Detached Homes
Market Snapshot
North Vancouver's detached home market is defined by mountain-side settings, generous lot sizes, and family-oriented neighbourhoods that consistently rank among Metro Vancouver's most desirable. With a GVR benchmark of approximately $1,854,800 for detached properties, North Vancouver offers significant value compared to the West Side of Vancouver — and distinctive access to outdoor recreation.
The most sought-after detached neighbourhoods include Edgemont Village, Lynn Valley, Canyon Heights, and Capilano, where homes on quiet cul-de-sacs typically sell between $2.2M and $3.2M. These upper neighbourhoods command premiums for mountain views, proximity to elite schools like Handsworth Secondary, and instant trail access from the back door.
More accessible price points exist in Hamilton, Norgate, and Queensbury (from $1.6M), and in the established family communities of Westlynn and Lynnmour (from $1.7M). Whether you're seeking a renovated character rancher in Grand Boulevard or a custom build in Forest Hills, North Vancouver's detached market offers something for every life stage.
