Revelstoke Mountain Resort is kicking off its first self-developed resort residential project with plans for a range of housing styles from condos to duplexes, townhomes to estate lots.

Located between Kamloops, B.C. and Banff, Alta. in the mountainous eastern part of British Columbia, Revelstoke is a destination that has long held an international reputation as a skiing and recreational playground. Opened in 2007, it is owned by Vancouver-based Northland Properties and provides access to 500,000 acres of terrain.

Revelstoke’s management announced its first vertically developed housing on resort lands in December 2025: Mountain Road Estates and Benchlands Residences.

Mountain Road will consist of 10 duplex villas and four estate lots. Benchlands is planned to include 16 townhomes, 43 condo units and 13 estate lots. Prices across both projects will start from $549,000 to approximately $4 million.

The two projects kick off the first phase of a decades-long master plan to bring hundreds of housing units and amenities to the resort that is approaching 600,000 visitations per year, Dominik Hubczek, Revelstoke’s senior real estate specialist, said in an interview with RENX Homes.

“Our vision is to deliver the best all-season mountain resort in North America,” he said.

About Mountain Road, Benchlands

Mountain Road will be a slope-side project just above the resort village and a stone’s throw from the gondola base, Hubczek said, offering a panoramic view of the Monashee Mountains.

The duplex villas planned for Mountain Road are described as “a chalet that’s divided into two,” with each half being an approximately 3,500-square-foot, five-bedroom unit with a walkout basement. Prices will start from $4 million.

The estate lots will be approximately 0.2 acres, which Hubczek expects can site a custom home between 3,000 to 3,500 square feet on one level. Prices will start from $1.5 million.

In contrast to Mountain Road, Benchlands will be set in a “serene forest setting,” Hubczek said. The community will be a two-minute walk from the resort village. It will be anchored by the Cabot Revelstoke golf course which is scheduled to open in 2027.

The townhomes at Benchlands are designed as three- to five-bedroom units between 2,100 to 2,600 square feet.

The condos will range from one- to three-bedroom offerings. The one-bedroom units will go up to 700 square feet; two-bedroom units up to 1,100 square feet; three-bedroom units up to 1,400 square feet.

The Benchlands estate lots will range from half an acre to one acre, Hubczek said. Revelstoke will provide design guidelines to future buyers so the homes are “complementary to the neighbourhood and to each other and respect the forest setting.”

The townhomes at Benchlands will start from $1.6 million; condos from $549,000; the estate lots from $900,000.

Timing, sales for the developments

Revelstoke anticipates the first townhomes at Benchlands will be ready for move-in by December 2026. The timing of the condos will depend on presales, Hubczek said. If it goes according to plan, he expects construction can start this spring and the units be ready for delivery in December 2027.

Presales of the townhomes at Benchlands have started, with three of the initial eight homes already snapped up.

The Mountain Road villa duplexes are expected to be ready for move-in by Q1 2027. Five of the 10 units have already been sold, a feat that was achieved with virtually no marketing, Hubczek said. He described the presales as “fantastic.”

“Our expectations were that if we pre-sell two in each project it was a go,” Hubczek said about the sales targets — which have now been exceeded.

Revelstoke has attracted a wide spectrum of buyers for the two projects, gaining the interest of buyers from across Canada, the U.S., South America and Europe.

Most buyers are searching for a lifestyle residence, Hubczek said. For example, they plan to stay in their Revelstoke home for one to two months, then rent it through the resort for the rest of the year. With the more affordable condo offerings in Benchlands, Revelstoke has lured a wider range of potential buyers, including aspiring first-time homeowners from the area, Hubczek noted.

Sustainable growth the goal of future phases

The local resort housing market is in an “interesting” state, he said. The value of such properties has more than doubled over the past 10 years, a movement Hubczek expects will continue into 2026. He attributed the gains to high interest in Revelstoke as a resort destination.

Also, there has been a rise in aspiration to own a property in a small town, a “significant tailwind with that piece of people wanting to escape their busy lives in a very congested urban setting and spend it in a quaint, safe little mountain town.”

There remains plenty of capacity for future residential developments at Revelstoke, Hubczek said. The resort, which has transitioned into real estate development to help with its expansion plans, has a master agreement allowing it to acquire land from the British Columbia government in exchange for growth. It is a plan that could take over 30 years to see through, Hubczek said.

A three-phase strategy, each stage is likely to release hundreds of residential units. Revelstoke is not aiming to saturate the market with products, Hubczek said, instead opting for small releases so the town of approximately 10,000 residents is not overwhelmed.

“We want to grow this sustainably.”
