After years of helping clients across Greater Victoria, we’ve learned an important truth. Saanich is one of the most consistently desirable places to live. It offers a balance of nature, schools, amenities, and stable neighbourhoods, all within minutes of the city.
Everyday Living Made Easy
Saanich offers something for everyone.
You can live close to beaches, walking trails, or shops without sacrificing one for the other. The municipality stretches from coastal pockets to quiet residential areas and even rural acreages. This variety gives buyers real choice instead of compromise.
Nature at Your Doorstep
Locals value how close they are to parks and green space.
Mount Douglas (Pkols), Swan Lake, Elk and Beaver Lake, and the coastline around Cadboro Bay are all part of daily life. A morning walk, an after-work trail run, or a family beach outing becomes simple rather than a weekend trip.
Neighbourhoods Buyers Love
- Gordon Head: Spacious lots, quiet streets, and close proximity to UVic.
- Broadmead: Mature landscaping, preserved nature, and exceptional privacy.
- Cadboro Bay: Village atmosphere, beach access, and a strong sense of community.
- Royal Oak: Central location, convenient shopping, and reliable transit.
- Rural Saanich: Acreages, gardens, and hobby farms while still near amenities.
Why Sellers Perform Well Here
Saanich homes tend to hold value. The community attracts long-term buyers who prioritize lifestyle and stability.
Sellers do best when they highlight walkability, green space, and flexible floorplans such as suites or home offices. Timeless upgrades generally outperform trendy remodels.
Our Honest Take
Clients often explore Oak Bay, Sidney, Langford, and View Royal, but many return to Saanich. It isn’t flashy. It is livable, reliable, and rooted in lifestyle. For buyers seeking nature, convenience, and long-term comfort, Saanich delivers.

“My wife and I sold our condo in View Royal and bought a place in Esquimalt with the help of The Faber Group. Scott helped us to find and buy the perfect home for our growing family in a very competitive market. He got to know our wants and needs and worked within our schedule with a small baby. Once we found the perfect place Scott helped us to get it for under the asking price and sold our condo in one day on the market with multiple offers over asking! We are so grateful that Scott helped us through this process, answering our many questions and alleviating our concerns. Thank you for helping us sell our first home and buy a beautiful house for our family.”
