Our Verdict

"Final Boss"

At a median of C$54/m², you aren't paying for a trend; you're paying for the FINAL_BOSS status of Vancouver real estate where rentals are effectively unicorns. Our neighborhood analysis confirms supply is so thin that any available basement suite or coach house can easily command C$72/m² from tenants desperate for the prestige. Unless you need to be within a three-minute drive of York House School, the investment outlook for renters is poor given the total lack of basic neighborhood density and services.

The Vibe:Shaughnessy is a fortress of massive heritage estates and winding, hedge-lined streets that feel miles away from the downtown noise despite being ten minutes out. You won't find modern glass towers here, just silent crescents where the 17 bus occasionally passes the gated entrances near VanDusen Botanical Garden. It’s an enclave for those who prioritize extreme privacy and massive square footage over being within walking distance of a local pub.

The median rent price in Shaughnessy, Vancouver is C$54 per m² per month, 12% above the Vancouver city average of C$48.35/m². Based on 1 verified rental data points as of June 2026.

Locals Ask

Why are there so few rentals in Shaughnessy?

Most properties are massive single-family heritage mansions, and strict zoning bylaws have historically choked out any high-density apartment developments.

Is public transit actually viable here?

It’s a car-first zone, though you can catch the R4 RapidBus on 41st or the 17 on Oak Street if you're willing to hike to the neighborhood's edge.

What do the m² stats look like for a coach house?

Expect to pay at the top of the C$42.5 - C$72/m² range, as these smaller, modern detached units are the most sought-after rental stock in the area.

Is the average rent inclusive of utilities?

Almost never; heating a drafty 5,000-square-foot heritage home is expensive, and landlords typically expect you to cover the massive BC Hydro bills.

Is it easy to find street parking for guests?

Parking is abundant but heavily restricted by permit zones, and residents are notorious for calling bylaws the second an unknown car lingers too long.
