Neighbourhood guide
Living in British Properties
The British Properties is an exclusive hillside residential district on the upper slopes of West Vancouver, developed as a planned estate community with sweeping views.
Location & boundaries
It occupies the Hollyburn Ridge slopes above Ambleside in the District of West Vancouver, reaching up toward the Upper Levels Highway.
History
British Pacific Properties Ltd., backed by the Guinness family, acquired roughly 4,700 acres in 1931; in exchange for development rights it helped fund the Lions Gate Bridge, which opened in 1938, and built the Capilano Golf and Country Club in 1937, with the first phase laid out by the Olmsted Brothers.
Lifestyle
It is quiet, low-density and car-oriented, defined by large properties.
Housing & property types
Housing consists of large single-family estate homes, increasingly rebuilt as contemporary residences, with some townhouses.
Parks & recreation
The Capilano Golf and Country Club sits within the area, surrounded by hillside trails and creeks, with Cypress and Hollyburn mountain access nearby.
Schools
Served by the West Vancouver School District (SD45), with Chartwell Elementary and Sentinel Secondary in the area.
Getting around
West Vancouver Blue Bus routes serve the slopes, with car access via the Upper Levels Highway (Highway 1).
Attractions & landmarks
The Capilano Golf and Country Club and sweeping views over the Lions Gate Bridge and Vancouver are defining features.

BC's 2023 small-scale multi-unit housing legislation now allows three to four units on most single-family lots in larger municipalities, which is reshaping what detached lots are worth. Check the lot's current zoning with the municipality, and get a home inspection and a title search before removing subjects.
Budget for BC's property transfer tax on top of the price — it's charged on the purchase and first-time buyers and new builds may qualify for exemptions. See our BC & Alberta closing costs checklist.
