How many homes sold in Vancouver Heights from June to October 2026?

How big is Vancouver Heights compared with the rest of Burnaby?

In October 2026, Vancouver Heights held 2.3% of the 430 detached houses listed in Burnaby and 1.8% of the 1,309 condos and townhomes listed in Burnaby.

What mix of houses and condos is for sale in Vancouver Heights?

In October 2026, houses made up 29.4% of the 34 homes listed in Vancouver Heights and condos and townhomes made up 70.6%; of the 6 that sold, houses were 66.7% and condos and townhomes 33.3%.

Listings of detached houses fell from 16 in June to 10 in October 2026 (−37.5%); condos and townhomes rose from 16 in June to 24 in October 2026 (+50.0%).

Is there a bare-land subdivision or a strata lot I can buy in the Heights?

What trades is the fee-simple hillside house lot — and its R1 multiplex potential. If a listing suggests strata tenure on a detached-looking lot, tenure is a title check, not a listing-field check.

What is my Hastings house lot worth as a multiplex site?

Under the R1 SSMUH District, most Heights lots allow 3–6 homes — 6 only within 400 m of a frequent-transit stop on a lot of at least 281 m² — and multi-unit product may be stratified, so lot area and the transit test can make two similar houses worth very different amounts to builders. Price the multiplex value before listing as a teardown, and check the Burnaby 2050 OCP / Heights Urban Village direction for Hastings-fronting lots.

Can a multiplex built on a Heights lot be sold unit by unit?

Yes, where the district's conditions are met — Burnaby's R1 district provides that lots with two or more primary units may be stratified. The resulting units are strata lots: Form B diligence, fees and bylaws apply to each.

Is there a duplex development in Vancouver Heights I can buy into?

What exists is the R1 rule: A Heights lot can hold 3–6 units and product with two or more primary units may be stratified, so a stratified duplex half can exist on an ordinary house lot — verify the title and strata plan on the specific property rather than looking for a named duplex project.

Siena or The Sienna — what's the difference?

Neither is duplex stock; confirm the street address, not just the name, before booking a showing.

Which schools serve a Heights address?

Burnaby North Secondary is located in North Burnaby, but location is not catchment, and the Montecito chain (Montecito Elementary / Burnaby North Secondary) belongs to Montecito's own address — never promise it for a Heights address. Run the exact address.

What did houses in Vancouver Heights sell for?

From November 2025 to late October 2026, Vancouver Heights recorded 19 house sales at a median of $2,075,000.

How long do houses take to sell in Vancouver Heights?

Half sold in 21 days or less, at a median 97.1% of the last list price; 11% went over asking (sales from November 1, 2025 to October 22, 2026).

Lots and land in Vancouver Heights

Fee-simple lots

  • The sub-area's stock is detached houses on fee-simple lots — typical Burnaby residential lots, with larger and steeper view lots on the hill; Capitol Hill's upper streets are known for views over Burrard Inlet, downtown Vancouver and the North Shore mountains. A fee-simple Heights lot carries no strata, no Form B and no strata fees — title, Burnaby bylaws and any registered covenants govern.

Proposals and presales

  • Siena — 4451 Hastings Street (Landa Global Properties): a CONDO presale: — 38 residences at Hastings and Willingdon marketed with a spring 2028 completion, filed Apartment/Condo, Freehold Strata.
  • 4269 Hastings Street — proposal stage only: a six-storey mixed-use project (37 non-market rental and strata homes over about 2,900 sq ft of ground-floor retail) that has passed second reading (developer source).
  • 4472 Hastings Street

