About Ardmore
Ardmore occupies a scenic waterfront position along the eastern shoreline of North Saanich, nestled between Bazan Bay to the north and the historic Ardmore Golf Course area to the south. This quiet enclave sits off Ardmore Drive, which winds along the coast providing access to acreage properties and waterfront estates. The sub-neighbourhood extends inland from Satellite Channel toward West Saanich Road, with Ardmore Beach serving as a local landmark. Ardmore's geography is defined by its coastal orientation and gently rolling terrain, creating elevated views across the water toward the Gulf Islands. It remains one of the more secluded corners of North Saanich, bordered by rural agricultural land to the west and the tranquil waters of Saanich Inlet to the east.
Housing in Ardmore reflects its established, low-density character, with predominantly single-family homes set on generous lots that afford privacy and breathing room. Many properties occupy acreage parcels, and waterfront estates are a defining feature, taking full advantage of the eastern coastal setting. The housing stock tends toward custom-built residences from varied eras, ranging from renovated mid-century homes to newer luxury builds that cater to those seeking a rural-meets-coastal lifestyle. Current listings averaging over four bedrooms and spanning a price range from approximately $1,350,000 to nearly $5,800,000 underscore Ardmore's appeal to buyers seeking spacious family homes or executive retreats. The streetscape is tranquil and verdant, characterized by mature landscaping, treed properties, and the unhurried rhythm of country living.
