So, we’ve teamed up with our pals at Bōde to give you the rundown on how much homes are selling for in some of the city’s most desirable neighbourhoods. 

KITSILANO

Should we even be surprised that Kitsilano’s topping the list? Of course, not! The stunning views of the beach and surrounding mountains obviously makes the area desirable for tourists and residents alike. Not to mention the laidback and health-focused lifestyle, walking proximity to nearby beaches, restos and more. 

Average price of home sold in the last year: $1.35 million
Average sold price in last year: 102%

MOUNT PLEASANT

Another highly popular neighbourhood among pretty much everyone, from baby boomers, to millennials to gen z’s , and for good reason. This vibrant neighbourhood is filled with beautiful homes, mural-covered buildings, upbeat breweries, cafes and boutiques, and it’s in the heart of modern Vancouver- both culturally, and geographically.

GRANDVIEW WOODLAND

In case you missed it, this area is the ‘hood for diverse groups. It’s the kind of neighbourhood that’s perfect to live in for its relative quietness, without being too far away from the vibrance of Mount Pleasant or Downtown. Plus, between the stunning heritage homes, iconic shopping & unreal eateries, we understand why Grandview Woodland is so gosh darn desirable.

SOUTH CAMBIE

It might be the smaller Vancouver neighbourhoods, but it sure has a lot of heart. Especially if you’re looking to settle down and raise a family. There are plenty of medical facilities, good educational options, and a slew of restaurants, cafes and shops that make it convenient, and super walkable. Plus, Cambie Park, Elizabeth Park and Langara Trail make for great adventures, any day of the week.

POINT GREY

Anyone who’s lived in Vancouver for any length has, at least, once dreamt of living in Point Grey. That dream might be unaffordable for many but it’s a dream nonetheless. With incredible views of the Burrard Inlet (from many places), two amazing beaches and the maximum ‘park space per person’ in all of Vancouver, this is not just a desirable neighbourhood but one of the most enviable ones too.

SHAUGHNESSY GRANVILLE

This mansion-clad area of Vancouver is straight-up elite and also home to some of the most iconic houses in the city. Needless to say, a red-hot desire for many including us. This gated and hedge-covered community is surprisingly quiet given its proximity to Granville Street and downtown and the line-up of nearby restaurants, galleries, shops and boutiques.
