Neighbourhood
Our area is amazing. We are a short walk from Edgemont village which is a lovely little village with shopping and restaurants. https://edgemontvillage.ca/
We are very close to bus transit which can quickly take you to many tourist sites like: Grouse Mountain, Stanley Park, downtown Vancouver and more.
We are also not too far from the highway which can take you to Horseshoe Bay to catch a ferry to Vancouver Island or the Sunshine Coast or you can drive to Whistler for the weekend.
There are tons of beautiful hiking trails near our home too including stunning Cleveland Dam.
Getting to my home
We are about 45 minutes away from YVR - Vancouver International Airport via car. You can also take the Canada Line, a rapid train line, from YVR to downtown Vancouver and then hop on the Sea Bus and a public bus to our home. If you prefer to taxi to our home there are flat rate fees from the airport to North Vancouver
