This is the most distinctive compound on the list. A California coastal–inspired residence on an oceanfront lot in Belcarra — recently featured in a national home magazine — combines a fully renovated main house with a private coach house, over 1,700 sq ft of deck and balcony space, and a brand-new private dock. Those four elements in combination are genuinely rare at any price point in Metro Vancouver.

The 2025 renovations are extensive and calibrated. Three storeys of main living, with the coach house occupying its own separate level above — complete with a kitchen, living room, dining area, and bedrooms. The dock opens the property to boating and paddleboarding without a marina slip. Every deck is oriented to capture ocean views and evening light over the inlet.

What distinguishes Belcarra as a waterfront address is its permanence. It is a small, protected community — the land and landscape around you are not going to change. This property, with its renovation quality and editorially documented design, is the kind of asset that does not re-enter the market often. MLS R3083358.

Alderside Road is the most sought-after waterfront address in Port Moody, and buildable lots on this stretch trade infrequently and quietly. This 10,472 sq ft flat parcel is one of the last build-ready opportunities on what buyers in the area call the Golden Mile — positioned to capture unobstructed inlet and ocean views with direct beach access.

The groundwork is complete: survey done, geo-technical report in hand, architectural plans approved, services connected. For anyone with a custom home in mind, the time-consuming front-end work is largely behind you. The lot is flat — meaningful on Alderside, where grade challenges are common on adjacent properties.

Building on Port Moody’s waterfront is a once-per-generation opportunity for most buyers. If you are serious about designing and building a home that becomes a family compound for decades, this is the kind of site that makes it possible. Showing by appointment only — do not walk the lot unannounced. Listed with Rennie & Associates Realty Ltd.

Built in 2023 and designed with Burrard Inlet as the organizing principle, this 5,062 sq ft three-level custom home is a showcase of what Port Moody’s newest generation of luxury builds can achieve. Walls of glass and soaring ceilings pull the inlet into the interior rather than merely acknowledging it through a window.

The outdoor package is the centrepiece: an infinity pool with a built-in hot tub spanning the yard, framed by a covered balcony off the main living space. The primary suite occupies its own private balcony — a deliberate design choice that separates the owners’ retreat from the entertaining spaces below. The kitchen includes both a wok kitchen and a primary kitchen, a practical detail in a home built for people who actually cook.

The lower level offers a gym, a bar room, a den, and separate entry. An elevator serves all three floors. This is a home designed with long-term ownership in mind — every finish and material selection made to hold up rather than go out of style. Listed with Royal LePage West Real Estate Services.

South-facing on Alderside Road, this 3,099 sq ft home commands a private 150-foot dock and 11,991 sq ft of water lease — a maritime footprint that most waterfront properties in Metro Vancouver cannot match. Four of the five bedrooms face the ocean, each with a full ensuite bathroom and a private balcony.

The primary suite features floor-to-ceiling windows with 180° panoramic views over Burrard Inlet. The 40 x 24 ft concrete oceanfront deck delivers genuine outdoor entertaining space rather than a token patio. Five fireplaces throughout, a granite-countered island kitchen with a large pantry, and a lower-level suite with private entry make this home functional at every level.

Built in 1962 and partly renovated in 2025, this property sits at an interesting intersection: move-in ready as it stands, with the bones and the waterfront address to support a significant custom build if the next owner chooses to go that route. Legal dock licence is available on request. Note: the seller holds a real estate licence — disclosure is noted. Listed with Nu Stream Realty Inc.

The Sakura Estate is the most architecturally singular property on this list — a 1963 rancher-with-basement designed by Muirhead & Justice, who were among the early pioneers of modern garden design in Canada. The home has been documented editorially and is heading for international print, which is not marketing language. It means the design holds up under genuine scrutiny.

Cedar, glass, and granite construction anchored by a 60-year-old cherry blossom tree on a 27,578 sq ft lot beside the Vancouver Golf Club in Coquitlam West. The wabi-sabi philosophy embedded in the design — an embrace of natural materials, age, and the passage of time — gives the property a character that no amount of fresh construction can replicate. An outdoor pool, hot tub, wine room, bar room, and expansive lower-level recreation space sit beneath the aesthetics.

At 4,786 sq ft with 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and a full lower level, there is real living space beneath the story. Listed below BC assessed value. This is a Power of Attorney (POA) sale. Listed with Royal LePage Sussex.

