Government Road is an established residential neighbourhood of townhouses, condos, and larger single-family homes, many of them custom-built. It is bounded by Lougheed Highway on the north and Burnaby Lake to the south, between Gaglardi Way in the east and Sperling Avenue to the west.
Neighbourhood amenities
The Government Road neighbourhood is between Burnaby’s two large regional parks, the Burnaby Mountain Conservation Area and Burnaby Lake Regional Park. Both offer extensive networks of trails and magnificent viewpoints.
Burnaby Mountain is Metro Vancouver’s highest point south of the Burrard Inlet. It is a lure for nature lovers, hikers, and mountain bikers who want to escape the city only a few short minutes after parking their car. They are rewarded with expansive views of Vancouver Island and up the Indian Arm to the Coast Mountains.
Burnaby Mountain Park, just below the summit, is a playground of the gods. That’s the name of the collection of wooden totems presented to the city by Japanese sculptors Nuburi and Shusei Toko to commemorate Burnaby’s friendship with the Japanese city of Kobi. The park also features a rose garden and the renowned Horizons restaurant.
Burnaby Lake Regional Park surrounds a large urban lake that is a habitat for eagles, herons, ducks, beavers and turtles. It’s also a competitive rowing basin and recreational hub with numerous sports fields, two ice arena, an indoor swimming pool, tennis courts and even an archery range at its western end.
While there is some commercial retail along Winston Street, the neighbourhood is close to the booming Lougheed Town Centre area, which has a 125-store mall and numerous shops and services along North Road.
Schools
- Seaforth Elementary School (French Immersion K-7)
- Burnaby Mountain Secondary (8-12)
- Simon Fraser University (Post Secondary)
Transit
Two SkyTrain stations, Sperling-Burnaby Lake and Lake City Way, connect the Government Road neighbourhood to Vancouver and other communities along the commuter line. The neighbourhood is also handy to Highway 1 and the Lougheed Highway.
Government Road real estate
Government Road offers a diverse portfolio of real estate. There’s a mix of older and new condos, townhouses and single-family detached homes. Some of those homes are large custom-built houses on oversized lots.
