Westlynn · North Vancouver
One of North Vancouver's most active and accessible detached markets. Generous lots, established family streets, and Sutherland Secondary catchment — updated daily from MLS.
Westlynn is one of North Vancouver's most consistently active detached neighbourhoods — a well-established mid-district community where generous lot sizes, mature tree-lined streets, and strong family demand within the Sutherland Secondary catchment create a market that moves reliably through every cycle. The neighbourhood sits between Mountain Highway to the west and Lynn Valley Road to the east, with the distinctive "-lynn" naming convention of its crescent streets — Arborlynn, Briarlynn, Crestlynn, Floralynn, Greylynn, Hazellynn, Lauralynn, Poplynn, Viewlynn — reflecting the deep connection to the Lynn Creek watershed that defines the eastern district.
With nearly 60 detached sales over the past two years and a median price around $1.9M, Westlynn offers one of the most liquid and accessible detached markets on the North Shore. The housing stock spans from original 1950s bungalows on large lots through to significant newer builds on Kirkstone Road and Rufus Drive, giving buyers genuine choice across a wide price spectrum from $1.5M to over $3.8M. A small but notable townhome segment — Mountain Estates, Concorde Place, Craftsman Estates — adds additional options for buyers who want ground-oriented living in the neighbourhood at a lower entry point.

Selling in Westlynn
Westlynn's high transaction volume means that buyers have consistent options and are well-informed about recent comparable sales. In this environment, disciplined pricing is the single most important variable. Four factors consistently drive the difference between strong results and properties that sit on the market.
Lot size and topography
Westlynn lots range from approximately 5,200 to over 17,000 square feet — a spread that creates meaningful pricing variation even between homes on the same street. The larger lots on Hazellynn Place, Crestlynn Place, Bellelynn Place, and the upper reaches of E 27th and E 29th Streets consistently command premiums of $200,000 to $400,000 over equivalent homes on more compact parcels. South-facing yards and gentle topography add further value. Accurate lot-level positioning is the foundation of every effective listing strategy in Westlynn.
Construction era and renovation quality
The gap between an unrenovated 1955 original and a well-executed newer build on comparable lots can exceed $1.5 million in Westlynn. A 2025 new build on Crestlynn Drive sold for $3.81M while an original 1950s home on Mountain Highway sold for $1.245M in the same period. The neighbourhood's buyer pool is sophisticated and condition-sensitive — they know what recent comparable sales have achieved and they price their offers accordingly. Accurate condition positioning against the current comparable set is essential.
Street character and crescent appeal
The "-lynn" crescents — Arborlynn, Poplynn, Lauralynn, Hazellynn, Greylynn — carry a residential character and privacy premium over the numbered east-west streets and Mountain Highway. The crescent format means quieter traffic, more established landscaping, and a neighbourhood feel that buyers at the $2M to $2.5M price point respond to strongly. Properties on the named crescents consistently outperform comparable square footage on the numbered streets, and this distinction needs to be communicated in every listing.
School catchment positioning
Westlynn is in the Sutherland Secondary catchment — an important distinction from neighbouring Westlynn Terrace, which is in the Argyle catchment despite the similar name. The Sutherland catchment drives consistent family demand across the neighbourhood, and clearly communicating the catchment positioning is a meaningful component of every listing campaign. Families who have specifically chosen the Sutherland zone are a reliable and motivated buyer pool throughout Westlynn.
Westlynn's distinctive crescent streets, generous lots, and wide price range mean that micro-location drives meaningful pricing variation within a neighbourhood that covers a large geographic area.
Premium Newer Builds
The premium newer-build corridor of Westlynn, where Kirkstone Road and Rufus Drive have attracted significant custom construction over the past decade. A 2016 build on William Avenue sold for $3.22M, a 2002 build on Kirkstone sold for $2.44M, and a 2016 build on Rufus sold for $2.18M — demonstrating the substantial premium that well-executed newer construction achieves in the neighbourhood. These streets offer the most generous home footprints in Westlynn, with multiple properties exceeding 3,500 to 4,500 square feet.
