What is Canterwood?

Canterwood is one of Gig Harbor’s most well-known luxury communities, offering a private, gated neighborhood centered around the Canterwood Golf & Country Club. Located just minutes from downtown Gig Harbor, the community is known for its larger custom homes, tree-lined streets, golf course views, and quiet residential atmosphere.

Homes in Canterwood range from classic Northwest designs to updated luxury properties, with many featuring spacious lots, high-end finishes, and views of the golf course, ponds, or surrounding greenery. The neighborhood is popular among buyers looking for a more private and established luxury community while still remaining close to shopping, restaurants, marinas, and waterfront areas in Gig Harbor.

The Canterwood Golf & Country Club offers optional membership amenities that may include golf, tennis, fitness facilities, swimming, dining, and social events. Memberships are separate from HOA dues and can vary depending on the level of access selected.

One of the biggest draws to Canterwood is the combination of privacy, community atmosphere, and convenience. Residents are close to Highway 16, making commuting to Tacoma or other surrounding areas more accessible while still enjoying the quieter lifestyle Gig Harbor is known for.

Canterwood is often considered one of the premier luxury neighborhoods in Gig Harbor and remains highly desirable for buyers looking for gated living, golf course properties, and a strong sense of community.
