# Glenwood, Port Coquitlam > Glenwood, Port Coquitlam guide: where it is, its detached homes, townhouses and condos, SD43 schools, the Coquitlam River trail, transit and GVR benchmark prices. **Source:** https://soldbycraig.ca/glenwood-port-coquitlam-guide/ **Author:** Craig Johnston, REALTOR® (BC Licence V99960) · Royal LePage Elite West **Site:** https://soldbycraig.ca --- Glenwood · Port Coquitlam # Glenwood, Port Coquitlam — central PoCo between the river and Coast Meridian, explained straight. Glenwood is the established neighbourhood just north of Lougheed Highway in central Port Coquitlam, running from the Coquitlam River across to Coast Meridian Road. It is one of the few PoCo pockets where Greater Vancouver REALTORS® reports all three home types — detached houses, townhouse complexes and low-rise condos — so it works for a first condo, a first townhouse and a family house without changing neighbourhoods. This guide covers where it is, what the housing actually is, schools, the Traboulay PoCo Trail on its western edge, getting to SkyTrain and the West Coast Express, and what the September 2026 numbers say.

Greater Vancouver REALTORS® (GVR) publishes a separate Glenwood benchmark for detached homes, townhouses and apartments in its monthly REALTOR® Report. A benchmark is the modelled price of a *typical* home of that type in that area — not an average of what sold. Glenwood is small, so each figure rests on a handful of sales and can move noticeably from one month to the next. Read them alongside the citywide Port Coquitlam numbers, which are steadier. Glenwood detached benchmark $1,209,100 September 2026 · −6.1% year over year · 1 sale, 43 active listings. Glenwood townhouse benchmark $818,900 September 2026 · −5.7% year over year · 3 sales, 9 active listings. Glenwood apartment benchmark $487,800 September 2026 · −4.0% year over year · 4 sales, 31 active listings. Port Coquitlam detached (citywide) $1,240,600 September 2026 GVR benchmark · −8.5% year over year. Port Coquitlam townhouse $834,300, Port Coquitlam apartment $550,000.

Glenwood’s detached benchmark sat $31,500 below the citywide figure, its townhouse benchmark $15,400 below and its apartment benchmark $62,200 below. The next report covers October 2026.

Most people who live in Port Coquitlam know Glenwood by feel rather than by its lines. It’s the central block of the city that sits north of the highway — close enough to downtown to drive there in a few minutes, but on the residential side of Lougheed. **The edges.** Glenwood is generally described as the area **north of Lougheed Highway**, with the **Coquitlam River** on its west side and **Coast Meridian Road** on its east side. Shaughnessy Street runs north–south through the middle of it. Neighbourhood names are a real estate and GVR convention rather than a City of Port Coquitlam boundary, so two websites can draw the northern edge slightly differently. If a listing says “Glenwood PQ”, that’s the GVR sub-area the listing REALTOR® filed it under. **The streets you’ll see.** Listings filed as Glenwood PQ come from streets such as Prairie Avenue, Coquitlam Avenue, Westminster Avenue, Fraser Avenue and Shaughnessy Street itself. The Shaughnessy Park townhouse complex at 3655 Shaughnessy Street — where I [listed a three-bedroom townhouse in September 2026](/blog/102e-3655-shaughnessy-street-port-coquitlam-townhouse-glenwood/) — sits right against the Coquitlam River corridor on the west side of the neighbourhood. **What’s around it.** Downtown Port Coquitlam, Leigh Square and the Shaughnessy Street shops are just south across Lougheed. The Canadian Pacific rail yard lies south of the highway as well; the **Coast Meridian Overpass**, opened in 2010, carries traffic over the yard from Coast Meridian Road and Lougheed Highway on the north side to Kingsway Avenue and Broadway Street on the south side. Oxford Heights and the newer Burke Mountain streets are further north and north-east. **Why the location matters.