THE STORY
The story of
Billings Spit.
A small shoreline with a long coastal story
Billings Spit sits at the meeting of Sooke Harbour and the Sooke Basin, a setting closely connected with the region’s maritime history. The Encyclopedia of Raincoast Place Names links the Billings coastal names to William Thomas Billings, an assistant surgeon aboard HMS Herald during the 1846 survey of these waters. That recorded name is one layer in a much longer Indigenous history of the coast.
Today the attraction is wonderfully immediate: a compact coastal setting, mature homes and the changing light over the basin. Some properties offer water outlooks; others trade a front-row view for established gardens and a tucked-away feel. It is a neighbourhood for buyers who enjoy the water being part of the everyday landscape.

BILLINGS SPIT · SOLD & PENDING MARKET SNAPSHOT
A year of sold and pending activity
November 1, 2025–October 31, 2026 · using the sold-date search filter confirmed by New Chapter Real Estate Team. The snapshot includes both sold (SLD) and pending (PND) records returned in the supplied Matrix report, with property types kept separate.
12 sold and pending records · 12 marked sold (SLD) · 0 marked pending (PND).
Small samples: detached homes (1); condo apartments (4); half duplexes (1); residential land (1). With fewer than five records, individual properties can strongly affect these figures. A one-record median and range describe that record alone.
Pending status: Pending records are included in all figures above, using their reported prices and DoM. Statuses are as shown in the supplied report; pending records are identified separately and are not presented as completed transfers. Their prices or status may change.
Prices are rounded to the nearest dollar. The median is the middle reported price across sold and pending records, not the VREB HPI benchmark or a valuation of an individual property. Days on market use Matrix’s reported DoM field, rather than independently reconstructed cumulative marketing periods. Counts refer to MLS listing records.
