Lake to Portage Inlet. See the Map Below. Click on the Map to See Full size.