** Glenwood’s appeal is mostly about being in the middle of things. From Shaughnessy Park, downtown PoCo and Leigh Square are about a six-minute drive, Coquitlam Centre about ten, and the Coquitlam River section of the Traboulay PoCo Trail is beside the complex (Google Maps estimates, September 2026). That central position is the reason people buy here instead of further up the hill. The housing stock ## What you’re actually buying in Glenwood. Glenwood is an established neighbourhood, not a new subdivision. That cuts both ways: mature trees, finished streets and real yards, but also older buildings that need a proper inspection and, for stratas, a careful read of the documents. **Detached houses.** Most of the land is single-family streets of older detached homes on established, mostly flat lots, with mature trees along many of the blocks. Some houses have secondary suites. A suite can be a real help with the mortgage, but whether it’s a permitted suite is something to confirm with the City, not assume from the listing. In September 2026 GVR counted 43 active detached listings in Glenwood and 1 detached sale. **Townhouse complexes.** Glenwood has a layer of established townhouse communities. Shaughnessy Park, for example, is a 32-home complex built in 1982, with two-storey homes, single garages and landscaped common grounds. Complexes of that age can be excellent value, but the price of a townhouse is only half the story — the depreciation report, the contingency reserve fund and the roof, window and envelope history matter just as much. GVR counted 9 active townhouse listings in September 2026, so supply at any one time is thin. **Low-rise condos.** The apartment supply is mostly low-rise buildings, including some close to Lougheed Highway and Shaughnessy Street. Glenwood’s apartment benchmark sat $62,200 below the citywide Port Coquitlam figure in September 2026, which makes it one of the more accessible places in the Tri-Cities to buy a first home. There were 31 active apartment listings that month. **Room to add a unit.** Port Coquitlam now allows a detached laneway home of up to 90 m² (968 sq ft) on most RS-zoned single-family lots, under rules the City publishes on its accessory dwelling units page. If you’re buying a Glenwood house partly for that option, check the zoning, the lot, lane access and the City’s servicing requirements before you write the offer. My [multiplex, suite and laneway rules guide](/multiplex-and-suite-rules-tri-cities/) walks through the rules and the costs. The price ladder ## What each home type in Glenwood costs. Glenwood’s three benchmarks set beside the citywide Port Coquitlam figures for September 2026. The neighbourhood numbers are the more specific read; the city numbers are the steadier one. Neither replaces the recent comparable sales for the specific home you’re looking at. | Home type | Glenwood benchmark (September 2026) | Port Coquitlam citywide | Glenwood sales · active | |---|---|---|---| | Detached | $1,209,100 (−6.1% YoY) | $1,240,600 (−8.5% YoY) | 1 · 43 | | Townhouse | $818,900 (−5.7% YoY) | $834,300 (−7.8% YoY) | 3 · 9 | | Apartment | $487,800 (−4.0% YoY) | $550,000 (−9.0% YoY) | 4 · 31 | How to read this: with 1 detached sale against 43 listings, GVR’s ratio puts Glenwood detached in a buyer's market this month. With 3 townhouse sales against 9 listings, townhouses read as a seller's market, and apartments as a balanced market. On samples this small, one or two sales flip the label — treat it as a direction, not a verdict. The full monthly picture is in my [Port Coquitlam market report](/port-coquitlam-market-report/); live inventory is on [Port Coquitlam homes for sale](/port-coquitlam-homes-for-sale/) and [Port Coquitlam townhomes](/port-coquitlam-townhomes/). Who Glenwood is for ## Four buyers Glenwood fits well. Glenwood’s trade is location and range over newness and views. Because it has condos, townhouses and houses within a few blocks of each other, it suits people at very different stages — and it’s one of the few places where a family can move up twice without changing neighbourhoods. 01 ### The first-time condo buyer Glenwood’s apartment benchmark was $487,800 in September 2026, below the Port Coquitlam figure of $550,000. For a buyer who wants to own rather than rent and can live with an older low-rise building, that gap is the point. 