In the rapidly evolving landscape of Kelowna real estate, The Nest at Findlay stands as a benchmark for "attainable luxury." Developed by the award-winning Millennial Developments and designed by Lime Architecture, this boutique collection of 20 townhomes offers the privacy and scale of a single-family home with the low-maintenance benefits of modern strata living.
Located at 1247 Findlay Road, The Nest is perfectly positioned for families and investors who want to stay connected to the heart of the Okanagan while enjoying the serenity of nearby marshlands and green spaces.
The Nest isn't just a place to live; it’s a community-centric ecosystem designed for the 2026 lifestyle.
Smart Integration: Building on Millennial Developments’ reputation for tech-forward builds, units feature smart home capabilities including remote-access thermostats and high-efficiency appliances.
Eco-Conscious Features: Private double-car garages come equipped with EV charging rough-ins, meeting the growing demand for sustainable transit.
Wellness & Community: Residents enjoy on-site raised garden plots and a dedicated, secure children’s play area, fostering a genuine neighborhood feel.
Pet-Friendly Living: With no height or size restrictions for dogs (up to 2 pets), and immediate access to Chichester Wetland Park, this is arguably the most pet-friendly development in Rutland.
Kelowna’s rental market has reached a new level of maturity in 2026. Here is why The Nest remains a high-conviction asset for our clients:
STR Compliance (The 2026 Framework): Following the City of Kelowna's latest Short-Term Rental (STR) subzone updates, The Nest offers a unique advantage. Under current regulations, owners can leverage the Principal Residence + Secondary Suite model to maximize yield while remaining fully compliant with provincial licensing.
The "Rutland Renaissance": As downtown prices push buyers eastward, Rutland has seen a 10% increase in average townhome value year-over-year. The Nest sits in the "Goldilocks Zone"—high demand for 3-bedroom rentals from UBCO faculty and tech professionals, but with a lower entry price than the Lower Mission.
Yield Drivers: With 3-bedroom townhomes currently commanding premium rents due to a city-wide shortage of family-sized inventory, investors are seeing stabilized cap rates that outperform the broader condo market.
"What is the pet policy at The Nest Kelowna?"
The Nest is a pet-friendly community allowing up to two pets per home. Unlike many Kelowna strata, there are no specific size or weight restrictions for dogs.
"Is there EV charging at The Nest townhomes?"
Yes, every townhome at The Nest includes a private double-car garage with rough-ins for Level 2 EV charging stations.
"What are the nearest schools to 1247 Findlay Road?"
The Nest is within a 10-minute walk of Pearson Elementary and Rutland Middle School, making it a top choice for local families.
The Nest boasts a "Walk Score" that rivals many downtown locations, with high-end amenities just steps away:
Recreation: A 5-minute stroll to Chichester Wetland Park and a short walk to the YMCA of Southern Interior BC.
Dining & Entertainment: 10 minutes to Landmark Cinemas Grand 10 and the McCurdy Bowling Centre.
Essentials: Rapid access to Costco, Walmart, and the Highway 97 corridor—you are never more than 10 minutes from everything you need.
