North Jingle Pot Real Estate

Once a very rural region, this community has seen slow but steady development over the past few years. That being said, North Jingle Pot homes maintain their rustic atmosphere by way of larger lots and the natural backdrop of sloping Mount Benson. The Nanaimo real estate market often comprises a blend of properties, from million dollar listings to quaint cottage-style homes, and this is particularly true of North Jingle Pot. For a custom home, look to North Jingle Pot for large acreages and private lots.

North Jingle Pot Overview

Exclusive luxury homes in North Jingle Pot can be found lining the streets of pocket communities, such as Benson Meadows and Rockridge Estates. These two, well-sought after neighbourhoods offer sprawling estate homes with views of the ocean and Mount Benson from their high vantage point. While Benson Meadows properties are significantly-sized rural acreages—the area is home to just 74 homesites—Rockridge Estates bears a stronger resemblance to a classic Nanaimo community.
