Chilliwack 55+ and 45+ age-restricted townhomes Market Guide
This page shows every active MLS® listing for 55+ and 45+ age-restricted townhomes in Chilliwack, BC. Here is how the local sub-areas compare.
Sardis East Vedder: established family streets east of Vedder Road close to shops, parks and Sardis Secondary.
Sardis West Vedder: quiet cul-de-sacs and gated adult complexes west of Vedder Road near the Vedder River trails.
Vedder Crossing: the commercial heart of the south side, with condos and townhomes close to the Vedder River.
Chilliwack Proper East: central Chilliwack neighbourhoods with older detached homes, duplexes and infill townhomes.
Sardis South: newer subdivisions and townhome sites toward the Vedder River and Cultus Lake Road.
Garrison Crossing: the former CFB Chilliwack base, now a walkable village of heritage-style homes, townhomes and condos.
Zoning, Strata & ALR Notes
Under the BC Strata Property Act, 55+ and 45+ age-restricted townhomes are strata-titled. Before removing subjects, ask for Form B, the strata minutes from the last two years, the depreciation report and the bylaws covering rentals, pets and age restrictions. In 55+ and 45+ complexes the age bylaws apply to at least one occupant, and they are enforced.
Floodplain Notes
Floodplain: lower Sardis, Yarrow, Rosedale, Greendale and Fairfield Island all have parts in the Fraser and Vedder River floodplain, which the City's dike network protects. Get the property's flood construction level, find out the lender and insurer requirements, and look on title for a registered geotechnical or floodplain covenant.
SD33 Schools & Transit
Schools and transit: School District 33 (SD33) serves Chilliwack, with Sardis Secondary, G.W. Graham Middle-Secondary and Chilliwack Secondary, plus elementary catchments such as Unsworth, Watson and Vedder. Check the catchment with SD33 before you buy. Local BC Transit routes in Chilliwack run on Vedder Road, Luckakuck Way and Young Road, while Route 66, the Fraser Valley Express, connects Chilliwack with Abbotsford and with Carvolth Exchange in Langley.

Chilliwack 55+ Townhomes for Sale: 7 FAQs
Where are 55+ and 45+ age-restricted townhomes for sale in Chilliwack usually located?
Most 55+ and 45+ age-restricted townhomes in Chilliwack come up in Sardis East Vedder, Sardis West Vedder, Vedder Crossing, Chilliwack Proper East, Sardis South and Garrison Crossing. Each area has its own mix of age, lot size and price, so I recommend shortlisting two or three neighbourhoods before you book showings.
How often do these Chilliwack 55+ townhome listings update?
The MLS® feed from the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board refreshes this page several times a day, which means new listings, price changes and sold statuses show up fast.
What should I check on zoning, strata or ALR before buying a Chilliwack 55+ townhome?
Age-restricted 55+ and 45+ townhomes are strata-titled, which falls under the BC Strata Property Act. Before you remove subjects, get Form B, the depreciation report, the bylaws on rentals, pets and age restrictions, and strata minutes going back two years. Complexes that are 55+ and 45+ enforce their age bylaws, and those bylaws cover at least one occupant.
Are any Chilliwack 55+ and 45+ age-restricted townhomes in the floodplain?
Flood risk: some of Yarrow, Greendale, Fairfield Island, Rosedale and lower Sardis is in the Fraser and Vedder River floodplain, with the City's dike network protecting it. Ask what the property's flood construction level is, what lender and insurer requirements apply, and whether title carries a geotechnical or floodplain covenant.
Which schools serve Chilliwack 55+ and 45+ age-restricted townhomes?
School District 33 (SD33) covers Chilliwack. Sardis and the south side go on to Sardis Secondary and G.W. Graham, and the north side goes to Chilliwack Secondary. Because catchments change, check with SD33 about a specific address.
Is public transit available near Chilliwack 55+ and 45+ age-restricted townhomes?
Yes. Local Chilliwack routes from BC Transit use Young Road, Luckakuck Way and Vedder Road, and the Fraser Valley Express links up with Abbotsford and Langley. Bus service is thin or absent in rural areas like Ryder Lake, Greendale and Columbia Valley.

Common questions
Can my 52-year-old spouse live with me in a 55+ townhome?
Possibly, under the provincial exemptions. Since May 1, 2023, British Columbia law exempts younger spouses or partners, and children including adult children, of a qualifying resident from a 55+ age-restriction bylaw. The strata's registered bylaw is still the document to read before offering, because it states how this complex applies the rule.
Is Cottage Grove a townhome, a house or a condo?
