This B.C. home is a great family home base, located on a quiet cul-de-sac just minutes from downtown Hope and Kawkawa Lake.
The five-bedroom/three-bathroom home features a partially covered deck overlooking a large, private backyard, detached workshop and shed area, and plenty of space to cultivate a garden. The lower level has a fully-contained two-bedroom suite that would make a great guest house, among many other uses.

Did we mention there’s a skylight in nearly every room??

Chilliwack is evolving from an agricultural community to a suburban dream come true, complete with its own farmers’ markets, local shops, and even music festivals. This two-bedroom “Rancher” is a great option if you’re looking to call Chilliwack home–it comes with a great kitchen design, a cozy corner fireplace to curl up by, and an ensuite soaker tub.

Due to increased demand, luxury homes and apartment complexes have begun popping up all over downtown Squamish.
This massive, modern home is the priciest on this list, but we can certainly see why. Spacious, 4-level open-concept space, rooftop sky lounge, and mountain views don’t come cheap! The townhouse is within walking distance of Northyard Plazas as well as Squamish’s stunning bike trail network, along with bakeries, breweries, and more.
Well, that’s all for now, Vancouver! If you’re not quite ready to dive into the world of homeowning, there are some great rental options out there, too.