02 ### The condo-to-townhouse family The classic first move up: out of a two-bedroom condo and into a home with stairs, a garage and a patch of yard. Glenwood’s established townhouse complexes are where that move often happens — with the caveat that supply is thin and the strata documents need a careful read. 03 ### The central detached buyer A buyer who wants a detached house with a yard on flat, established streets, a few minutes from downtown PoCo and Lougheed Highway, and who would rather spend on the house than on newer construction further up the hill. Some will look for a suite or laneway-home potential. 04 ### The river-trail regular Runners, dog owners and cyclists who want the Traboulay PoCo Trail at the end of the street. The trail follows the Coquitlam River along Glenwood’s western edge and connects into the full loop around the city. Daily life ## Four things that shape life in Glenwood. Day to day, Glenwood is a car-and-trail neighbourhood: the river on one side, the city’s main shopping street a short drive south, and the highway at the bottom of the hill for everything else. 01 · The river edge ### Coquitlam River & the Traboulay PoCo Trail. The Traboulay PoCo Trail is a 25-kilometre loop around Port Coquitlam on gravel and paved paths, and its Coquitlam River section runs along Glenwood’s western side. Coquitlam River Park is about 700 metres along the trail from Shaughnessy Park — roughly a nine-minute walk. 02 · Errands ### Shaughnessy Street, south of the highway. The everyday run points south along Shaughnessy Street. Shaughnessy Station shopping centre (2850 Shaughnessy Street) has Shoppers Drug Mart, banking and restaurants, with a Safeway beside it, at the edge of downtown PoCo. Coquitlam Centre is about a ten-minute drive west. 03 · Recreation ### Parks, pools and fields nearby. McLean Park sits inside the neighbourhood off Fraser Avenue. For bigger facilities, the Port Coquitlam Community Centre (2150 Wilson Avenue) is downtown, Hyde Creek Recreation Centre is about a six-minute drive from Shaughnessy Park, and Gates Park (2300 Reeve Street) is the city’s main field-and-diamond park south of downtown. 04 · Noise & edges ### Know which block you’re on. Glenwood’s southern edge is Lougheed Highway, and the CP rail yard lies just south of it. Homes on the quieter interior and river-side streets live very differently from those on the arterials. Visit a short-listed home at rush hour and again in the evening before you commit. Getting around ## Commuting from Glenwood. Glenwood has no SkyTrain station of its own — Port Coquitlam has none — but it sits on the Lougheed Highway rapid-bus corridor and within a short drive of two West Coast Express stations. ### R3 RapidBus on Lougheed TransLink’s **R3 Lougheed Hwy** RapidBus, running since January 2020, connects **Coquitlam Central Station** with **Haney Place** in Maple Ridge along Lougheed Highway, with a stop at Shaughnessy Street on Glenwood’s southern edge. Coquitlam Central is the transfer point to the Millennium Line SkyTrain. ### Local buses through the neighbourhood Route **173** (Cedar / Coquitlam Central Station) runs through and around Glenwood on Shaughnessy Street, Oxford Street, Coquitlam Avenue, Coast Meridian Road and Prairie Avenue. Check TransLink’s trip planner for current schedules — routings and frequencies change. ### West Coast Express The weekday **West Coast Express** commuter train stops at **Port Coquitlam Station** (about an eight-minute drive from Shaughnessy Park) and at **Coquitlam Central Station** (about eleven minutes), running to Waterfront Station in downtown Vancouver. ### By car Lougheed Highway is the main east–west route: west to Coquitlam, east over the Pitt River toward Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge. The **Coast Meridian Overpass** crosses the rail yard from Coast Meridian Road to Kingsway Avenue and Broadway Street, the quick way to the south side of the city. Drive times are Google Maps estimates from 3655 Shaughnessy Street, September 2026; actual times vary with traffic. Transit details: TransLink and published route records — confirm current service in TransLink’s trip planner. SD43 schools in and near Glenwood ## Schools close to Glenwood. Glenwood is in School District 43 (Coquitlam). The public schools below are in or close to the neighbourhood, but **being close is not the same as being in catchment**. SD43 assigns elementary, middle and secondary schools by street address, and in central PoCo the lines can split a neighbourhood street by street — so look up the exact address before you rely on any school.

