Rutland North Homes
Rutland North condominiums and townhomes are the most affordable housing in the neighbourhood. One-bedroom multi-family units start in the $200,000 range. Naturally, the price tag grows with the size of the home, and 4-bedroom townhomes sell for around $495,000.
Single-family, detached homes are priced from $450,000 to $700,000 making these homes some of the best-priced homes in the Okanagan region. This is one of Kelowna’s older communities, and the lowest-priced homes will probably need a little TLC. New construction homes, on popular cul-de-sac streets, will cost closer to the higher $700,000 price point.
One unique feature of these homes is that many of them cater to those college students by including rental suites which defray the mortgage costs…a great point to keep in mind if you’re considering one of those older fixer-uppers!
