"Glenmore" gets used as one name for an area that's really two fairly distinct halves. Buyers comparing Old Glenmore and North Glenmore are often surprised by how different the housing stock and feel actually are once you look closely.
Old Glenmore: Established and Central
Old Glenmore is the more established half — older character homes on larger, more mature lots, closer to Knox Mountain Park and downtown. It's the part of Glenmore that's been a settled residential neighbourhood the longest, and it shows in the tree canopy and lot sizes.
North Glenmore: Newer and More Varied
North Glenmore has developed more recently and offers a wider mix — newer single-family homes, townhomes, and condo product sitting closer to the Okanagan Golf Club and Wilden. It tends to appeal to buyers who want newer construction without leaving the Glenmore name behind.
Which One Fits Which Buyer
- Want an established, walkable, tree-lined feel? Old Glenmore.
- Want newer construction and more housing type options? North Glenmore.
- Golf access matters to you? North Glenmore sits closer to the course.
- Downtown proximity matters more? Old Glenmore has the edge.
Both halves share the same schools and general amenities, so the decision usually comes down to housing type and how central you want to be — not lifestyle basics, which are similar either way.
