haughnessy is one of Vancouver’s most prestigious neighbourhoods and is where some of the wealthiest Vancouverites call home. The Crown Jewel of Vancouver extends from W 41st Ave to W 16th Ave and runs between Arbutus St and Oak St. Named for Thomas Shaughnessy, former president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, the neighbourhood features spectacularly designed estates, many with historical designations.
Neighbourhood amenities
While mostly residential, Shaughnessy is bordered by Arbutus Village mall, Granville Street’s designer boutiques and Kerrisdale’s markets and cafés. Oak and King Edward St also features an outlet mall with a supermarket, various restaurants, cafes and Dragon Ball Tea House—a neighbourhood favourite.
There are plenty of community centres and larger parks in the surrounding neighbourhoods, with easy access for Shaughnessy residents, as well as Angus Park, donated to the city by the CPR, and the Kerrisdale Running Track. It is also home to VanDusen Botanical Garden and the Bloedel Conservatory, which hosts the annual Festival of Lights.
Canuck Place, a hospice for children with life-threatening illnesses, can be found housed in one of Vancouver’s most elaborate mansions.

The Quarry House - a RARE chance in coveted First Shaughnessy. This prominent 11,560sf corner lot offers an opportunity that likely will never be repeated: to carry forward approvals for a brand-new contemporary masterpiece by Measured Architecture, Paul Sangha and Powers Construction. This elite team has spent almost two years thoughtfully designing this nearly 6,000sf family residence for modern living, open flow and extended gatherings. The next owner can step in now, save 2 years of planning, and enjoy a scale and design that would not be approved today. Act quick, as once the current permits expire this one of a kind path to building a contemporary interpretation of historic Shaughnessy character is gone. This is the definition of a legacy property in Vancouver's most storied enclave More detailsListed by RE/MAX Select Properties
