Glenorchy, frequently called The Preserve, is bustling and fast growing. Long term development plans centre around the vision of a neighbourhood filled with walkably close green spaces, squares, retail and amenities. A self-contained small town atmosphere exists in this community. Generally considered part of the Glenorchy neighbourhood, Sixteen Hollow is a residential enclave nestled into a woodland setting.
Glenorchy has something for every demographic seeking newer homes in a convenient location: first time home buyers, professionals, young and mature families, empty nesters and investors.

Architecturally diverse, Glenorchy is built on a grand design of urban core residential luxury combined with commercial employment lands and buildings. A newer North Oakville neighbourhood, reputable builders began construction in 2012 with an eye to further development over the next 20+ years. Massive and modest two storey detached, semi-detached, large to moderately sized townhomes and condominium apartments coexist in Glenorchy. The upscale and executive freehold townhomes of Sixteen Hollow built in 2016/17, feature desirable contemporary decor materials and finishes.
This Oakville neighbourhood is envisioned to be walkable and transit friendly with natural open spaces and facilities to promote a healthy lifestyle for residents. The Natural Heritage System trails are perfect for exploring and wildlife sightings. The North Park and Sixteen Mile Sports Complex offer fitness programs, sports fields, splash pads, and naturally – hockey.
The Oak Park Smart Centre, the Fortinos Plaza or the RioCan Centre are the usual stops for groceries, retail, chain stores, and take-out or restaurant dining. All have ample parking. Boutique shops and services dot the community in residential street level retail establishments.
Glenorchy is a village-like neighbourhood. Home, work and play seamlessly integrate into day to day life. With everything you could want or need at your doorstep, it’s the perfect community for its active and “on the go” residents.
In addition to a variety of summer programs, Sixteen Mile Sports Complex can boast of its state of the art quad pad arena. For a little extra enjoyment, the dine-in Puckz Pub overlooks two of the ice surfaces.
