“We aim to support people who are downsizing and want the benefits of an easier and simpler lifestyle. Our apartments offer the perfect blend of luxury, convenience, accessibility and security," says Michelle Browne, Director of Mid Island at Pemberton Holmes Ltd.

Downsizing without compromise

Moving to Queens Garden apartments means stepping into a lifestyle where ease and comfort take precedence. You will instantly feel the difference that 9-foot ceilings, patios and large, triple-glazed windows make in creating a bright and spacious home. 

The penthouse units in particular, provide a sense of awe with their higher, vaulted ceilings and stunning views.

“These features make our apartments feel large and inviting,” Browne says, adding that the premium sound-dampening insulation in the floors and double wall construction throughout the building ensures a peaceful living environment.

“Our goal is to make downsizing a seamless transition, allowing residents to enjoy their lives without the upkeep of a large home or yard,” Browne explains.

A community of like-minded individuals

Duncan’s Queens Garden apartments provide a strong sense of community. The tenant’s lounge is available for meetings during the day and parties at night, and serves as a social hub where residents can connect and engage with their neighbours or can be reserved for private events.

This sense of belonging is enhanced by the surrounding Coronation neighbourhood, known for its walkability and proximity to the downtown core. 

"Duncan itself has a vibrant downtown with a strong business association offering  unique, independent local shops, wellness services, cafes, dining and social experiences," Browne says. 

Residents are close to local amenities, including the weekly Duncan Farmers Market, recreation centre, wineries and breweries, golf courses and hiking trails, and the new Cowichan hospital is also opening its doors nearby.   

Luxury and security combined

Safety and security are paramount at Queens Garden Apartments. The building has fob entry, security cameras throughout and gated underground parking, ensuring residents feel secure at all times. 

The building is designed and built to BC Step Code 4 standards which makes it eco-friendly and energy-efficient, with modern amenities like EV charging stations, Air Conditioner and Heat Pumps in every unit. Commitment to sustainability ensures that residents can enjoy the benefits of a housing complex that prioritizes environmental consciousness and the comfort of residents well into the future.

Engaging with the community

The management team is actively involved with local charities and initiatives, partnering with organizations like Wild ARC to support the community. 

“We’re not just putting up a building; we’re creating a community," Browne says. "We care about making small efforts that have a big impact, ensuring our residents feel connected and valued."

Whether it's enjoying the stunning sunrise and sunset views or participating in the many local events in Duncan and the Cowichan Valley, residents will find a welcoming community where they can continue to thrive.

"Our purpose-built rental apartments provide a unique opportunity for those looking to downsize without the extra costs of strata fees, property taxes, repairs and maintenance that come with owning a property," Browne  says. "We have a live-in caretaker and we offer easy living in a condo-quality home with all the amenities and features that make life comfortable and simply enjoyable."
