Living in Highgate

Highgate is south Burnaby's village node along Kingsway between Edmonds and Market Crossing, anchored by the Highgate Village retail centre — a community-scale shopping district with a grocery anchor, pharmacy, and restaurants. The Edmonds Skytrain station on the Expo Line sits about a 10-minute walk north, and the Central Valley Greenway provides a regional cycling corridor. Streets just off Kingsway have seen significant duplex and townhome infill as the neighbourhood's older single-family blocks convert. Byrne Creek Ravine Park runs through the south end — a forested ravine with trails that give the area an unexpected green edge for an urban shopping district. Schools include Stride Avenue Community School and Byrne Creek Secondary.

Value-driven family buyers for whom accessible pricing and walkable daily amenities are the primary factors, transit-reliant professionals who want Expo Line access without Metrotown pricing, and first-time multiplex purchasers — Highgate consistently delivers some of the most accessible new-build ground-oriented pricing in Burnaby.

Highgate has seen consistent new-build duplex and townhome activity, fuelled by lot values that sit below the Metrotown and Forest Glen average while maintaining Skytrain proximity. Pricing is among the more accessible in Burnaby for new ground-oriented homes, which attracts a wide buyer pool and keeps inventory moving.

Buyer questions about townhomes in Highgate

There are 2 active MLS® townhomes listed for sale in Highgate, Burnaby on MultiLiving right now. The list updates daily as agents add or remove listings from the MLS® feed, so the count and every price you see reflect what's currently on the market, not a cached snapshot. You can sort by price, filter by bedroom count, or save the search to receive email alerts whenever a new townhome appears in Highgate. Some townhomes in this area are sold pre-construction before hitting MLS® — MultiLiving lists those pre-sale options too, so you see inventory other listing sites miss. MultiLiving's own agent team also tracks new-build multiplex projects across Burnaby directly with local developers, which is how some townhomes appear here before they reach the general public MLS® search.

The median asking price for townhomes currently listed in Highgate, Burnaby is $1,093,000. Most townhomes in Highgate, Burnaby are brand new construction, so prices reflect current land and building costs in Burnaby. Final sale prices on new builds are often within 2–5% of the asking price. Owner-occupied buyers can use CMHC-insured mortgages with as little as 5% down on the first $500,000 of the price (10% on the portion above, on homes up to $1.5M), and lenders can count 50% of projected rental income from the other units toward your qualifying income — which meaningfully lowers the effective cost of entry.

A townhome in Highgate is a ground-oriented home with its own front door, private outdoor space, and typically two or three storeys above grade. Compared to a condo, you get more living space, no shared building corridors, and land ownership directly under your unit — no strata tower management. Compared to a detached house in Burnaby, you get a lower purchase price because the land cost is shared across the townhome's units. Under BC Bill 44 (2024), most lots in Highgate now allow townhome-scale development, which is expanding the supply of brand new ground-oriented homes.

Most townhomes listed in Highgate, Burnaby are brand new construction or recently completed under BC's Bill 44 small-scale multi-unit housing rules (in force June 2024). New builds typically come with a 2-5-10 BC Home Warranty, and first-time buyers purchasing new construction qualify for 30-year amortization on CMHC-insured mortgages (versus 25 years for resales). Resale townhomes also appear when listed — look for "year built" on individual listings to distinguish new from resale, and ask your agent to pull the strata documents and depreciation report on any resale over five years old.
