Residences

Exceptionally designed residences by the sea.

A limited collection of one, two and three-bedroom residences, enduring in detail and generous in scale, with interiors up to 2,094 square feet and extended by outdoor living. Homes considered as carefully in function as in form.

Content required

Pricing and current availability by residence. Coast publishes neither on its own site — the price map exists internally (.uploads/2026-05-08-Coast-Price_Map-V1.pdf) but has never been made public, so releasing it here is a sales decision rather than a writing task.

Tidal Collection interior

Architecture

Anchored on the Salish Sea.

At three storeys, Coast holds to the residential scale of the seaside neighbourhood around it. Designed by Ekistics, the building takes its architectural cues from the character and charm of Sidney, expressed through enduring coastal materials. A thoughtful new chapter for a long-held stretch of waterfront.

At the corner of Lochside Drive and Weiler Avenue, a garden-level space envisioned for a café or boutique retailer brings the daily rhythms of the neighbourhood to the doorstep.

Interiors

Drawn from the Coast.

Designed by Portico Design Group, the interiors at Coast are quiet, warm and exacting, with every detail selected for its quality and its resonance with the setting. Generous living spaces and overheight ceilings of 10 or 11 feet lend the ease of a single-family home, a timeless backdrop for everyday living.

Premium finishes, including wide-plank European white oak hardwood, custom cabinetry and refined tile details, ground each residence in quality and craft.

The Kitchen

A culinary program, refined.

Rich, lasting materials and a considered culinary program define the kitchen in every residence. Custom European-style cabinetry, integrated Fisher & Paykel appliances, quartz surfaces and striking Cosentino Dekton elevations come together in a balance of composition and function.

Soft, natural tones and rich texture set a quieter register in the bedrooms and bathrooms. Integrated millwork brings order to the bedroom, while stone surfaces, refined cabinetry and spa-inspired detailing give the bath the calm of a private retreat.

Two collections

Two thoughtfully appointed collections, each distinguished by setting and surroundings, together offering a range of one, two and three-bedroom residences.

Collection I

Tidal

Along the water’s edge, where the Salish Sea sets the rhythm of the day.

Collection II

Leeward

Sheltered and serene, overlooking lush landscaping and tree-lined streets.

Amenities

Considered amenities, for a life well-lived.

Amenities at Coast reflect a sense of thoughtful hospitality: a carefully considered collection of spaces designed to foster connection, enrich daily life and lend an air of resort-inspired ease to the everyday.

Waterfront Lobby & Lounge · Garden level

Garden Level

Waterfront Lobby & Lounge

A warm, beautifully appointed garden-level lobby and lounge sets the tone for the building from the moment of arrival.

The crown of the building features an outdoor kitchen and dining area, loveseats and loungers, firepits, a bocce court and rooftop gardens.

Grounds & Landscaping

Meandering Gardens

A meandering walkway winds through thoughtfully landscaped gardens — a quiet place to pause and simply be.

Content required

Interior finishes, appliance package, heating and cooling, parking, storage and warranty. Coast publishes its amenities but not its specification, and the corporate site should not be the first place a buyer learns them.

Community & Neighbourhood

At home, in Sidney by the Sea.

Coast holds a place along rare and remarkable waterfront, resting on coveted Lochside Drive. Tranquil seaside surroundings embrace a celebrated seaside community with a genuine sense of belonging.

Residents enjoy a serene, character-rich neighbourhood, steps to parks and recreation and a short walk to the local shops, cafés and culinary destinations along Beacon Avenue.

The Neighbourhood

The life of the town, close at hand.

The Waterfront

The Salish Sea, in every direction.

Expansive 180-degree outlooks reach across glistening water — waterfront living in its most essential form, with Mount Baker on the horizon and light that shifts with the seasons.

Beacon Avenue

A burgeoning main street made for lingering.

Sidney’s main street has a way of drawing people in and making them want to stay — independent shops, celebrated restaurants, coffee bars and galleries, where a morning errand becomes an afternoon well spent.

Tulista & Iroquois Parks

Recreation and open space, steps from the door.

Tree-lined paths, manicured lawns and open playing fields — tennis, pickleball, volleyball and soccer — a natural extension of the coastal lifestyle just beyond the door.

Getting Around

From the trail, to the terminal.

The Lochside Trail greenway runs past the doorstep, connecting Sidney to the Peninsula and beyond. Victoria International Airport is a five-minute drive and BC Ferries’ Swartz Bay terminal under fifteen.

Floorplans

Plans for every residence.

Coast’s plans are released through its own registration flow, which runs on a Spark CRM under an ARYZE account rather than anything GMC controls. Bringing the plans onto this page means deciding who owns that list first — see the note on the project route.
