Ellison Houses For Sale
Ellison in Kelowna’s northeast gives families a quiet country feel surrounded by orchards and open farmland for those wanting to experience an suburban environment while still staying nearby city activities. Those seeking land will find many homes with large ranch and orchard fields, while those wanting a closer neighbourhood can find affordable homes built in the 1970s and ‘80s inside the Scotty Creek neighbourhood with fenced backyards for kids and animals and the region’s elementary school in the heart of the neighbourhood. Thanks to the new intersection on Sexsmith Road, arriving at Reid’s Corner is only a few turns away that can further lead to the highway for easy city access, or to Rutland for other shopping and reactional needs. The young and friendly families in the relaxing neighbourhood will make Ellison the perfect location for those wanting to relax and enjoy the scenic atmosphere without the hustle and bustle of the city centres.
Ellison is surrounded by four of Kelowna’s golf courses with a nearby winery and petting zoo for local activities. Near the airport there are six nearby baseball diamonds and a skating rink beside Ellison Elementary that seconds as a basketball court during the summer season. The university across the highway makes Ellison one of the best locations for those wishing to pursue their postsecondary education while living off campus.
