Vancouver Neighbourhood Property Series: Shaughnessy

Shaughnessy is one of Vancouver’s oldest and most prestigious neighbourhoods. It is divided into First Shaughnessy, Second Shaughnessy, and Third Shaughnessy. First is 16th to King Ed. Second is Kind Ed to 33rd. And, Third is 33rd to 41st. Oak to the east and Arbutus or East Boulevard/Marguerite/Laburnum to the west.
The neighbourhood vibe is clearly wealthy, prestigious, beautifully maintained large historic, and new, homes. Stunning landscaping. Very walkable and flat. It also tends to be quiet with minimal vehicle or foot traffic. With the older, particularly large mansions, it’s easy to imagine the large and lavish events that would have taken places during the past century.

Actually, Maple Street is the border, not Laburnum St.

Thank you for the additional note here. :)

"Beautifully maintained"? 😂
Have you walked through there? There are a LOT of houses in Shaughnessy that are basically rotting away and have not been repainted in decades, if ever. Not to mention all the gardens that have had little or no attention being paid to them. Or the boundary walls that are leaning over.
I know there are a lot of expensive houses in the area, but there are just as many that are in sorry shape. I guess the owners can't afford to maintain them and no one can redevelop them. All the enormous trees in the area make it pretty gloomy and dark in places as well. The whole area comes across as a sort of housing graveyard.
