New Westminster Homes for Sale
Explore current New Westminster MLS® listings below, including detached homes, townhouses, condos, character homes, newer homes, and investment properties.
New Westminster offers a wide range of housing options:
- Detached family homes in Queens Park, Glenbrooke North, The Heights, Sapperton, West End, and Connaught Heights
- Townhouses and duplex-style homes in family-friendly neighbourhoods
- Concrete and wood-frame condos in Downtown New Westminster, the Quay, Fraserview, Victoria Hill, and Uptown
- Newer homes and homes with suites in Queensborough
- Transit-oriented properties close to SkyTrain, shopping, restaurants, parks, schools, and the Fraser River waterfront
Every neighbourhood in New Westminster has its own market, buyer pool, pricing trends, and long-term value drivers. That is why local knowledge matters.
Buying in New Westminster
New Westminster continues to attract buyers who want central access, strong transit connections, walkable neighbourhoods, historic character, and relative value compared to Vancouver, Burnaby, and parts of the North Shore.
Buyers are often drawn to New Westminster for:
- SkyTrain access to Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, and Coquitlam
- Walkable neighbourhoods and local shops
- Character homes and established residential streets
- Waterfront living along the Quay
- Family-friendly parks, schools, and community amenities
- A strong mix of condos, townhouses, and detached homes
- More relative affordability compared to many surrounding cities
Whether you are a first-time buyer, upsizing into a family home, downsizing into a condo, or looking for a property with suite potential, we can help you compare neighbourhoods, understand value, and make a confident decision.
Selling a Home in New Westminster
Selling in New Westminster requires more than simply looking at city-wide averages. A house in Glenbrooke North will not sell the same way as a home in Queensborough. A condo in Downtown New Westminster will have different competition than a view condo in Fraserview or a waterfront home at the Quay.
When we help clients sell in New Westminster, we focus on:
- Neighbourhood-specific pricing strategy
- Recent comparable sales and active competition
- Professional photography, video, floor plans, and digital marketing
- Buyer feedback and showing activity
- Presentation, preparation, and staging advice
- Offer strategy and negotiation
- Clear communication from listing to completion
New Westminster is a neighbourhood-specific market. A condo at the Quay, a character home in Queen’s Park, a family house in Glenbrooke North, and a newer home in Queensborough can all perform very differently.
If you’re thinking of selling, pricing, presentation, timing, and understanding your current competition matter more than ever.

Top 3 single-family home neighbourhoods in NEW WESTMINSTER: A LOCAL REALTOR’S GUIDE By James Garbutt
THE HEIGHTS
Discover the charm of The Heights in New Westminster, a picturesque neighbourhood known for its mid-century allure and spacious, landscaped lots. With many homes dating back to the 1950s, this area offers stunning views of Mount Baker, the Fraser River, and the Port Mann Bridge, thanks to its gently sloped streets that capture the sunlight beautifully. The lots, often exceeding 6,000 sqft with wide frontages, contribute to a serene, low-density environment filled with greenery and mid-century modern homes with simple yet captivating curb appeal.
Rooted in history, The Heights was initially developed for returning veterans, creating a community with a strong sense of belonging and pride. Today, it remains a family-friendly oasis within the city, celebrating its heritage with annual community events like garage sales and block parties. The neighbourhood’s architecture, a mix of historic and modern styles set against a backdrop of landmark streetlights, underscores its unique character and commitment to preserving its mid-century modern essence. A true gem in New Westminster, The Heights offers a peaceful yet vibrant living experience for those who value heritage and community.
QUEENS PARK
Queens Park in New Westminster could be the haven you’re seeking, with its rich tapestry of history and modern conveniences blending seamlessly. This prestigious neighbourhood, one of the oldest in New Westminster, is renowned for its beautifully preserved heritage homes and lush, tree-lined streets. Imagine strolling down avenues lined with cherry blossoms or historic homes from the late 1800s and early 1900s, each telling a story of a bygone era. The area adheres to the Queens Park Heritage Design Guidelines, ensuring that any new development honours the neighbourhood’s storied past and offers a unique charm hard to find elsewhere.
