If you are searching for a traditional neighbourhood with the smallest touch of affluence, yet buzzing with family life, you might find your next home in Dunbar.  Many residents have called Dunbar home for over half a century, but young families have also discovered its charm.  Secondary suites make for great off campus accommodation for students attending the University of British Columbia just minutes away.  Dunbar is the perfect mix of old, new, and everything in between.

 

The residents are as diverse as the commercial shops that line the main stroll.  From art studios to pharmacies, bakeries to barber shops, Dunbar is home to all the conveniences anyone could hope for.  Some of the highlights include the Dunbar Community Centre, the Vancouver Public Library (Dunbar branch), the long standing Stong's Market, and residents have supported the locally owned Dunbar Theatre for decades. 

​

Dunbar is a highly sought out neighbourhood, as it lays claim to some of the best public and private schools in the city.  Well kept tennis courts, Dunbar Little League, hikes through Pacific Spirit Park, and splashing at Chaldecott Park are just a few of the activities that keep the kids happy.

​

Dunbar is one of the rare areas of the city where one might enjoy brunch, meet a friend for a round of golf, take in an afternoon movie, and hit the pub for a nightcap, all in the same day.  It's practical, it's social, it's beautiful, it's Dunbar.