Top of MarketLarge Lot Premium
Two of Westlynn's most desirable streets for buyers who want maximum lot size. Hazellynn Place offers lots from 8,000 to over 14,000 square feet with strong results — a 14,041 sqft lot sold for $2.155M in 2024. Carmaria Court features even larger parcels at 12,000+ square feet, with a 12,386 sqft property selling for $3.2M in 2024. Both streets have a quiet, established character with mature landscaping and a residential feel that the numbered east-west streets cannot match.
Largest LotsHighest Volume
The two most active streets in Westlynn by transaction volume, Appin Road and Arborlynn Drive together account for a significant proportion of the neighbourhood's annual sales. Appin Road spans the full price range — from $1.5M for an original 1958 home to $3.035M for a 2016 build — making it the most reliable pricing barometer for the neighbourhood. Arborlynn Drive has seen results from $1.615M to $2.615M, with the higher end driven by lot size (up to 12,084 sqft) and renovation quality. These are the streets where the most comparable data exists for any Westlynn listing.
Most Active StreetsEntry Level
The most accessible entry points into Westlynn detached ownership, where original 1950s to 1960s homes on practical lots have traded from $1.245M on Mountain Highway to $1.82M on E 14th Street. These streets attract first-time detached buyers stepping up from attached housing who want the Sutherland catchment and Westlynn's established residential character at the lowest available price point. Properties here benefit from the neighbourhood's consistent demand but require accurate pricing relative to condition, as the buyer pool at this level is value-focused and well-informed.
Entry PointTownhome Complexes
Westlynn's townhome segment is small but significant for buyers who want ground-oriented living in the neighbourhood at a lower entry point than detached ownership. Mountain Estates on Cedar Village Crescent offers three and four-bedroom units from $935,000 to $1.075M. Concorde Place on Rufus Drive has produced results from $1.55M to $1.7M for larger three-bedroom townhomes. Craftsman Estates on Mountain Highway sold a three-bedroom at $1.295M in 2025. For families who want the Westlynn lifestyle and Sutherland catchment without the full detached commitment, these complexes offer practical alternatives within the neighbourhood.

Life in the neighbourhood
Life in Westlynn is defined by its established residential character, generous lots, and the quiet crescent-street layout that gives the neighbourhood a sense of privacy and community that busier grid-pattern neighbourhoods cannot match. The "-lynn" crescents wind through mature trees and landscaped yards, creating a residential environment where children play on the street and neighbours know each other by name. It is a neighbourhood that attracts families who have been specifically looking for this kind of established residential character and who recognise that Westlynn delivers it at a price point that remains accessible relative to the premium western district alternatives.
For everyday logistics, the neighbourhood sits between Mountain Highway and Lynn Valley, with practical access to both. Lynn Valley Centre provides grocery stores, cafes, and services within a short drive. The Upper Levels Highway is accessible via Mountain Highway for commuters heading west to the Lions Gate Bridge or east to the Ironworkers Memorial Bridge. The neighbourhood's central mid-district position means it is neither as remote as the upper mountain communities nor as urban as the Lonsdale corridor — a balance that consistently appeals to families who want established residential living with practical connectivity.
Schools serving Westlynn
Westlynn is served by Sutherland Secondary at the secondary level within School District 44. This is an important distinction from neighbouring Westlynn Terrace, which despite the similar name is in the Argyle Secondary catchment. For families who are specifically targeting the Sutherland zone, Westlynn is one of the most active and accessible detached neighbourhoods within that catchment. Catchment boundaries should always be confirmed directly with School District 44, as they can change.
What Westlynn offers that most comparable mid-North Shore neighbourhoods do not is sheer market liquidity combined with genuine lot size. With nearly 60 detached transactions over the past two years, buyers have consistent options and sellers have a reliable and well-informed buyer pool. The combination of market depth, lot generosity, and established family character is what makes Westlynn one of the most practical detached neighbourhoods on the North Shore for buyers who want an active market rather than a tightly held one.

Westlynn's market liquidity, lot sizes, and accessible pricing attract a broad and consistent buyer pool. Here is an honest look at who thrives here and where other neighbourhoods may be a better match.
Westlynn is one of the most accessible entry points into detached ownership on the North Shore, with original 1950s and 1960s homes on Mountain Highway and the numbered east-west streets trading from $1.25M to $1.7M. For buyers stepping up from a condo or townhome who want a detached home on a generous lot within the Sutherland catchment, Westlynn offers more inventory and more choice at the entry level than almost any other North Shore neighbourhood. The high transaction volume means these buyers can be selective rather than settling for the first option that appears.
