Discover Renfrew VE (Vancouver East)

An interesting aspect of this East Vancouver neighbourhood is how much of the neighbourhood is filled with single-family homes. If you’re seeking a home with a yard, this might be the perfect place for you.

Family in Renfrew VE

Family is an undeniably important factor when choosing a place to live. Services, schools and space can all impact the growth and life of a family. Renfrew’s single-family homes certainly tick the box for space, but what about schools and services? Well, there’s a decent saturation of schools within the neighbourhood in both Vancouver School Board public schools and independent private schools too. There’s elementary schools like Sir Matthew Begbie Elementary School, and secondary schools like Notre Dame Regional Secondary School. The final box is services. Renfrew has this covered. There’s the centrally-located T&T Supermarket for example. There are also community centres, doctor’s offices, dentist offices and community organizations dotted throughout the neighbourhood as well.
