West Park One Condos at Thetis Lake, View Royal

West Park One: Design, Energy and Construction

The exterior pairs generous glazing with cement-composite panels and lap siding over a rainscreen wall system, and the developer describes the structure as designed to be earthquake-prepared. On energy, the developer's residences page says the project is "meeting or exceeding Step 3 Energy Code standards in all aspects of construction." Windows and doors are thermally isolated, and each home has an energy recovery ventilator with a programmable control.

For comfort, each living room has an inverter air-conditioning unit, which the feature sheet describes as providing limited heating and cooling, and the sheet also lists central gas hot water heating. The developer highlights the building's sound insulation as well. Homewood's earlier work includes The Residences on Sooke Harbour, according to the project team page.

West Park One Floor Plans and Finishes

The developer's floor plan page shows eight layouts:

• One-bedroom (Plan C): about 600 sq ft, the most common home in the building
• One-bedroom plus den (Plan C1): about 765 sq ft, a single home
• Two-bedroom (Plans A, B and D): about 830 to 975 sq ft, all with two bathrooms
• Two-bedroom plus den (Plans E, E1 and F): about 905 to 1,125 sq ft

Inside, the developer lists 9-ft ceilings, two colour palettes, wood veneer cabinets from Benson Cabinetry and Millwork, quartz counters, Samsung stainless appliances, wide-plank matte laminate floors, ceramic tile in the bathrooms, walk-in showers with rain heads, soaker tubs and a stacked washer and dryer. Ground-floor homes get large patios, and upper homes get balconies with outdoor lighting.

Parking, Bikes and Storage

Parking is in an underground parkade with electronic and intercom entry. The developer's 2023 feature sheet says every stall was roughed in for electric vehicle plug-ins, so ask whether a charger has since been installed at the stall that comes with a unit. Cyclists get a dedicated bike room with individual secure storage, plus covered short-term bike parking outside.

Each suite has one storage locker, and some suites also have access to racks for kayaks and stand-up paddleboards, a handy extra with Thetis Lake so close. Ask which homes have rack access before you write an offer.

Thetis Lake Regional Park is the building's biggest neighbour.

Buying at West Park One: GST, Warranty and Strata Documents

The developer's website still reads "Now Selling" and advertises a limited-time discount, with prices quoted before GST, so you could be buying new from the developer or buying a resale from an early owner. GST may apply to a home bought new from the developer; first-time buyers should check current federal and BC rebates with an advisor.

The feature sheet lists a 2-5-10 warranty from Travelers Insurance Company of Canada, covering materials and labour for two years, the building envelope for five and the structure for ten, along with a Homewood customer care warranty. Resale buyers take over the remaining term, so ask for the certificate.

In a strata this new, read the disclosure statement and amendments, the bylaws, budget, minutes and a Form B, and ask when the first depreciation report is due. We have not reviewed this strata's rental or pet bylaws, so confirm both before you buy. See all View Royal condos for sale to compare.
