Forested acreages and mountain retreats above Greater Victoria
The Highlands is Greater Victoria's most rural municipality — large forested lots, dramatic terrain, and protected wilderness, all within 20 minutes of downtown Victoria. Highlands real estate is exclusively single-family — typically 2+ acre properties with significant tree cover, mountain views, and access to Mount Work Regional Park, Thetis Lake, and Lone Tree Hill. There are no commercial centres, condos, or townhomes; the entire municipality is residential and rural by design. Buyers here trade walkability and amenities for privacy, nature, and space. The median home in the Highlands sells for $1.32M, with 14 properties currently for sale and homes typically taking 26 days to sell. Year-over-year prices are +15.1%.
