Townhouses in University

Community Information

Townhouses around UBC will place you squarely inside one of Vancouver’s lushest neighborhoods. With the western boundary meandering along the coast, this elite Westside community is full of more upscale shops, bakeries, and yoga studios than you can shake a stick at. Better yet, all this is just minutes from Pacific Spirit Regional Park where hectares of coastal rainforest open onto vast, windswept beaches.

Seemingly a world apart from downtown Vancouver, the University neighbourhood offers all the perks (and none of the drawbacks) of its splendid isolation thanks in part to the abundance of retailers that have sprung up to cater to UBC’s immense body of students, teachers, and researchers–and that’s just off campus. The University itself has several amenities that residents are encouraged to patronize and enjoy. Spend an afternoon exploring the Nitobe Memorial (Japanese) Garden or take in some culture at the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts. As a sustainable community full of cutting edge facilities, life around UBC has many tangible benefits, including public transportation that is both frequent and plentiful. The vast network of bus routes carries residents all around the community,  including to many private and public schools like University Hill Elementary,  Southlands Elementary, University Hill Secondary school, and Lord Byng Secondary.

Townhouses Around UBC

As an elite zip code with many properties valued in excess of $10 million dollars, housing around the University neighbourhood has gradually become more diverse as families demanded options that allowed them to reconcile the extravagant land costs with the unique work and play lifestyle exemplified by the community. Today, homebuyers have access to a good selection of mid to high range townhomes that offer convenient access to a colourful array of stores, restaurants, and coffee shops. In addition, there are the aforementioned benefits of the University grounds, which include an extensive network of crisscrossing trails where residents can lose and find themselves.
