Why it’s so rare

In the last 15 years, only four vacant, lake-view lots of about an acre on city sewer have sold in the Upper Mission.

Source: MLS® vacant land sales, Upper Mission, 2011–2026. Lots of 0.84 to 1.23 acres with a lake view and city sewer; excludes lakefront lots and lots sold with a house.

Mature neighbourhood, nearly an acre

In one of Kelowna’s most desirable, established neighbourhoods, where lots of this scale almost never come to market.

A lake view from the land itself

You can see Okanagan Lake from the curb today, before a single floor is built.

Ready, not raw

On city sewer, with underground utilities, cleared and graded. No teardown, no hazmat, no waiting.

So many possibilities

Subdividable into up to four building lots of nearly a quarter acre each, subject to City approval.

A summer evening at 5090 Ash Road.

You turn in under the pines and the street falls away. On the terrace, the lake catches the last of the light and the far shore turns gold. The kids are in the pool, friends are on the way up from the lake, and the guest house is ready for whoever stays the weekend.

The land falls about 11 metres across the site, so the main floor can sit high, with the lake opening between the ponderosa trees, and a walkout level below.

A true estate residence

An elevated main floor on the lake side, a walkout below, and room to place the home exactly where the light is best.

Pool and sport court

Space for both, plus outdoor living, with a working well and pump house to keep the grounds green.

Room for the people you love

The City has confirmed up to four dwelling units on this lot: a guest house, a carriage house for parents, or a suite for a grown child.

Privacy among the pines

Mature ponderosa pines, quiet streets and three frontages to choose your approach from.

The hard part is already done.

Most view lots come with a teardown, a hazardous-materials report and months of permits before anyone can draw a line. Not this one.

  • The original house is demolished and removed.
  • Hazardous materials abated, with clearance documentation.
  • Site cleared and graded.
  • Site plan and topographic survey by Bennett Land Surveying (see surveys below).
  • On city sanitary sewer: no septic field to plan around.
  • A working well and pump house for supplementary water.

Drag to compare: the original 1975-era house, and the cleared, graded site today.

Survey and future options

Build one estate today, and keep a rare option for later: Bennett Land Surveying has sketched how the parcel could be divided into four RU1 lots, subject to City approval.

Bennett Land Surveying site plan of Lot 16, Plan 25767, 5090 Ash Road: one lot of 3,776 m² (0.933 acres) with frontage on Viewcrest, Ash and Okaview roads
Today: one 0.933-acre lot Bennett Land Surveying site plan, 3,776 m². Preliminary drawing, not a legal survey. It shows a new utility right-of-way (Plan EPP156114) by the kiosk on Viewcrest Road, but not the older northeast-corner right-of-way (K4827), which remains registered but is currently in final stages of official discharge.
Proposed subdivision sketch dividing the parcel into four lots: A 813.5 m², B 1,314.6 m², C 885.3 m² and D 762.0 m²
Later, if you choose: four lots Lots of 762 to 1,315 m². Proposed only and subject to City approval. Preliminary sketch, not a legal survey; like the site plan, it does not show right-of-way K4827, which remains on title while its discharge is in progress.
