Country living east of Coldstream
Lavington is a rural community in the Coldstream Valley, about 15 kilometres east of Vernon along Highway 6 toward Lumby. It's ranch and farm country, with bigger lots, acreages and hobby farms, and prices that are often gentler than in town. Downtown Vernon is about 20 minutes away.
The name has an interesting story. It comes from Lavington Park, the English estate of Scottish distiller James Buchanan, who bought the Duteau Ranch here in 1905 and turned it into the Lavington Ranch. Buchanan Road carries his name today. Ranching and logging built the community, and a local sawmill that started in the 1960s grew into Tolko Industries.
Further east, toward Lumby, the valley opens into White Valley, with more farmland and larger rural properties.
What you can buy here
- Acreages and hobby farms, including irrigated hay land and horse properties.
- Family homes on larger lots on streets like Glendora Way, Angus Drive and School Road.
- Rural properties along Highway 6, from modest homes to estates.
With rural property, the details matter: water source, septic, zoning and whether land is in the Agricultural Land Reserve. I'll check all of it with you.

Selling a home in Lavington?
If you're thinking about selling, I can tell you what your home is worth in today's market and what buyers here are looking for. Here are the questions sellers ask me most.
What is my Lavington home worth?
I'll prepare a comparative market analysis using recent sales of similar homes in and around Lavington, adjusted for your home's size, condition, updates and views. It's free and there's no obligation. Request a free home valuation or call or text Sarah, my AI assistant, at 604-227-4810.
How long does it take to sell in Lavington?
That depends on price, condition and the season. When we meet, I'll show you how long similar homes have been taking to sell right now, and how pricing affects it.
What do buyers need to know about a rural property in Lavington?
Buyers and lenders will ask about the water source (well records or water system), the septic system, zoning, and whether the land is in the Agricultural Land Reserve. Gathering those records before you list avoids delays and renegotiation.
Should I get a septic or well inspection before listing?
Often, yes. A recent septic pump-out and inspection and a well flow and water quality test give buyers confidence and keep the deal together.
What does it cost to sell a home in BC?
Commission in BC is always negotiable. My standard fee is 6% on the first $100,000 of the sale price and 3% on the balance, plus GST, shared equally with the brokerage that brings the buyer. On an $800,000 sale, for example, that's $6,000 + $21,000 = $27,000 plus GST. That covers a lot of work behind the scenes, from me and from the technology I put in place, all aimed at getting you the best price and the easiest possible sale. Your other costs are legal or notary fees and any mortgage discharge costs or penalties. In BC the buyer, not the seller, pays property transfer tax. I'll give you a net-proceeds estimate before you list.
