The first homes at The Beachlands oceanfront community in Colwood: two six-storey, air-conditioned condo buildings and 16 townhomes by Seacliff Properties and Reliance Properties, scheduled for completion in 2027.
Origin is the opening neighbourhood of The Beachlands, a 134-acre master-planned community on a former gravel pit in Colwood with 1.4 km of shoreline. It combines two six-storey condominium buildings with 16 three-bedroom townhomes in the area called The Bluffs. On MLS, the condos are listed at 3550 Seabluff Crescent, with townhomes at addresses such as 3548 Seabluff Crescent and 3501 Coastal Drive, all filed under the Royal Bay sub-area.
Vancouver-based Seacliff Properties and Reliance Properties are developing Origin as a joint venture. Seacliff bought the land in 2017 and Reliance joined in 2022, and the community, first known as Royal Beach, took the name The Beachlands in 2023. The wider plan allows up to 2,850 homes over about 15 years, with commercial space, a plaza and about 47 acres of parkland.
Origin is under construction. Coverage in 2025 put the opening in the second quarter of 2027, and June 2026 reports still gave 2027. Sales for the first condo building began in summer 2025, and it was reported 60 per cent sold by June 2026. Published home counts range from 180 to 186 including the townhomes, so confirm the total in the disclosure statement.
The map shows every unit in the building currently listed on MLS®, with full details in the listings below.
Two air-conditioned condo buildings hold one- to three-bedroom homes, joined by a small group of 16 three-bedroom townhomes.
The developer cites about 20,000 sq ft of private amenity space, including a rooftop lounge, cedar sauna and fitness studio.
Walking paths run from The Bluffs down to the shoreline, and new parkland is being handed to Colwood in phases.
Reports from 2025 and 2026 put completion in 2027, and MLS lists these presale homes with a year built of 2027.
The developer's website shows 18 floor plans. A September 2025 trade report said just under half of the condos were one-bedrooms, with one-bedrooms from just over 600 sq ft, two-bedrooms of about 800 sq ft, three-bedroom condos of 900 to 1,000 sq ft and townhomes of about 1,200 to 1,300 sq ft. The townhomes are pitched as house-sized space with the lock-and-leave ease of a condo.
Interiors follow a coastal modern look with natural materials and large windows. The developer's feature list includes:
Shared space is a big part of the pitch. The developer's amenities page cites 20,000 sq ft of private amenity space, while other pages on its site say more than 21,000 sq ft of indoor and outdoor space. Planned spaces include:
The developer does not say which building holds each space, and one report described the roof deck as shared by condo residents, so townhome buyers should ask what they can use.
The Beachlands is a separate master plan from Royal Bay, the neighbouring community across Metchosin Road, though MLS groups Origin's homes with Royal Bay. The first phase of a planned 47-acre waterfront park network opened on June 13, 2026, and work on another 12 acres, including the Bluff Lookout and an amphitheatre, was set to begin that summer. A commercial plaza and a future hotel are part of later phases.
For daily needs, the developer lists Quality Foods at Royal Bay and The Commons retail centre, and it names Albert Head Lagoon Regional Park and Esquimalt Lagoon among nearby outdoor spots. Coverage in 2025 also noted that the Royal BC Museum was opening a new centre across the street. Colwood is served by the Sooke School District (SD 62), and Royal Bay Secondary is one of its schools; confirm catchments with the district.

Origin homes are being sold new by the developers, so BC's Real Estate Development Marketing Act applies. Before you sign, the developer must hand you its disclosure statement, which sets out the project, the budget for the strata and the proposed bylaws. You then have seven days to rescind by written notice, starting from whichever is later: the date of the agreement or the date the developer receives your signed receipt for the statement.
A few more points apply to any presale in BC:
As of late October 2026 there were six active MLS listings at Origin. At 3550 Seabluff Crescent, a one-bedroom of 611 sq ft was asking $518,900 and three two-bedrooms of about 761 to 827 sq ft were asking $599,900 to $814,900. Two three-bedroom townhomes of about 1,328 to 1,350 sq ft, at 3548 Seabluff Crescent and 3501 Coastal Drive, were asking $999,900 and $899,900. Asking prices change daily, so treat these as a snapshot.

Units bought directly from a developer can carry GST and come with the BC 2-5-10 new home warranty, while resales in a newer building transfer the remaining warranty. Before you write an offer, read the strata documents, the depreciation report and the current budget. Our presale and new condo guide covers disclosure statements, assignments and early strata fees.
