The Neighborhood:

Tucked along North Vancouver's waterfront, this home sits right at Mosquito Creek Marina, a quiet working marina on the Spirit Trail with mountain and inlet views. It's an easy walk east along the water to Lower Lonsdale, home to Lonsdale Quay Market's food hall and shops, and The Shipyards District, with its restaurants, waterfront plaza, and seasonal events like the winter ice rink and Christmas Market. The setting is peaceful and residential compared to the busier Lower Lonsdale core, while still putting guests close to everything the neighborhood has to offer.



Getting Around:

The Spirit Trail runs right past the marina, making it a straightforward ~10-15 minute walk or quick bike ride east to Lonsdale Quay and the SeaBus terminal, which connects to Waterfront Station in downtown Vancouver in ~12 minutes. From there, guests can reach most of the city without a car. For driving, the property is close to both the Lions Gate Bridge and Second Narrows (Ironworkers Memorial) Bridge routes into Vancouver, and Marine Drive/Esplanade provide direct access along the North Shore waterfront.
