Chineside houses: your questions answered

How many houses are for sale in Chineside?

At the end of October 2026 the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® figures showed 6 houses listed in Chineside. That is a month-end count and it moves daily; ask Jared what is on the market today.

Is Chineside a buyers’ or sellers’ market for houses?

In October 2026, houses in Chineside had no published sales ratio for the month. On the reports’ scale under 12% favours buyers, 12% to 20% is balanced and over 20% favours sellers.

How many houses sold in Chineside from June to October 2026?

Chineside accounted for 2 of the 273 houses sold across Coquitlam from June to October 2026.

Is Chineside in Coquitlam or Port Coquitlam?

Chineside is in Coquitlam. The board sub-area sits in central Coquitlam around Austin Avenue and Como Lake Avenue, the school district is School District No. 43 (Coquitlam), and Coquitlam's taxes, zoning bylaw and utility bills apply — there is no Chineside sub-area in Port Coquitlam, so a listing filed under the wrong city points the buyer at the wrong tax bill and the wrong school locator.

Can a Chineside house lot hold more than one home?

Yes, within the City's small-scale multi-unit housing limits. A lot of 280 square metres or smaller can hold up to 3 units, and a lot larger than 280 square metres and under 4,050 square metres can hold up to 4 units, counting secondary suites and carriage or laneway homes. The lot must connect to municipal water and sewer, and the exact zone — R-1, R-2 or R-3 — is confirmed lot by lot.

Which schools will my children attend?

The catchment is set by the exact house address, not by the sub-area name. School District No. Programs of Choice — French Immersion, Mandarin Bilingual and Montessori — are separate applications, and cross-catchment requests are decided by a lottery with in-district priority.

Is there a bus on the Chineside streets?

The published bus streets are Como Lake Avenue and Austin Avenue, not the interior streets. TransLink route 153, Coquitlam Central Station to Braid Station, runs Como Lake Avenue and Austin Avenue, and routes 156 and 157 also run Como Lake Avenue on the area's north side. A buyer should check the walk from the specific house to the nearest Como Lake Avenue or Austin Avenue stop against the current timetable.

What did houses in Chineside sell for?

10 houses sold in Chineside from November 1, 2025 to October 22, 2026, at a median price of $1,535,000.

How long do houses take to sell in Chineside?

The median was 12 days from listing to sale, and homes sold at a median 95.8% of the last list price (10% sold above list), for sales November 1, 2025 to October 22, 2026.

Chineside Houses: streets and boundaries

  • Chineside is in the City of Coquitlam, not Port Coquitlam — it is a Greater Vancouver Regional District (GVR) board sub-area name for the central-Coquitlam slope around Austin Avenue and Como Lake Avenue, and the City publishes no neighbourhood plan or boundary for the name "Chineside".
  • Chineside and Harbour Chines are two separate board sub-areas, both in Coquitlam — do not merge them; Central Coquitlam lies to the east, Ranch Park and Maillardville to the south, and Burquitlam to the west.

Chineside Houses: the housing stock

  • 3000, 1996, and no City, School District No. 43 (Coquitlam) or BC Assessment public page states a build decade, typical lot size, subdivision name or house style for Chineside, so none is claimed.

Chineside Houses: rules that affect buyers

  • Lots not connected to municipal water or sewer fall outside the SSMUH rules, so a Chineside lot's service connections must be confirmed before unit potential is priced in.
  • No Chineside neighbourhood plan exists in the Interim Official Community Plan's Schedule J neighbourhood plan list — Austin Heights, Burquitlam-Lougheed, City Centre, Hyde Creek, Maillardville, Partington Creek, Smiling Creek and Waterfront Village Centre — so Chineside lots are governed by the city-wide plan, not an area plan.

Chineside Houses: local details a buyer would not know

  • The "Chines" name is the trap in this sub-area: Chineside and Harbour Chines are separate board sub-areas with separate records, and evidence from one does not describe the other.
  • Coquitlam Public Library's Poirier Branch, 575 Poirier Street, is the branch on this side of the city; the City Centre Branch is at 1169 Pinetree Way.

Chineside Houses: costs and taxes

  • Coquitlam's 2026 Class 1 Residential municipal tax rate is $2.2756 per $1,000 of assessed value — $2.1993 for municipal services plus $0.0763 for drainage — and the grand total with other governments is $3.8520 per $1,000, per the City's Summary of 2026 Tax Rates.
  • City utility bills were due March 31, 2026; the 2026–2030 Financial Plan limits 2026 utility increases to 2% for water, 4% for sewer and drainage and 1% for solid waste, and estimates total municipal taxes and utilities for an average residential home at about $4,558.

Chineside Houses: getting around

  • Route 153 is the area's through bus: Coquitlam Central Station to Braid Station via Brunette Avenue, Laurentian Crescent, Austin Avenue, Poirier Street, Foster Avenue, Linton Street, Como Lake Avenue, Mariner Way and Barnet Highway, per TransLink's timetable effective September 7, 2026.
  • Routes 156 and 157 also run Como Lake Avenue on the area's north side, per their TransLink timetable routings; neither is routed onto the interior slope streets.
  • No SkyTrain station is in Chineside; the Millennium Line Evergreen Extension stations are in neighbouring areas, reached from here by the Como Lake Avenue and Austin Avenue buses.

Chineside Houses: risks and due diligence

  • Check the Zoning Bylaw No. 3000, 1996 section 519 flood and slope siting rules and Schedule G, the designated 200-year floodplain of the Brunette, Coquitlam, Fraser and Pitt rivers, even though this pocket is upland of those rivers.