The Port Coquitlam pockets buyers most often weigh against Glenwood. Every figure is GVR’s September 2026 neighbourhood benchmark; where GVR doesn’t publish one for that home type and area, the cell shows “—”. All four rest on small monthly samples. | Factor | Glenwood | Oxford Heights | Central Port Coquitlam | Citadel | |---|---|---|---|---| | Setting | Central, north of Lougheed, river on the west edge | Quiet north-side family pocket off Coast Meridian | Downtown core around Shaughnessy Street and Leigh Square | Hillside family streets above the Fraser River | | Detached benchmark | $1,209,100 | $1,214,900 | — | $1,360,000 | | Townhouse benchmark | $818,900 | $850,300 | $701,300 | $870,900 | | Apartment benchmark | $487,800 | — | $562,800 | — | | Best for | Buyers who want all three home types, the river trail and a central location | Detached buyers wanting a quieter north-side street | Walk-to-everything condo and townhouse buyers, West Coast Express riders | Families wanting larger detached homes on a hill | The honest read: Glenwood and Oxford Heights landed within a few thousand dollars of each other on detached benchmarks this month, while Citadel sat higher. Central Port Coquitlam’s townhouse benchmark was lower than Glenwood’s, but its condo benchmark was higher. Monthly samples are small in every one of these pockets, so the ranking can shuffle from month to month. Compare the neighbours directly: [Oxford Heights guide](/oxford-heights-port-coquitlam-guide/) · [Downtown Port Coquitlam guide](/downtown-port-coquitlam-guide/) · [Citadel guide](/citadel-port-coquitlam-guide/) · or the whole city on the [Port Coquitlam guide](/port-coquitlam/). Decision framework ## Is Glenwood the right fit? Reading these two columns honestly saves time. Glenwood is a practical neighbourhood — it rewards people who value location and range more than polish. ### Glenwood is a strong fit if you’re… - A first-time buyer looking for an entry-level condo in the Tri-Cities. - A condo owner ready for a townhouse with a garage and a bit of yard. - A detached buyer who wants flat, established streets close to downtown PoCo and Lougheed Highway. - Someone who will actually use the Coquitlam River trail every week. ### Glenwood may be less ideal if you want… - New construction — most Glenwood housing is decades old; [Burke Mountain](/burke-mountain/) is where the newer stock is. - A SkyTrain station on foot — Port Coquitlam has none; the R3 or a short drive gets you to Coquitlam Central. - A view lot — Glenwood is largely flat; look at hillside areas such as [Citadel](/citadel-port-coquitlam-guide/). - Total quiet on every block — homes along Lougheed and the busier arterials carry traffic noise. The playbook ## How to buy or sell in Glenwood. Glenwood has three markets in one neighbourhood, and in September 2026 they were behaving differently. The strategy follows the home type, not the postal code. ### Buying in Glenwood - **Price from the sales, not the benchmark.** With so few Glenwood sales each month, the benchmark tells you the direction; the three to six most comparable recent sales tell you the number. I pull those for every home a client is serious about. - **Detached: use the inventory.** 43 active detached listings against 1 sale is a lot of choice. That usually means room for conditions — financing, inspection, and time to check suite status and laneway-home potential with the City. - **Townhouses: be ready.** With only 9 townhouses listed, the good ones don’t sit. Have your pre-approval done and know which complexes you’d accept before one comes up. A daily MLS® alert filtered to Glenwood townhouses is the simplest way not to miss one — I set those up for clients. - **Read the strata documents like an owner.** For 1980s complexes and older low-rises, ask for two years of minutes, the depreciation report, the contingency reserve fund balance and any special levies passed or proposed. My [strata special-levy guide](/blog/strata-special-levy-coquitlam-buyer-guide-2026/) explains what to look for. - **Check the block and the school.** Visit at rush hour if the home is near Lougheed or an arterial, and run the address through the SD43 locator before you write the offer. ### Selling in Glenwood - **Price for the market your home is actually in.** A Glenwood detached house is competing with dozens of listings; a well-kept townhouse may be competing with almost none. The same list-price strategy doesn’t work for both. I price from accurate comparable sales and show you the comparables. - **Sell the location.** Buyers looking here are buying the river trail, the central position and the range of schools nearby — say so clearly in the listing, with honest distances. - **Have the paperwork ready.** For a strata home, the documents a buyer’s lender and lawyer will want should be ordered before you list. For a house with a suite, know its permit history. - **Moving up within PoCo?** If you’re selling a Glenwood condo or townhouse to buy a house, the timing of the two sales is the real work. Start with a [Port Coquitlam home value estimate](/whats-my-home-worth-in-port-coquitlam/) or a 20-minute [Equity Map call](/home-evaluation/) so you know both sides of the math. Who’s writing this ## Why 47+ years in the Tri-Cities matters in Glenwood. I don’t live in Glenwood, and I won’t pretend to. I’ve lived in the Tri-Cities for more than 47 years, and most of my clients are families moving up — often from a condo to a townhouse, or a townhouse to a house — which is exactly the ladder Glenwood offers. What I bring is the read on the specific home: how it compares with the recent sales around it, what the strata documents are really saying, and how to time a sale and a purchase so you’re not carrying two homes. I respond the same day, and after a 20-minute strategy call you get a written one-page plan within 24 hours.

