Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

West Vancouver is a quiet residential neighbourhood considered by us and many others to be the very best part of Vancouver. We are experienced exchangers, our first exchange being in 1987, long before the days of Internet! Our home is bright, spacious and comfortable; traditional styling with 4 bedrooms upstairs (2 with full ensuite bathrooms), separate living and dining rooms, and open-plan kitchen/family room. The property is large and private, west facing and very sunny, with a creek running through the back of the garden. We have a large fish pond and lots of visiting wild-life. The street is quiet and secluded, yet only a few minutes walk to shops, restaurants, galleries, parks, the ocean and beaches. It is a 25 minute car-ride to downtown Vancouver - well, OK, 40 minutes if you insist on traveling during the morning and evening business "rush-hour"times! There is a bus within a couple of blocks if you prefer not to drive, and buses get priority into the Downtown area.

From Vancouver, one can travel easily to the Okanagan (a semi-desert area somewhat like Northern California) or to the Rocky Mountains. Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands are accessible by ferry. If you are inclined to visit the American part of the Pacific Northwest, it is about 3 hours to Seattle and we have several regular exchange contacts in that delightful city. Our home is large and well-suited to non-simultaneous exchanges, should you wish to visit here at a different time. When here, you can be as involved or as separate from us as you wish, although we do enjoy showing visitors around our lovely city!
