Life in the Foothills
The Foothills is a newer family neighbourhood in northeast Vernon, off Silver Star Road on the way up to SilverStar Mountain Resort. You'll notice the street names right away: Blackcomb, Whistler, Apex, Nakiska, Sun Peaks, Red Mountain and Copper Mountain. It's a fitting theme when the ski hill is only about 20 minutes up the road.
Homes here are mostly newer single-family houses, many with walkout basements, suites and valley views. Silver Star Foothills Community Park on Whistler Place has tennis and basketball courts and a playground, and the BX Creek trails and the Grey Canal Trail are close by. Downtown Vernon is about 10 minutes away.
The area is still growing. The City has planned for about 500 more homes by 2035, with road upgrades on Silver Star Road to match, so expect some new construction alongside resales.
