Living in Sandown combines open farmland with residential pockets and easy access to Sidney’s shops, services, and waterfront. Families appreciate the nearby schools and recreation facilities, while professionals and retirees value the semi rural atmosphere just minutes from the airport and ferry. Housing ranges from single family homes and acreages to newer developments that blend convenience with space. With more than 30 years of Island experience, I provide insight into how agricultural zoning, proximity to Sidney, and redevelopment projects affect housing demand and long term property values in Sandown.