Families who have specifically chosen the Sutherland Secondary catchment and want a well-established detached neighbourhood with generous lots consistently arrive at Westlynn. The "-lynn" crescents offer the residential character, privacy, and community feel that family buyers prioritize, and the $1.7M to $2.5M price range on Arborlynn, Poplynn, Lauralynn, and Hazellynn delivers more lot and home for the dollar than most comparable Sutherland catchment alternatives.
At the upper end, Westlynn has attracted significant custom construction on Kirkstone Road, Rufus Drive, Carmaria Court, and Crestlynn Drive — with results from $2.4M to $3.81M demonstrating the premium that well-executed newer builds achieve here. For buyers who want a premium custom home in an established residential setting with the Sutherland catchment at a price point below the upper western district benchmarks, Westlynn's upper tier is increasingly competitive with Edgemont and Canyon Heights on a price-per-square-foot basis.
For buyers who want to be in Westlynn and the Sutherland catchment but are not ready for the full detached commitment, the townhome complexes — Mountain Estates from $935K, Craftsman Estates at $1.3M, Concorde Place at $1.55M to $1.7M — offer ground-oriented living within the neighbourhood at a meaningful discount to detached ownership. These complexes attract families who plan to step up to a detached home on the same streets within a few years.
Buyers who want walkable village amenities will find stronger alignment in Edgemont or Lynn Valley. Buyers who want the Argyle Secondary catchment should note that Westlynn is Sutherland — neighbouring Westlynn Terrace is the Argyle option despite the similar name. Buyers who want maximum mountain access and trail connectivity will find stronger options in Upper Delbrook or Canyon Heights. Westlynn's appeal is rooted in its market liquidity, lot generosity, established crescent-street character, and the consistent family demand that the Sutherland catchment drives.
Westlynn sits in the Established Family lifestyle category. The Wallace Green buyer guide maps all 35 North Vancouver neighbourhoods across four lifestyle categories to help you compare.

Buyers drawn to Westlynn often consider the following areas as part of their search. The distinctions below are lifestyle differences, not rankings — the right neighbourhood depends entirely on what matters most to you.
Westlynn vs
Despite the similar name, Westlynn and Westlynn Terrace are in different school catchments — Westlynn is Sutherland, Westlynn Terrace is Argyle. Westlynn Terrace sits further north with a slightly more elevated position and proximity to the Lynn Valley trails. Westlynn offers more transaction volume, more inventory at any given time, and stronger market liquidity. Buyers who want the Argyle catchment choose Westlynn Terrace; those who want the Sutherland catchment with maximum market choice come to Westlynn.
Different catchment — more liquidity Explore Westlynn TerraceWestlynn vs
Lynn Valley sits to the east with its own town centre, trail network, and the Argyle Secondary catchment. Lynn Valley offers stronger village walkability via Lynn Valley Centre and more direct trail access to the Lynn Creek and Headwaters corridors. Westlynn offers the Sutherland catchment, more accessible entry-level pricing, and stronger market liquidity with higher transaction volume. Both are excellent family neighbourhoods; the catchment preference and walkability priority typically determine which one buyers choose.
Different catchment — more accessible pricing Explore Lynn ValleyWestlynn vs
Queensbury shares the Sutherland catchment and sits to the south with a waterfront-adjacent position and a mix of character homes, condos, and new development. Westlynn is further north with a more conventional residential character, larger average lot sizes, and significantly higher transaction volume. Buyers who want waterfront proximity and neighbourhood character choose Queensbury; those who want established crescent-street living with maximum lot size and market depth choose Westlynn.
Same catchment — more lot size Explore QueensburyWestlynn vs
Boulevard shares the Sutherland catchment and sits to the west of Westlynn with a similar mid-district residential character. Both neighbourhoods offer detached homes on generous lots at accessible price points. Boulevard tends to have a slightly quieter feel with lower transaction volume. Westlynn offers more inventory, more market data to inform pricing decisions, and a wider range of lot sizes. The two neighbourhoods appeal to similar buyers; the specific street and lot typically determine which one wins the final decision.
