Imagine living in a place that offers the ideal mix of modernity and comfort — somewhere you can get a fresh start, set down some roots and indulge in top-of-the-line amenities without sacrificing the cozy and familiar comforts that make a house a home.
Now, envision all of this plus an added level of financial flexibility that grants you access to the housing market so you can focus on the future.
All this and more is possible at the Emerson Townhomes in Victoria’s illustrious Oaklands neighbourhood.
Featuring an idyllic blend of quality, location and financial accessibility, the new development meets the diverse needs of today's discerning homebuyers at every stage of life. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, a young family branching out or downsizing, bask in the brilliance of peak modern living with the quaint, timeless charm of a traditional neighbourhood.
Location, location, location
Striking a balance between quiet and cosmopolitan can be a challenge. You want convenient access to a city but don’t want to get lost in the hustle and bustle and noise of urban living.
Located at 2536-2538 Shelbourne Street, Emerson meets you in the middle, offering a perfect home base only 10 minutes from downtown Victoria while being tucked away enough to serve as your calm and cozy oasis to get away from it all.
The laid-back location in the Oaklands neighbourhood also lends itself to a rich history, characterized by mature trees, heritage homes and a beautiful blend of historical and modern architecture.
Not to mention its proximity to schools, including St. Patrick’s Elementary School, Oaklands Elementary School, Lansdowne Middle School and Victoria High School, as well as parks, such as David Spencer Park and Oaklands Park, restaurants, grocery stores and shopping centres.
The beauty of Emerson is that everything you need is close by, with anything you could want not far behind.
Comfort, quality and craftsmanship
Paired with its prime location is a sophisticated and stylish aesthetic. Emerson embraces the essence of the Saltbox style, featuring unique architectural design by dHKarchitects, a local award-winning firm celebrated for its innovative and sustainable designs. Frame Properties is also partnering with Vancouver Island’s Agius Builders, whose dedication to craftsmanship guarantees a home that is not only beautifully constructed but also sustainable and efficient.
Featuring two-bed and flex, three-bed and three-bed and flex floorplan options, the layouts are diverse and versatile, with homes available in the Courtyard, Boulevard and Parkside Collections.
Boasting high ceilings on the main level for an expansive feel, residents can enjoy a rare combination of uncompromised quality and affordability. This commitment to craftsmanship also extends to its interior amenities, with suites featuring modern kitchens with Samsung appliances (upgradeable to Fisher Paykel), finished garages – many electric vehicle-ready – and suitable for various uses and optional upgrades, such as heated bathroom floors and ductless heat pump systems for air conditioning.
Outside of their individual homes and private patios, residents also receive access to a private 1,000+ square-foot park and green space, allowing for a vibrant and engaging community life.
Financial flexibility
For many, entering the housing market may seem scary and challenging. Emerson represents a stable and achievable investment opportunity in a market often characterized by high demand and limited supply.
Frame Properties, the developer behind Emerson, has an exclusive partnership with the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), offering a 35-year amortization option for those wishing to break into Victoria’s consistently growing real estate market.
This advantage offers enhanced flexibility through lower monthly payments, making homeownership more accessible. Other exclusive offers include up to $3,000 cash back on eligible mortgages and the opportunity to lock into the lowest possible rate over the next 18 months.
With anticipated rate cuts by the Bank of Canada expected to lower monthly mortgage payments, this ideal combination of stability and growth positions Emerson as an attractive option for those seeking to secure a home in a desirable location.
"Emerson is more than just a place to live; it's a community designed to enhance the lifestyle of its residents,” says Patrick Conn, a partner with Frame. “With our partnership with RBC, we're making homeownership more attainable and financially sound."
Sales of Emerson homes are now available to the public. Move-in dates are expected to begin as early as Q42025.
