A mountain valley home, near Vancouver and the Pacific
Visit the beautiful city of Vancouver and the nature-blessed West Coast of Canada.
Our Lynn Valley neighbourhood In North Vancouver is a quiet suburb between forest-covered mountains and an inlet of the Pacific Ocean.
Your exchange home is a four-block-walk to Lynn Canyon Park. The park has a pedestrian suspension bridge that spans a dramatic river canyon, surrounded by the tall trees of a West Coast temperate forest. Lynn Canyon Park encompasses about 250 hectares.
Thousands of hectares of forests, and dozens of trails, are protected in parks in North and West Vancouver. But the City of Vancouver and all its attractions are also nearby, accessible by car, bus or passenger ferry.
Our split-level house has three levels or floors.
The house includes:
- A living room, dining room, kitchen with a four-person kitchen table, and a covered backyard patio with an outdoors table and chairs).
- A queen-sized bed in a master bedroom with a full, ensuite bathroom (bathtub, shower, sink and toilet.)
- Two more bedrooms (one with a queen-sized bed and another with a single bed).
- A second full bathroom (bathtub, shower, sink and toilet).
- A third bathroom (sink and toilet only).
- Wifi internet access for guests.
- Downstairs: an entertainment room with a large screen TV and library; a laundry room with a clothes washer and clothes drier.
Gardens and grassy areas cover the front and back yard. Trees and shrubs make the backyard very private, with both sunny and shady areas. The backyard also includes a greenhouse and a workshop/art studio.
In short, we live in a large, quiet and comfortable home. We live a short walk from wilderness but are also near a fascinating city and many other attractions and experiences in Super Natural British Columbia.