Same catchment — similar character Explore BoulevardWestlynn falls within the Sutherland Secondary catchment. The following neighbourhoods also qualify and offer alternative options for families who want to stay within the same school district.

Westlynn
Common questions about buying, selling, and living in Westlynn. For a property-specific conversation, contact Scott or Carson directly.
Despite the similar names, these are two distinct neighbourhoods in different school catchments. Westlynn is in the Sutherland Secondary catchment. Westlynn Terrace, which sits further north, is in the Argyle Secondary catchment. Westlynn has significantly higher transaction volume and more inventory at any given time. The catchment distinction is the most important difference for family buyers and is frequently misunderstood.
Westlynn detached pricing spans from approximately $1.25M for an original 1950s home on a compact lot through to $3.81M for a premium newer build. The median sits around $1.9M. Townhomes in the neighbourhood range from $935,000 at Mountain Estates to $1.7M at Concorde Place. For current benchmark figures, refer to the Market Update section on this page. For a property-specific estimate, contact our team directly.
Westlynn is in the Sutherland Secondary catchment within School District 44. This is an important distinction because neighbouring Westlynn Terrace is in the Argyle catchment despite the similar name. Families who are specifically targeting the Sutherland zone will find Westlynn one of the most active and accessible detached neighbourhoods within that catchment. Catchment boundaries should always be confirmed directly with School District 44, as they can change.
Westlynn is predominantly detached single-family homes on freehold land, with a small but notable townhome segment. The detached stock spans from original 1950s bungalows and split-levels through 1970s and 1980s family homes to significant newer custom builds from the 2000s through 2020s. Townhome complexes include Mountain Estates, Concorde Place, Craftsman Estates, and Kirkstone Gardens. There is no significant condo inventory in the neighbourhood.
Westlynn lots range from approximately 5,200 square feet on the more compact parcels to over 17,000 square feet on Crestlynn Place and E 27th Street. The majority of lots fall in the 7,200 to 10,000 square foot range, which is generous by mid-North Shore standards. The named "-lynn" crescents tend to have larger and more desirable lots than the numbered east-west streets, which is reflected in their pricing premium.
Westlynn is car-oriented for most daily errands. Lynn Valley Centre is a short drive east for grocery stores, cafes, and services. The neighbourhood does not have a village centre comparable to Edgemont Village or Lynn Valley Centre. The walkability strength is the residential character itself — the crescent streets are excellent for recreational walking, and the neighbourhood's location between Mountain Highway and Lynn Valley Road provides practical access to multiple commercial nodes within a few minutes drive.
Westlynn is one of the North Shore's most active detached markets, with nearly 60 transactions over the past two years. Well-priced homes attract motivated buyers quickly — multiple recent sales have closed in under 10 days on market. The high transaction volume means buyers are well-informed about recent comparable sales and properties with aspirational pricing tend to sit longer. The market rewards accurate pricing and effective presentation consistently.
Westlynn's distinctive crescent streets are named with the "-lynn" suffix reflecting the neighbourhood's connection to the Lynn Creek watershed: Arborlynn, Briarlynn, Crestlynn, Floralynn, Greylynn, Hazellynn, Lauralynn, Poplynn, and Viewlynn. These crescents carry a residential character and pricing premium over the numbered east-west streets, with quieter traffic, more established landscaping, and a neighbourhood feel that buyers at the $1.7M to $2.5M price point respond to strongly.
Key townhome complexes include Mountain Estates on Cedar Village Crescent (three and four-bedroom units from $935K to $1.075M), Concorde Place on Rufus Drive (three-bedroom units from $1.55M to $1.7M), and Craftsman Estates on Mountain Highway (three-bedroom at $1.295M). Kirkstone Gardens on Cedar Village Crescent also offers condo units. These complexes provide a ground-oriented alternative to detached ownership within the neighbourhood and the Sutherland catchment.
Westlynn's consistent transaction volume, generous lot sizes, Sutherland catchment demand, and established residential character have supported reliable market activity across different conditions. The neighbourhood's liquidity — one of the highest on the North Shore for detached homes — means sellers have access to a well-informed and motivated buyer pool in any market. As with any real estate decision, we recommend speaking with our team to understand current conditions before making any decisions.
