Location

This community is steps away from private beach access and considered one of the best locations in the Okanagan. It’s a five-minute drive to downtown Kelowna and three minutes to the Okanagan Lake Shopping Centre in West Kelowna. It’s a community of like-minded families surrounded by forested hills and beautiful Okanagan Lake. You may even spot the Ogopogo on one of your walks.

West Harbour Amenities

There’s aren’t many people that can say Okanagan Lake in part of their backyard. When you’re not spending time on the 500 feet of private beach, or swimming in the lake, you can also relax and unwind at the private pool and hot tub.

Grab your friends and family and head down to the marina. Spend the day on your boat, stand-up paddle board, kayak or canoe. Each Estate home purchase comes with a boat slip. This allows homeowners to avoid the city’s congested boat launches and get right to the fun on Okanagan Lake. Villas and Villetta owners also have the option to purchase a slip. West Harbour residents have complimentary boat parking at the Downtown Kelowna Marina.

The Harbour Club at West Harbour is a versatile and comfortable setting for your every mood. Feel invigorated after a workout in the fitness room or head over to the multi-use sports court for some fun cardio. The club house also has a communal kitchen where you can create culinary masterpieces. Make memories and enjoy them in the combined indoor/outdoor entertainment space. All this comes with a panoramic view of Okanagan Lake.

    Scott & Gina Tyerman

  • Moving from another city, it was easy to see Kelowna offers many choices when it comes to choosing a Realtor®. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, well-connected professional, look no further than Justin O’Connor. He is thorough in his appraisal work and negotiates with a quiet confidence. Justin takes the time to get to know his clients, listens to their plans and stay focussed on their goals. It was a pleasure to work with Justin and his Sotheby’s team. They always kept the process enjoyable and stayed in touch. Justin and his team know how to ease the stresses that come with making big decisions and… he has a great sense of humor!

  • I think I was still in shock last night when we went through this process. Grant and I have loved our home over the years and have always taken pride in updating it for our own enjoyment. When we decided to move to a view lot and build our dream home, we knew our home would be attractive given the location and lot size. Your advice regarding further updates and staging was obviously very advantageous. Thank you!! I would also like to let you and Justin know (as I said, I think I was in a state of shock last night) since I didn’t say so last night, we are so appreciative of everything you have done for us to make this sale happen. I totally understand all of the behind the scenes work you both did with gathering information and providing immediate response to any agent query. You both represented Grant and I very, very well! I know we can’t totally celebrate until March 23 however, the heavy lifting is done. I would not hesitate to recommend the Justin O’Connor Group to anyone buying or selling!

    Grant and Joyce

  • Working with Sotheby's was nothing less than professional. From start to finish everything went smoothly. It's good to choose a realtor that puts the client's interest first. I would recommend anyone selling their property to not hesitate going with Justin and the team!!

    Ernie and Sue

  • When selling your home, it is essential that you are using the most professional and experienced people to guide you through this often complex process. The Sotheby’s group met all of our criteria and requirements to ensure we valued our house at the right price and made sure the entire experience was handled properly from day one all the way through to the final closing. We would highly recommend their friendly expert services.

    Guy and Sonja

  • We have worked with the Justin O Connor team for both the sale of our show homes over the past 5 years as well as for our own personal home sales. The professionalism and knowledge ensured the process proceeded smoothly.

    They do their research and deliver first class service throughout the sale process which carries through to the after-sale support as well. As a custom homebuilder it is important that we have a smooth transition to our clients as we turn over our homes.

    I recommend the team for your real estate needs. You need a great team in the ever-evolving market here in the Okanagan.
