If you're searching for a vibrant, connected, and family-friendly neighbourhood in Metro Vancouver, Brentwood Burnaby is calling your name.
Hi, I’m Erin Price Emery, your local real estate expert. In this post, I’ll walk you through why Brentwood Burnaby has quickly become one of the hottest places to live in the Greater Vancouver Area—whether you’re a first-time buyer, investor, or growing family.
A Mix of Old Charm & New Opportunities
One of the most beautiful aspects of Brentwood is its blend of character homes and modern developments. From older single-family homes filled with charm to new luxury high-rises, this neighbourhood has something for everyone.
The City of Burnaby’s Housing Choices Program is also expanding housing options to include laneway homes, triplexes, fourplexes, and row homes—bridging the gap between single-family homes and condos.
This means more diverse inventory, more choices, and more flexibility for buyers at all stages.
Family-Friendly & Full of Activities
Brentwood is an incredible place to raise a family. With top-rated schools like Burnaby North Secondary just steps away, your kids will have access to some of the best education in the region.
You’ll also find:
Multiple elementary and high schools
Community centres
Outdoor activities like golf, baseball, swimming, and more
Whether you're raising toddlers or teens, Brentwood offers the lifestyle families dream of.
Convenience at Every Corner
This neighbourhood is packed with amenities. From boutique shops to major retailers, everything you need is just steps away:
Whole Foods Market for organic and specialty groceries
Brentwood Mall for shopping and dining
Local restaurants, cafés, and theatres
Banks, liquor stores, and even cozy bakeries
Love the idea of walking to grab a coffee or catch a movie? Brentwood has you covered.
