- Norgate
is a unique enclave within the boundaries of North Vancouver. Originally
developed in the 1940's as worker housing for the people building
ships in the shipyards, it has evolved with time to be appreciated
as one of the few places that offered generous lots with ranch style
(single level) homes.
- Today,
many of the area’s homes have been renovated beyond recognition and
are prized for their style. Norgate is a quiet neighbourhood of shady,
narrow crescents lined by mature gardens.
- One
elementary school is located there, probably reflecting the fact that,
comparatively reasonably priced, Norgate has been attracting young
families in the last few years. The nearest high schools are Carson
Graham in Central Lonsdale and Handsworth
in Canyon Heights.
- Price
Range: from $370,000 to $899,000 with an median
list price of approx. $499,000.
