Kettle Valley’s First $1M Lot Is Sold!

Kettle Valley was founded more than 18 years ago in 1996 and was the first neo-traditional community in the Okanagan Valley. At that time, the population in Kelowna was around 90,000 people. Today, the city has grown to an estimated 122,000 and Kettle Valley has grown right along with it.

The Beginning

When Kettle Valley was founded, lots started at $56,900 and homes could be purchased for as low as $191,300.

In October 2003, just seven years after our community began, Kettle Valley sold its first million dollar home. Designed and built by Kettle Valley’s in-house building company, Kentland Homes, the home was dubbed ‘The Winchester’.
