What Renfrew Heights is actually like

Half duplexes dominate, with a smaller but real number of townhouses. This is the same lot-by-lot rebuild pattern as Renfrew below it.

The elevation gives some homes genuine views north, which is priced into individual listings rather than the area as a whole.

Prices per square foot sit near the middle of the Vancouver range, well below the west side and above the city's eastern edge.

Transit is bus-based. Rupert and Renfrew stations on the Millennium Line serve the northern part of the area better than the southern part.

Rapid transit

Rapid transit is close but generally beyond an easy walk from most homes here. Expect to drive, cycle, or take a bus to the station.

Distances are measured in a straight line from each listing to the nearest SkyTrain, SeaBus, or West Coast Express station, using coordinates published by TransLink. A straight line is not a walk: a station 400 m away across a rail cut, a river, or a highway can be a twenty minute journey. Check the specific address on a map before treating any of these numbers as a commute.

Check before you offer

  • → The distance to Rupert or Renfrew station from the specific address
  • → Whether a view is protected or could be built out

Of the 21 active listings, 7 are townhouses and 14 are half duplexes. 1 are freehold with no strata and 20 are strata. That mix decides whether you get a complex with a monthly fee or half a house with one neighbour.

How is Renfrew Heights different from Renfrew?

It sits on higher ground, so some homes have views, and its transit access to the Millennium Line varies more by address. The housing pattern is much the same: half duplexes replacing older single family houses one lot at a time.

Do Renfrew Heights homes have views?

Some do. The elevation gives certain homes genuine views north, but that is priced into individual listings rather than being true of the area as a whole. Check what a specific listing actually overlooks rather than assuming the elevation guarantees a view.

Is Renfrew Heights close to SkyTrain?

Transit is bus-based, with Rupert and Renfrew stations on the Millennium Line serving the northern part of the area better than the southern part. Check the distance from the specific address rather than the neighbourhood name.

Are Renfrew Heights homes affordable for Vancouver?

Yes, relative to the rest of the city. Prices per square foot sit near the middle of the Vancouver range, well below the west side and above the city's eastern edge, making it one of the more affordable ways into a newly built Vancouver home.

What should you check before buying in Renfrew Heights?

The distance to Rupert or Renfrew station from the specific address, whether a view is protected or could be built out, whether the home is the front or back half of the duplex, and suite status if the listing mentions one.

How current are these numbers?

They are recalculated from active MLS® listings every time the site is rebuilt, and were last measured on 2026-09-07. They describe what is on the market now, not what has sold.