Living in Queens Park means having the best of both worlds: the tranquillity of a residential neighbourhood and the vibrancy of urban living just minutes away. The community is nestled next to Queen’s Park, offering families and outdoor enthusiasts a plethora of activities right at their doorstep, including playgrounds, sports fields, and picturesque walking trails. With highly regarded schools like Herbert Spencer Elementary nearby, it caters to educational needs within a nurturing environment. Plus, the convenience of being a short walk from the Columbia SkyTrain Station makes effortless commutes to Downtown Vancouver and beyond. If you’re envisioning a life where historic charm meets modern living, Queens Park might just be the perfect setting for your new home.
West END
The West End in New Westminster is a picturesque neighbourhood appreciated for its heritage charm and beautiful vistas overlooking the Fraser River. It’s characterized by its sloping landscapes, where a mix of well-maintained single-family homes dominate, offering sunny and serene living spaces. Increasingly, the area is shifting towards more diverse housing options, including condos and the anticipated arrival of townhouses to meet the growing need for family-oriented middle housing. This shift aims to enrich the community’s residential fabric by introducing a wider range of living options.
Strategically located for ease of access to both the city’s Uptown and Downtown areas, convenient amenities surround the West End and is well-connected by transit, including proximity to two SkyTrain stations. This ensures residents enjoy both the tranquillity of a residential area and the vibrancy of urban life. Parks like Grimston and Moody offer extensive recreational options, enhancing the neighbourhood’s appeal for active and family-focused residents. The real estate landscape is evolving, with a trend towards diversification, yet it remains anchored by its character homes and the promise of expanding its welcoming community.
most affordable single-family home neighbourhood
Sapperton
Sapperton tops the list as one of the most affordable neighbourhoods in New Westminster. This area combines historical charm with modern convenience, largely due to its smaller average lot and home sizes, which create higher density and affordability. Named after the Royal Engineers, “The Sappers,” who played a pivotal role in the city’s early development, Sapperton has grown into a vibrant community.
Residents of Sapperton enjoy proximity to Hume Park, which features a water park, playground, and outdoor pool, making it ideal for families. Two SkyTrain stations, Sapperton and Braid, enhance the neighbourhood’s accessibility, ensuring seamless connectivity. Furthermore, the presence of the Royal Columbian Hospital underscores Sapperton’s importance within the region.
Real estate in Sapperton is characterized by a mix of single-family homes and condos, with townhouses present but in lower supply. The ongoing redevelopment around the Royal Columbian Hospital and the emergence of the Brewery District has infused new energy into the neighbourhood, promising a blend of residential, commercial, and healthcare developments.
Condos for Sale in New Westminster
New Westminster has one of the most diverse condo markets in Greater Vancouver, with options ranging from waterfront concrete towers and heritage loft conversions to newer high-rises near SkyTrain and quieter master-planned communities.
Buyers looking at condos for sale in New Westminster are often drawn to the city for its walkability, transit access, Fraser River views, character buildings, and relative value compared to Vancouver, Burnaby, and parts of the North Shore.
Some of the most recognizable condo buildings and developments in New Westminster include Murano Lofts, The Q, RiverSky by Bosa, Quantum, Trapp + Holbrook, C2C Lofts, Ovation, 618 Carnarvon, Pier West by Bosa, Parkside at Victoria Hill, The Peninsula in Port Royal, and The Brewery District in Sapperton.
Each area offers a different lifestyle. The Quay is popular for waterfront living and river views. Downtown New Westminster is ideal for buyers who want SkyTrain access, restaurants, shopping, and an urban lifestyle. Victoria Hill and Fraserview offer green space, views, and a quieter residential feel. Sapperton is known for the Brewery District, Royal Columbian Hospital, and excellent transit access. Queensborough offers newer riverfront communities and larger floor plans.
When comparing New Westminster condos, it is important to look beyond the asking price. Building age, construction type, strata fees, contingency reserve fund, depreciation report, upcoming repairs, parking, storage, view, exposure, floor level, and recent sales in the building can all have a major impact on value.
If you are thinking about buying or selling a condo in New Westminster, James Garbutt and Denny Dumas can help you compare buildings, review recent sales, and understand which properties offer the best fit for your goals.
