West Vancouver Real Estate - A Property Market in Transition
Forever the most expensive place to own a home in the Lower Mainland, West Vancouver real estate is coming out blazing with new projects that are focussed on densification of the Park Royal and Rodgers Creek areas of the city. With distinct neighborhoods already built out in Ambleside, Dundrave, the British Properties and other areas, the new West Vancouver property market focusses on sustainable housing, low-rise dense condo communities and other pre-construction master planned townhome neighbourhoods that make it more affordable to a larger number of homebuyers.



But don't get it wrong... the new consruction properties in West Vancouver will still command a huge dollar figure but you will be assured a great location, amazing features and finishes and outstanding living areas for your new home or condo, whichever you are looking for. Traditionally, most of the new development properties in West Vancouver's real estate market focussed on single-family homes built up teh North Shore mountains. This will continue as the shortage of land on the North Shore reaches a very critical level. However around the Park Royal grounds of West Vancouver, we have seen some recent luxury pre-construction condos being developed and planned, including the luxury Water's Edge residences as well as the up and coming Evelyn Park Royal condos on the North Shore. These will provide much needed housing on free hold land for purchasers or investors looking to rent out these new luxury homes. Other real estate builders and developers have focussed on the higher North Shore mountain communities to build the most luxurious and prestigiuos townhome and condo communities such as the Argyle, Boulder Court, and The British Properties by the Quigg Group. You can expect to pay a minimum of $700 per square foot for such residences .. and sometimes they command more than $1000/ sq ft as well.

The Communities of Interest in West Vancouver Property
If you are interested in purchasing a West Vancouver home or luxury condo, there are only a few new developments that may interest you. First of all, the Water's Edge real estate North Shore offering will provide luxurious condominium homes in a masterplanned setting along the water. Evelyn Park Royal condominiums will be the latest condo real estate release in West Vancouver and these will be marketed by Rennie. A big development plan is undergoing city council review right now for the West Vancouver Rodgers Creek real estate community north of the Uppers Level Highway. There are plans to build a large neighbourhood complete with new West Vancouver single family homes, townhomes and low-rise concrete condo residences. Other than that, you may want to look further north up the Sea to Sky Highway real estate in the North Shore for other waterfront and prestigious communities.

Waterfront West Van Real Estate
Blessed with a beautiful waterfront and a seawall connecting many of its most desired neighbourhoods, West Vancouver real estate is definitely one of the most expensive and sought after districts in all of the world. With close access to beaches, parks, trails, mountains and outdoor recreational activites, the West Van property market has survived what has seemed to be a market downturn in other muncipalities in Greater Vancouver. Because of its close proximity to top rated schools, services, amenities and community facilities, West Vancouver real estate is mostly desired by families, couples and retired individuals. Waterfront West Van real estate is the sought after and with communities such as Ambleside and Dundrave property, residents on the North Shore can enjoy ample choices when it comes to living by the water. Your selection of luxury waterfront West Vancouver homes and West Van condo waterfront properties are never to disappoint. Some of the West Vancouver homes on the water range from a low price point of $2 million all the way to over $20 million. These are luxury waterfront West Vancouver homes that the rich and famous purchase, often bought by movie celebrities, music artists and other famous personalities. For regular West Vancouverites, the waterfront West Van real estate condominium properties are the most sought after yet pricey homes. These waterfront West Vancouver condos range from smaller studio residences to penthouse three bedroom spectacular homes with great views of teh water, mountains and much more. Again, these are very pricey real estate condominiums in the best place to live in Greater Vancouver. Flip through MLS or this web site to see new West Vancouver real estate developments along the waterfront. There is also a great stretch of waterfront property in West Van along Lions Bay and Horseshoe Bay and an eventual release of new homesites and lots at Brittania Beach. The master planned West Vancouver Porteau Cove community by Concord will also be launching soon along the waterfront.

West Vancouver Mountainside Living at the British Properties and Rodgers Creek
The British Properties has always been a breathtaking place to visit and live. Now, with the latest release of home sites and lots as well as luxury West Vancouver condo townhomes and residences in the British Properties North Shore, you can enjoy this lifestyle for generations to come. The British Properties is land that was given to the family that built the Lions Gate Bridge and through years of rezoning and planning, the mountainside British Properties of West Vancouver real estate have become a haven for rich families and couples looking for a quieter and slower pace of life on the hillside. With the most amazing views of downtown Vancouver, the water and perched up on the mountainside, these luxury British Properties homes and apartment townhouses present a perfect residence. Many of these ultra-luxurious homes have the most amazing interior finishes with craftsman West Coast style architecture. The Quigg Group is one such West Vancouver luxury real estate developer who has built along the British Properties. Another great West Van release of land is Rodgers Creek development which will be on the north side of the Upper Levels Highway. Mountainside West Vancouver real estate is on the rise as waterfront property becomes unattainable for the normal family, so Rodgers Creek and the British Properties will become the next haven for luxury apartment homes and townhomes for West Vancouverites.
