WEST KELOWNA NEIGHBOURHOOD GUIDE

WESTBANK CENTRE Real Estate & Homes for Sale

West Kelowna’s downtown, with the broadest mix of homes on the Westside.

WESTBANK CENTRE, WEST KELOWNA

THE WESTSIDE’S CIVIC AND COMMERCIAL CORE

Westbank Centre is West Kelowna’s commercial and civic core, with City Hall and the Johnson Bentley Memorial Aquatic Centre on Old Okanagan Highway and shops, services and transit close at hand.

The board’s Westbank Centre area reaches well beyond the town centre, taking in condos and townhomes, manufactured home communities, established detached streets, and high-end homes on Whitworth Road near the Gellatly Nut Farm. Part of the area is Westbank First Nation reserve land, where homes are generally sold as registered leaseholds rather than fee simple, so tenure is the first thing to confirm on any listing. The City adopted an updated Westbank Urban Centre Plan in October 2026 to guide growth toward a more walkable, connected downtown.

Sold figures are totals and medians of residential sales that closed in the last 90 days; medians are shown only with 5 or more sales. Residential only (houses, apartments, townhouses). Months of inventory requires at least 6 closed sales in the window to be meaningful and reads N/A below that.

SCOTT’S MARKET PERSPECTIVE

“IN WESTBANK CENTRE, READ THE TENURE BEFORE YOU READ THE PRICE.”

WESTBANK CENTRE is currently firmly favouring buyers. With 254 active properties against 57 closed sales in the past 90 days, selection is substantial and pricing discipline matters. Recent sales have taken a median of 69 days and closed at 96.8% of asking, with buyers negotiating meaningfully below asking. 49 new listings entered the market in the past 30 days. 36 current listings have had a price cut in the past 30 days, 14% of active inventory.

Tenure is the other variable. A leasehold home on Westbank First Nation land and a fee simple home a few streets away are different assets, and the remaining lease term, any lease payments and the financing available all bear on value. For buyers and sellers alike, the right comparison is the same type of property on the same tenure, and that is where pricing should start.