FAQ ## Glenwood — the questions buyers and sellers actually ask. **Where exactly is Glenwood in Port Coquitlam?** Glenwood is in central Port Coquitlam, generally described as the area north of Lougheed Highway between the Coquitlam River on the west and Coast Meridian Road on the east, with Shaughnessy Street running through the middle. Downtown Port Coquitlam is just south across Lougheed. “Glenwood PQ” is a Greater Vancouver REALTORS® sub-area name rather than an official City boundary, so always confirm how a specific listing has been classified. **What does a typical home cost in Glenwood?** Greater Vancouver REALTORS® benchmarks for Glenwood in September 2026 were: detached $1,209,100, townhouse $818,900 and apartment $487,800. A benchmark is a typical home, not an average sale, and Glenwood’s figures rest on very few sales each month, so the price of a specific home comes from its recent comparable sales. **Are there townhouses and condos in Glenwood, or just houses?** All three. Glenwood has older detached homes, established townhouse complexes such as Shaughnessy Park (32 homes, built in 1982) and low-rise condo buildings. In September 2026 GVR counted active listings in the neighbourhood of: detached 43, townhouse 9 and apartment 31. **Which schools serve Glenwood addresses?** Glenwood is in School District 43 (Coquitlam). James Park Elementary on Westminster Avenue is in the Glenwood area, and École Kwayhquitlum Middle (3280 Flint Street) and École Coquitlam River Elementary (4250 Shaughnessy Street) are nearby. SD43 sets catchments by street address and lines can split a neighbourhood street by street, so check any address in the SD43 School Locator before relying on a school. **How do you get from Glenwood to SkyTrain or the West Coast Express?** Port Coquitlam has no SkyTrain station. The R3 Lougheed Hwy RapidBus stops at Shaughnessy Street on Glenwood’s southern edge and runs to Coquitlam Central Station, where the Millennium Line and the West Coast Express stop. By car, Port Coquitlam’s West Coast Express station is about eight minutes from Shaughnessy Park and Coquitlam Central about eleven, according to Google Maps. **Is Glenwood close to the Traboulay PoCo Trail?** Yes. The Coquitlam River section of the 25-kilometre Traboulay PoCo Trail runs along Glenwood’s western edge, and Coquitlam River Park is about 700 metres along the trail from Shaughnessy Park at 3655 Shaughnessy Street — roughly a nine-minute walk. **Is Glenwood a buyer’s or seller’s market right now?** It depends on the home type. In September 2026, GVR’s sales-to-active ratios put Glenwood detached homes in a buyer's market, townhouses in a seller's market and apartments in a balanced market. These are based on a handful of sales, so one or two transactions can change the reading the following month. **Can I build a laneway home on a Glenwood lot?** Possibly. Port Coquitlam now allows a detached laneway home of up to 90 square metres (968 sq ft) on most RS-zoned single-family lots, subject to the City’s setbacks, permit process and servicing requirements. Whether a particular Glenwood lot qualifies depends on its zoning, size and access, so confirm with the City before you buy for that reason. Ready when you are ## Buying or selling in Glenwood? Whether it’s a first condo near Lougheed, a townhouse by the river trail, or selling a Glenwood home to move up, the next step is the same: a 20-minute call, a written one-page plan within 24 hours, and pricing built from real comparable sales.