Streets, schools and getting around Vancouver Heights

  • What and where: Vancouver Heights is a City of Burnaby neighbourhood in northwest Burnaby (North Burnaby), on and below the Capitol Hill rise, with Hastings Street as its spine. The MLS® sub-area name (GVR board) is "Vancouver Heights." Nearby areas: Capitol Hill (the hilltop portion within/adjacent to this sub-area), Willingdon Heights, Parkcrest, Lochdale, Westridge, Burnaby Heights to the west, and the City of Vancouver (Hastings-Sunrise) across Boundary Road.
  • Plan frame: the City of Burnaby adopted the Burnaby 2050 Official Community Plan on December 9, 2025; it replaces the 1998 OCP Bylaw and takes precedence over older neighbourhood community-plan land use maps where they conflict. The Hastings Street corridor through the Heights is planned as the "Heights Urban Village," and the City has processed mixed-use redevelopment proposals on Hastings (for example at 4472 Hastings Street at Willingdon Avenue) to strengthen the village's urban fabric.
  • Over October 2025 – September 2026 the Burnaby detached median ranged $1,750,000 (June 2026) to $1,992,500 (December 2025); the condos & townhomes median ranged $643,250 (July 2026) to $720,000 (October 2025).
  • Housing fabric: predominantly detached single-family houses on a sloping, view-oriented hillside — early-to-mid 20th-century homes, post-war bungalows and Vancouver Special-era houses alongside newer custom rebuilds — with a limited number of low-rise apartments and condos along Hastings Street. Most homes are freehold; strata product is concentrated on or near Hastings.
  • Schools (SD41 Burnaby; Ministry-listed names only): two SD41 elementary schools sit on Pandora Street inside the sub-area — Confederation Park Elementary (4715 Pandora St, K–7) and Rosser Elementary (4375 Pandora St, K–7). Completed locator runs are documented on a single-address basis: 4375 Pandora St (locator range 4303–4375 PANDORA ST) → Rosser Elementary / Alpha Secondary (SD41 School Locator, run 2026-11-01), and the Capitol Hill sample 4715 Pandora St → Confederation Park Elementary / Alpha Secondary — so the two in-area Pandora Street elementaries split the street by address range while the secondary stays Alpha. Vancouver Heights catchment = Alpha Secondary on that settled chain.
  • Transit: TransLink's R5 Hastings St RapidBus runs along Hastings Street through the Heights, linking Burrard Station in downtown Vancouver with SFU's Burnaby Mountain campus, at least every 10 minutes at peak and 15 minutes off-peak; in-area stops include Hythe, Holdom and Kensington. On September 7, 2026, TransLink extended the R2 Marine–Willingdon RapidBus from Phibbs Exchange to Metrotown Station via Hastings Street and Willingdon Avenue, serving Burnaby Heights with peak service every six to seven minutes and replacing the peak-only 222 bus.
  • Anchors: Confederation Park (250 Willingdon Avenue — one of Burnaby's largest parks, hosting the cenotaph for North Burnaby's Remembrance Day ceremony), the Eileen Dailly Leisure Pool & Fitness Centre (240 Willingdon Avenue), the McGill Branch of Burnaby Public Library (4595 Albert Street) and Capitol Hill Reservoir Park (229 N Hythe Avenue), a scenic viewpoint park at the top of Capitol Hill. A new Confederation Park Community Centre beside the pool and library is a City capital project whose replacement project has been deferred.
  • No figure or zone is imported from any other area.

Good to know about Vancouver Heights

  • Two near-identical building names sit five blocks apart on the same street. Confirm the street address, not just the name, before booking a showing.
  • The "Heights" brand crosses the sub-area line. A Heights buyer's comparable set changes depending on which side of the filing line a building sits.
  • The civic cluster is mid-replacement — and deferred. The new Confederation Park Community Centre would retain the McGill Branch library (built 2001) and Eileen Dailly pool (built 1992) and replace the 1971 seniors centre — but the City states the replacement project has been deferred, so the 1971-vintage centre remains the operating fact.
  • The park is also the war memorial. Confederation Park hosts the cenotaph where North Burnaby's Remembrance Day ceremony is held — the sub-area's civic anchor is a park, a pool, a library and a memorial in one cluster at Willingdon and Albert.
  • Childcare arrived by repurposing a school. In August 2026 the Province announced funding to repurpose school space at Confederation Park Elementary for 20 new before- and after-school child care spaces — an in-area school gaining a second use, on a street whose two elementaries split the catchment.
  • The view is the lot, street by street. Capitol Hill's upper streets are known for views over Burrard Inlet, downtown Vancouver and the North Shore mountains, and view premium and sun exposure change street by street on the slope — with detached turnover at 38% in September 2026, pricing the view correctly is the whole game on the hill.
  • Zero townhome complexes and zero bare-land strata is a finding, not a missing search. The Heights' ground-oriented supply is the detached house — which is why its R1 multiplex potential, not a townhouse complex or a lot package, is the ground-oriented conversation here.

Duplexes and half duplexes in Vancouver Heights

What a duplex looks like in Vancouver Heights

  • The usual duplex form: The housing stock is predominantly detached single-family houses on a sloping, view-oriented hillside — early-to-mid 20th-century homes, post-war bungalows and Vancouver Special-era houses alongside newer custom rebuilds, mostly freehold, on typical Burnaby residential lots with larger, steeper view lots on the hill. A two-unit build on such a lot, stratified, is the strata-duplex form in Burnaby's current frame — the form is documented as a rule, and any future instance is documented fresh, by name and title, if and when it is built.

Local rules that affect duplexes in Vancouver Heights

  • Zoning and SSMUH (Burnaby): Zoning is the Burnaby Zoning Bylaw 2026, No. 14815, adopted June 9, 2026 and in effect July 1, 2026 — never the former 1965 Bylaw No. 4742.
