MLS® Sub-Area · West Vancouver
Westmount
Detached homes on the slope above West Bay.
The Short Version
Westmount climbs the hillside above West Bay, on streets like Westmount Road, Mathers Avenue, Thompson Crescent and Benbow Road. It's detached homes on residential streets, many with water views.
It's a short drive down to Marine Drive and the West Bay shoreline, with Dundarave's village a few minutes east.
What You're Buying
What sets Westmount apart
The assets, the trade-offs and the details worth checking before you make an offer.
Views Above the Bay
Hillside homes looking south.
Detached homes on sloping lots, many with views over West Bay and the water, on quiet residential streets.
Steeper streets and driveways, and the usual hillside checks on retaining walls and drainage.
Close to the Water and the Village
Hillside living without the long drive.
West Bay's shoreline and Dundarave's shops and pier are a few minutes away, and the Upper Levels Highway is close for commuting.
Homes on Westmount's lower streets often compare with West Bay and Altamont, not with the upper slopes. Choose comparable sales carefully, especially when a view is involved.
Renovate, Rebuild or Add a Unit
Older homes on good lots.
Many homes are original or lightly updated, and provincial small-scale housing rules allow more than one home on many single-family lots.
Before you plan a rebuild or a second unit, confirm zoning, setbacks and anything registered on title, and price slope and drainage work early.
"Westmount gives you the West Bay views and the quick trip to Dundarave, usually for less than the waterfront below. It's a part of West Van I think more buyers should look at."

Schools in and near Westmount
Catchments are set by address, not by neighbourhood, so treat this as a starting point.
K to 7. IB Primary Years Programme, just below on Thompson Place.
Depending on the address, students attend Sentinel Secondary or Rockridge Secondary.
West Vancouver's catchments don't follow sub-area lines, and on the hillside two homes a street apart can fall in different catchments. Confirm the exact address in the West Vancouver Schools School Locator. Programmes like IB and French Immersion have their own enrolment process and limited space.
