T he fact that this snow globe of adventure and lightly tra cked nature is a 45-minute bus ride from downtown Vancouver makes it obvious why Lynn Valley is on the minds of young families and density- minded developers equally. With a very European, pedestrian- only town square anchored by a modern library and enough amenities to make Main Street envious, the neighbourhood's dearth of condos and strata units will soon be a thing of the past. Luckily for everyone—new resident or long-time local—nature here is big and sprawling. Whether you take the kids shing to mystical Rice Lake, or have some full-suspension "me" time on the converted logging roads that erupt from the top of Mountain Highway, "a quiet weekend in" is never really an option. And we haven't even mentioned the area's most popular tourist spot, the Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge. But all that is not to imply that Lynn Valley lacks in the civilized life. e new library, yoga studios, local bars and patios, great sushi and organic produce are all just a brief stroll from each other. Even the trailheads o er gourmet co ee and a history lesson, thanks to local café-meets-candy-and-souvenir-shop End of the Line General Store at the top of Lynn Valley Rd., or the Ecology Centre Café by the suspension bridge. Given the buzz around Lynn Valley, they better start putting on a few more pots of brew from now on. $684,896 $90,897 20,085 6,928 AVERAGE PROPERTY PRICE AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD TOTAL POPULATION TOTAL HOUSEHOLDS RENTED POPULATION BY AGE TOP ETHNICITIES PROPERTIES OWNED VS.
