Located south of Spruce Drive on the west side of Vedder Road, and with streets branching from the Wiltshire corridor, this residential area is home to many empty nesters and active retirees.
Attracting this population is the predominance of larger detached rancher style homes ideal for those wanting one-level living combined with yards large enough for gardening and outdoor enjoyment. A quiet neighbourhood of quality homes it is also attractive to families wanting the convenience of easy access to schools and the Sardis shopping areas.
Some larger executive homes on over-sized lots are located along Worthington and Newby Dr. as well as a mix of older and newer custom executive homes on Pioneer, Gleneden and Eden Drives.
This area is also home to Edenbank, Chilliwack’s most unique and beautiful seniors community with its expansive gardens, walking paths, executive clubhouse and varied mix of apartments, townhouses and detached homes within the community.

- Quiet residential living
- Established neighbourhood
- Easy Commuter access
This was one of the original residential developments in the Sardis area with the first homes, mostly split entry style, being built in the eary 70′s in two pockets around Sardis Senior and Watson Elementary. This large residential area continued to develop into the mid to late 1980′s with a variety of home styles including some lovely classic split level and west coast contemporary homes. Encompassing the area west of the Vedder Road corridor, from Stevenson Road on the north to Watson Rd on the south, this established neighbourhood is an excellent choice for families seeking quiet residential living, close proximity to schools and good-sized family friendly homes and lots. Many of the houses have been updated over the years but there has been very little ‘infill” or redevelopment making this a very attractive and reasonably affordable part of the community. Evans Rd forms the western boundary and with the completion in 2009 of the new Evans rd access and fly-over, residents here will enjoy quick access to the freeway and a direct route to the north side of town making it perfect for families needing to commute or wanting to enjoy the amanities such as the Leisure Centre and Propsera Centre on the north side.