It is a bare-land strata of detached ranchers at 8500 Young Road, which is why it appears on ground-oriented searches. You own a strata lot and a one-level detached home; the strata carries the common property and the gate. That differs from a freehold Young Road house and from an apartment condo, and the strata documents settle fees and responsibilities.
Are the Chartwell Birchwood townhouses for sale?
No. Chartwell presents its townhouses at 45650 Patten Avenue as seniors' townhouses inside a retirement residence, with weekly housekeeping and emergency response included, beside the main residence near Chilliwack General Hospital. They are rented as retirement living. A buyer who wants to own should look at strata product such as Cottage Grove, and treat Birchwood as the rental alternative in the same decision.
Which hospital serves these homes?
Chilliwack General Hospital, 45600 Menholm Road, is the city's Fraser Health community hospital, providing primary, core secondary and some specialty services. The Patten Avenue seniors cluster sits in its precinct; Cottage Grove and Elim Village are south of Highway 1 in Sardis, so their hospital trip crosses the highway interchange.
Chilliwack 55+ Townhomes: streets and boundaries
- Chilliwack's ground-oriented 55+ stock is scattered: the named homes below sit on Young Road south of Highway 1, Patten Avenue in Chilliwack Proper, and Chehalis Drive in Sardis.
Chilliwack 55+ Townhomes: the housing stock
- Cottage Grove, 8500 Young Road, is the clearest buyable ground-oriented 55+ product: a gated bare-land strata of detached one-level ranchers, each on its own strata lot. Confirm the registered age bylaw on the Form B before relying on it.
- Chartwell Birchwood, 45650 Patten Avenue, offers seniors' townhouses beside its retirement residence — two bedrooms, full kitchen, in-suite laundry, balcony and patio, in four floor plans. It is rental retirement living, not a strata you can buy.
- Elim Village, 45412 Chehalis Drive in Garrison Crossing, Sardis, is a seniors village including The Redwood, a four-storey independent-living building of 64 suites. Elim's own pages describe rental and life-lease style housing, not freehold townhome strata.
Chilliwack 55+ Townhomes: rules that affect buyers
- A 55+ bylaw is now the only age restriction a British Columbia strata may have: effective November 24, 2022, a strata may only restrict age at not less than 55 years, with exemptions for some caregivers and for residents who already lived in the lot.
- From May 1, 2023, further exemptions cover children, including adult children, and younger spouses or partners of an exempt resident — the complex's registered bylaw still states how the rule is applied.
- Rental-restriction bylaws are no longer enforceable in British Columbia stratas, but a valid 55+ bylaw still controls who may live in the unit, including a tenant.
Chilliwack 55+ Townhomes: local details a buyer would not know
- Fraser Health's Chilliwack Urgent and Primary Care Centre is at #104 – 7955 Evans Road, co-located with the rural primary care centre — same-day care for non-life-threatening concerns, on the city's west side.
- Curbside collection changed May 1, 2026: compostables weekly, garbage and recycling alternating bi-weekly, glass and flexible plastics monthly, Tuesday to Friday, carts out by 7:00 a.m. A strata may handle this internally — confirm before assuming.
- Chartwell Birchwood states it sits next to Townsend Park, near the Landing Leisure Centre and Chilliwack General Hospital — the reason so much seniors housing clusters on Patten and Hodgins avenues.
Chilliwack 55+ Townhomes: costs and taxes
- City utility and solid-waste charges are billed quarterly, under the bylaws named on the City's rates page; a strata may carry some through strata fees.
Chilliwack 55+ Townhomes: getting around
- BC Transit, not TransLink, runs Chilliwack transit. Route 51 Vedder links Downtown with the University of the Fraser Valley (UFV) Chilliwack campus via Vedder Road, the Sardis corridor nearest Elim Village.
- Route 52 Evans runs Cottonwood Mall to Downtown via Evans Road, the corridor for the urgent and primary care centre in.
Chilliwack 55+ Townhomes: risks and due diligence
- Floodplain Regulation Bylaw 2018, No. 4519 sets Flood Construction Levels (FCLs) in Chilliwack; the City guide states new construction generally needs the lowest habitable floor at FCL plus 0.6 metres freeboard. Check the parcel, not the neighbourhood.
- The same bylaw sets a 75-metre building setback from the natural boundary of the Vedder River, relevant to south-side lots.
- The Sardis-Vedder Aquifer is Development Permit Area 1 in the 2050 Official Community Plan (OCP), Bylaw 2025, No. 5500, Schedule D-1, so construction or a new well in the mapped area can require a development permit.
