Bath Family Pharmacy
When it comes to health and wellness, having a trusted local pharmacy close to home makes all the difference. Bath Family Pharmacy, proudly serving the Village of Bath and surrounding communities, is a cornerstone of accessible, personalized healthcare in the area.
Owned and operated by pharmacist Mitul (Mike) Pavagadhi, Bath Family Pharmacy was established to meet a vital need in the communityâand continues to do so with care, expertise, and a personal touch.
đĄ A Pharmacy Built for the Bath Community
Bath Family Pharmacy officially opened its doors on May 24, 2016, at a time when Bath was considered an underserviced area for pharmacy care. Residentsâespecially seniorsâwere often required to travel to Amherstview or Napanee to fill prescriptions or access basic healthcare products.
đ For many, transportation was a challenge
â¤ď¸ For seniors, local access was essential
Mike recognized this gap and saw an opportunity to bring convenient pharmacy services to Bath Ontario, right where people live.
đ¨ââď¸ Meet the Pharmacist: Mitul (Mike) Pavagadhi
Mike has been a licensed pharmacist since 2008, bringing years of experience and dedication to the community.
đ Practiced pharmacy in Manitoba
đ Moved to Napanee, where he worked as a pharmacy manager with Loblaws for seven years
â Always had the goal of opening his own pharmacy
Bath Family Pharmacy is the realization of that goalâan independent pharmacy focused on people, not just prescriptions.

Loyalist Lifestyle Community in Bath, On
Just west of Kingston, Ontario, Loyalist Lifestyle Community has become one of the areaâs most recognizable landmarks. Nestled in the historic village of Bath, within Loyalist Township, this neighbourhood combines the beauty of a championship golf course with the charm of small-town living, making it one of the most desirable places to buy a home in the Kingston region.
The Course and Club
Opened in 1990 and designed by Ted Baker, the Loyalist Golf & Country Club is a par-72 course known for its balance of playability and challenge. With five tee blocks ranging from 5,000 to over 6,600 yards, it welcomes everyone from beginners to seasoned golfers. Over the years, the course has hosted prestigious events, including PGA Tour Canadaâs Great Waterway Classic, cementing its place as a premier golf destination in Eastern Ontario.
Beyond the greens, the club features a welcoming clubhouse, dining facilities, a pro shop, lessons, and community events. Plans are underway for an expanded clubhouse, complete with a fitness centre and indoor pool. These amenities will elevate the appeal of both the club and the surrounding community.
A Community Rooted in Connection
Life at Loyalist is about more than just golf. It is a neighbourhood where residents enjoy year-round activities, from tournaments and kidsâ camps to social gatherings and community dinners. The sense of connection extends into Bath, where heritage buildings, lakeside parks, and a strong community spirit create an inviting small-town atmosphere.
At the same time, the location keeps residents close to Kingstonâs urban conveniences. A short drive brings you to Amherstview, with its schools, shopping, and waterfront trails, or to Collins Bay, known for its marina and access to Lake Ontario. Within 20 minutes, you can be in Kingston, enjoying the cityâs restaurants, culture, and waterfront.
Real Estate Appeal
For buyers exploring Kingston area real estate, Loyalist stands out as a unique lifestyle choice. The community features a variety of homes, from executive bungalows, townhomes and semi-detached designs, many with direct fairway views. Properties here appeal to retirees seeking relaxed one-level living, professionals wanting a quick commute into Kingston, and families who value an active, connected community.
Many homes come with full or partial community membership, giving residents access to fitness, and social activities right at their doorstep. With ongoing development and planned clubhouse upgrades, homes in this community are positioned for long-term value growth.
Why Loyalist Stands Out
– Prime Location: In Bath, with quick access to Kingston and Napanee.
– Active Lifestyle: Golf, fitness, dining, and social opportunities all in one community.
– Real Estate Options: Modern bungalows, townhomes, and semis designed to fit different needs.
– Future Growth: Expanded amenities that will enhance both lifestyle and property values.
Final Word
Whether you are a golfer, a retiree seeking a welcoming neighbourhood, or a family looking for the perfect balance of lifestyle and convenience, Loyalist Lifestyle Community offers a rare opportunity in the Kingston area real estate market. It is a community that combines the best of small-town charm, lakeside beauty, and urban accessibility

MORE TRANSPARENCY PROPOSED in the OFFER PROCESS
MORE TRANSPARENCY PROPOSED in the OFFER PROCESS
Currently in the multiple offer process in Ontario, offers are submitted to the seller, and only the seller and listing Realtor know the content of all the offers, as Realtors are prohibited by law from sharing details of any offer with other buyers bidding.
Buyers are frustrated at having to âguessâ what price to offer to win the bidding war and sellers are often also frustrated that they canât ask a buyer if they are willing to beat the current best offer. There have been increased calls to implement a transparency model, where all buyers bidding on a home would know what the best offer is and are given the opportunity to beat it.
It has been argued that the current process has added to the excessive price growth we continue to see in some areas of Ontario.
Recently iPro Realty asked consumers and Realtors in the GTA for their thoughts on offer transparency. More than 1,000 Realtors and 150 consumers responded, with the following results:
⢠88 per cent of consumers think transparency should be allowed
⢠72 per cent saying it should be mandatory
⢠89 per cent of Realtors think there should be transparency
⢠Only 41 per cent of Realtors and 34 per cent of consumers think implementing transparency may have a cooling effect on the market.
Allowing the option for offer transparency doesnât have to be complicated. Sellers, through their listing agent, could be allowed to disclose the best offer on the table to all competing offers, with all participants given an opportunity to resubmit their offer or walk away. This isnât an auction process, it is keeping the process the same as it is today, but allowing Realtors to disclose the top terms of an offer to competing buyers, while personal information about buyer is kept confidential.
The auction process could also be an option as the more choices offered the better.
