Queens
Market Snapshot

Queens is a solid, well-established neighbourhood in central West Vancouver, positioned between the waterfront amenities of Ambleside and the prestige of the British Properties on the slopes above. The neighbourhood takes its name from Queens Avenue, its main spine, and offers a classically residential West Vancouver experience: tree-lined streets, mature landscaping, and a mix of mid-century and updated detached homes within reach of everything the municipality has to offer.

Queens Elementary School anchors the community for families with younger children, and the broader neighbourhood feeds into West Vancouver Secondary for high school. The location is genuinely central—Marine Drive shops, Ambleside Beach, and the seawall are accessible on foot or by a short drive downhill, while the Upper Levels Highway and Park Royal are minutes away in the opposite direction.

Prices in Queens typically range from $2.5M to $5M for detached homes, representing a mid-market position in West Vancouver that appeals to buyers seeking an established address without the ultra-premium of the British Properties or Chartwell. Queens is a neighbourhood where families put down roots and stay for decades.
