- The
Delbrook
area is so named because of the avenue that runs through it.
Situated on a south facing hillside, development started in the 1950's
and carried on through the 60's. It is now a well established section
of North Vancouver, with the gardens to prove it.
- Many
homes in the Delbrook area are “Post and Beam” homes. For those
unfamiliar with the design, post and beams are built to show off the
support beams of the roof, giving height to the rooms. The roof itself
is often tar and gravel, with a gentle slope from its apex. Most post
and beams give a house a feeling of space and volume. A large number
of lots offer some views of the Burrard Inlet and of downtown Vancouver.
- One elementary school and one Junior
High School (Balmoral) are located nearby.
- Delbrook is a quiet and family
oriented area, where the spacious lots provide a lot of room for families.
Unusual for the North Shore, Delbrook Plaza offers a mix of commercial
and residential (apartments) space.
- Price
Range: from $799,000 to $1,200,000
