Thornhill houses: your questions answered

How many houses are for sale in Thornhill?

At the end of October 2026 the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® figures showed 13 houses listed in Thornhill. That is a month-end count and it moves daily; ask Jared what is on the market today.

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

In October 2026, houses in Thornhill 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 Thornhill from June to October 2026?

Between June and October 2026, 8 houses sold in Thornhill; Maple Ridge as a whole recorded 247.

Is there a school in Thornhill?

No current School District 42 school operates in Thornhill. The district's Strategic Facilities Review states the Thornhill development area "has yet to start building units" and models Thornhill development starting once Albion and Silver Valley approach buildout, around 2030. The former Thornhill Elementary is a closed historic school, not a current catchment school, so buyers must confirm the catchment for the exact address with the district.

Which schools would serve a future Thornhill home?

Garibaldi Secondary and Whonnock Elementary are the schools the district review names as affected by future Thornhill development. Garibaldi Secondary is at 24789 Dewdney Trunk Road and Whonnock Elementary at 27471 112 Avenue. That is a planning projection for future development, not a confirmed catchment for a house that exists today.

Can I subdivide a Thornhill lot?

Only at rural scale while the Urban Reserve applies. Official Community Plan policy 3-26 sets a 2.0-hectare minimum parcel size for subdivision of Urban Reserve land, and policy 3-24 bars support for urban development until the population and capacity thresholds are met. A small-lot split that works in Albion does not work here.

Is there an aquatic centre or recreation centre in Thornhill?

No. No recreation centre is located in Thornhill; the City's main indoor facility is Maple Ridge Leisure Centre at 11925 Haney Place in the Town Centre. Thornhill's own facility is Thornhill Hall at 26007 98 Avenue, a community hall with capacity for 100 people, beside Thornhill Park.

What did houses in Thornhill sell for?

More Maple Ridge houses

Thornhill Maple Ridge Houses: streets and boundaries

  • Thornhill is an east Maple Ridge hill area, not a west-side area: its named civic anchors are Thornhill Park and Hall at 26007 98 Avenue and the Thornhill Trails staging area at 256 Street and 104 Avenue.
  • The City describes Thornhill on its neighbourhoods page as "a heavily forested, mainly residential area with several farms and nurseries," with a hiking and horseback riding trail network on 256 Street.
  • The City publishes no street-by-street boundary for the Thornhill MLS sub-area; the governing City frame is the Official Community Plan's Thornhill Urban Reserve, not a neighbourhood plan.

Thornhill Maple Ridge Houses: the housing stock

  • The existing stock is large rural-residential lots with farms and nurseries in a heavily forested setting — the City's own description — not a built-out subdivision pattern.
  • Subdivision is held to a rural scale: Official Community Plan policy 3-26 states the minimum parcel size for subdivision of land designated Urban Reserve is 2.0 hectares, which is why Thornhill lots do not split like Albion or Silver Valley lots.
  • Thornhill Park at 26007 98 Avenue is a community park with a 12-hole tone pole disc golf course, hall, playground, tennis court, trails and washrooms, open 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. — the built landmark in an otherwise unbuilt area.

Thornhill Maple Ridge Houses: rules that affect buyers

  • Urban development is not supported yet: Official Community Plan policy 3-24 retains Thornhill as a long-term Urban Reserve until the District population exceeds 100,000 and residential capacity in the existing urban area approaches buildout.
  • Before any urban development, policy 3-25 requires an amended Regional Context Statement approved by Metro Vancouver, a Fraser Sewer Area extension approved by the GVS&DD Board, and an adopted Area Plan covering density, fiscal impact, environmentally sensitive areas, an agricultural impact assessment, an aquifer groundwater study and a transportation plan.

Thornhill Maple Ridge Houses: local details a buyer would not know

  • Thornhill Trails is a 17-trail hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding network on 256 Street, and the City built a gravel parking lot and pit toilet at the staging area at 256 Street and 104 Avenue.
  • Kanaka Creek Regional Park runs along Kanaka Creek west and south of Thornhill, with a 256 Street section at 11450 256 Street, the Bell-Irving fish hatchery and Cliff Falls.
  • There is no library branch in Thornhill; the Maple Ridge Public Library is at 130 – 22470 Dewdney Trunk Road.
  • Groundwater is a documented Thornhill issue: an aquifer groundwater management study is one of the studies the Official Community Plan requires before any urban development, which is a signal to test well and septic assumptions lot by lot rather than assume City services.
  • The disc golf course at Thornhill Park is described by the City as hilly and forested, with each hole named after a native BC plant — the terrain description matches the sloped lots around 98 and 100 Avenue.

Thornhill Maple Ridge Houses: development and new projects

  • The governing "project" for Thornhill is policy, not construction: the Official Community Plan Urban Reserve (policies 3-24 to 3-26) must be lifted through the policy 3-25 steps before an Area Plan or urban subdivision can proceed. Status (as of November 3, 2026): Urban Reserve still in place in the Official Community Plan chapter read.
  • Safety improvements at Dewdney Trunk Road and 256 Street, including road widening, are listed in the City's 2026–2030 Capital Plan highlights — the one capital item that touches Thornhill's main access corner. Status (as of November 3, 2026): in the adopted 2026–2030 Capital Plan.

Thornhill Maple Ridge Houses: costs and taxes

  • The Thornhill-specific cost fact is land, not tax: the 2.0-hectare Urban Reserve minimum parcel size in Official Community Plan policy 3-26 limits how a Thornhill property can be split or financed as development land.

Thornhill Maple Ridge Houses: getting around

  • Route 748 (Thornhill / Haney Place) is the only bus route into Thornhill: TransLink's timetable shows a loop from Haney Place via River Road, 240 Street, McClure Drive, Jackson Road, 100 Avenue, 256 Street, 98 Avenue, 264 Street and 268 Street, running about every two hours Monday to Saturday, with some trips via Port Haney Station.
  • There is no West Coast Express station, rapid transit or second bus route in Thornhill — Haney Place, reached by the 748, is the transfer point for the R3 RapidBus and the 701.

Thornhill Maple Ridge Houses: risks and due diligence

  • Check slope and terrain, not floodplain, first: Thornhill is an upland hill area, the Fraser River floodplain lies to the south, and the City's flood document for residents is its citywide "Be Flood Ready" guide covering Fraser River flooding and river monitoring.
  • Check servicing before assuming City water or sewer: the Official Community Plan requires a Fraser Sewer Area extension and an aquifer groundwater study before urban development, so a Thornhill lot's well and septic status must be verified for that lot.
  • Check Agricultural Land Reserve status parcel by parcel on Agricultural Land Commission mapping — the Official Community Plan confirms adjoining farm land but does not map one Thornhill lot's ALR status.
