Westside South
Overview
Bungalows and split-level homes are characteristic of the Oakridge and South Cambie areas, set on 50' lots and wide pretty streets. South Granville and Marpole feature a mix of housing styles, character homes, bungalows and "monster" homes on both 33' and 50' lots. Some of the most affordable Westside housing can be found in these areas.