Harbour Chines is one of Coquitlam’s most established luxury enclaves, and this 2024-built home on an 11,000 sq ft greenbelt lot is a strong argument for why buyers seek it out. At 5,585 sq ft across three levels, the property was designed around a specific vision: bespoke materials, serious scale, and a private setting where the outlook is protected against future development.

The main floor kitchen anchors around an 11 ft marble island with custom millwork throughout. The basement is engineered for serious entertaining — a private gym, a media room, and a bar with a 14 ft island. Upstairs, every bedroom is proportioned like a hotel suite. Outdoor living overlooks the greenbelt, which means that view is permanent.

Note that the listed price does not include GST (new construction). A legal suite is included in the basement configuration. Tenanted property — please provide notice to show. Photos are virtually staged. Listed with Royal LePage West Real Estate Services.

A 2020 custom build in Harbour Place — this 4,360 sq ft home was designed for the entertainer and the family in equal measure. The covered main-floor deck includes built-in heaters and a BBQ station, which means year-round outdoor living is practical rather than aspirational. Mountain views from the upper levels.

The lower level includes a legal 2-bedroom suite, functional as a mortgage helper or for multigenerational living. A triple car garage with EV charging and a whole-home generator are the practical inclusions that experienced homeowners specifically seek out when building long-term. No GST on this property.

At $3.2M for a 2020 build with a legal suite, triple garage, and mountain views, this is one of the most straightforwardly solid buys on the list. Originally listed at $3.3M, now at $3,199,900 after 99 days on market — there is room for a conversation. Listed with Macdonald Realty.

The numbers here are notable: 8 bedrooms, 8.5 bathrooms, 5,755 sq ft across three levels on a 10,220 sq ft lot in West Coquitlam. A 2023 new build, unoccupied. The configuration is engineered for maximum flexibility — a guest room on the main level with a full ensuite, the primary suite upstairs with a spa-inspired ensuite and walk-in closet, three additional bedrooms upstairs each with their own ensuites, plus a 2-bedroom legal suite and a separate 1-bedroom guest area with independent entry on the lower level.

Radiant heat, central A/C, a triple car garage with lane access, and mountain views. If you are buying for an extended family, or want a home where carrying costs are meaningfully offset by suite income, the dual lower-level configuration changes the economics of ownership considerably.

The home launched at $2,788,800 in November 2025 and has since been repriced to $3,100,000 — a repositioning worth asking the listing agent to explain before making an offer. Listed with Royal LePage Sterling Realty.

6,110 sq ft on 10,975 sq ft of lot in West Coquitlam — this 2013-built home is the most feature-dense property on the list. A two-way stone fireplace anchors the grand living and dining areas, which carry soaring ceilings that deliver a sense of volume difficult to replicate in newer builds at this price. The kitchen runs a 60″ Wolf and Sub-Zero appliance package alongside a full spice kitchen.

The lower level is purpose-built for serious entertaining: a legal one-bedroom suite, a rec room with a wet bar, a fully equipped media room, a games room, and a custom wine cellar. The triple garage measures 31′11″ x 21′10″ — among the most generously proportioned residential garages I have seen in this market at any price point. Outdoors: a hot tub, sundecks, and a fenced yard. New furnace and A/C in 2025.

The Rochester Avenue corridor in West Coquitlam consistently draws buyers who prioritize depth of features and lot size over newness.

At nearly half an acre in Central Coquitlam, LeClair Drive closes this list on a note most urban buyers do not expect to find: a genuinely private, resort-calibre outdoor experience within city limits. The long cedar-lined driveway and the sound of Mundy Creek adjacent to the property are not staging — they are the site itself, and they are permanent.

The outdoor amenities are extensive and well-documented: an inground pool, a pizza oven, a built-in BBQ, a hot tub, a zip line, multiple high-end decks, an outdoor TV, heaters, a gas fireplace, an artificial turf athletic area, and a three-piece bathroom positioned by the pool. Close to $250,000 in recent upgrades on top of a complete 2012 renovation of the 1987 home. A 4K drone film is available for those who want to understand the property’s scale before booking a showing.

5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms — configurable to 7 bedrooms if needed. This is the most lifestyle-forward property on the list. Not about water views or new construction, but about what happens when a lot on Mundy Creek gets the investment it deserves. A rare land play dressed as a family home.
