Edgewood Avenue

Design: Mike Nixon

The 712 acres that now comprise the Broadmead Subdivision was the first post-War planned community to developed in the Victoria area. In order the control the quality and "feel" of the treed hillside site Broadmead Farms Ltd. imposed strict design guidelines and developed Edgewood Aveneue with a series of demonstration display homes. The naturalistic landscaping, and "West Coast Modern" design approach relied on expressive uses of timber construction along with fieldstone, shingle and cedar siding finishes and textures.
