Upper Eagle Ridge is the higher-elevation part of Eagle Ridge in north Coquitlam — quiet, tree-lined winding streets and circular courts that climb toward Westwood Plateau, lined with larger detached homes that often carry mountain and City-Centre views. It’s a genuine step up in size and price from lower Eagle Ridge, with all three neighbourhood schools walkable and the Coquitlam Crunch at the doorstep. This is the complete guide: homes, schools, parks, sports, shopping, and the honest fit story. Built by Craig Johnston, REALTOR® (BCFSA Licence #187645) — a 47+ year Tri-Cities resident.

Open the Coquitlam mapGVR does publish an Upper Eagle Ridge sub-area benchmark, but it rests on very few sales each month, so the steadier reference point is the citywide Coquitlam detached number, clearly labelled as such. What makes Upper Eagle Ridge distinct isn’t a headline stat; it’s the step up: larger, view-oriented detached homes on quiet hillside streets, a tier above lower Eagle Ridge. Here’s the current pulse.
The Upper Eagle Ridge stock — predominantly larger detached, view-oriented.
The upper-pocket premium — a tier above the entry point.

GVR’s REALTOR® Report also publishes Upper Eagle Ridge benchmarks — detached $1,519,300 (−11.5% YoY, $65,100 below the city; 0 detached sales, 3 active listings) and townhouse $743,300 (2 sales). Samples that small make the citywide figure the steadier reference; larger view homes can trade well above either benchmark.

Book a strategy callWhat’s my home worth?Neighbourhood outlines are the City of Coquitlam’s 13 community profile areas (City open data, retrieved October 25, 2026); the names buyers and MLS® listings use don’t always follow these lines, so each outline links to my guides for the streets inside it. Developments outside Burke Mountain are pinned from each project’s civic address with the BC Address Geocoder; Goldfinch, Stirling Block, Burquitlam Park District, Ironwood, Sundays on Grant and Dwell are placed at block level, and Coronation Heights and the two Fraser Mills buildings at street level from OpenStreetMap. Statuses come from each developer’s own website, checked October 25, 2026: “Selling now” means the developer lists homes for sale, including completed buildings with homes left. Home counts are shown only where the developer publishes them. Rental-only buildings aren’t shown, and projects I couldn’t verify on the developer’s own site are left off rather than guessed. Burke Mountain’s developments are on their own map. Prices are MLS® HPI benchmark prices from the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® REALTOR® Report for the latest month on file, updated with my monthly stats run; price pins mark approximate GVR neighbourhood centres, because GVR doesn’t publish neighbourhood boundaries. Address lookups use the Province of B.C.’s geocoder, distances are straight-line, and the nearest school isn’t always the catchment school. School locations come from the Province of B.C.’s K–12 school file (July 2026 update); Coast Salish Elementary and the Burke Mountain Middle-Secondary site are placed with the BC Address Geocoder. SD43 doesn’t publish catchment boundaries as a map, so they aren’t drawn: always confirm a catchment with the SD43 School Locator. Groceries and shops are placed from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL) and the BC Address Geocoder; community centres, libraries and City Hall from City open data. SkyTrain, West Coast Express and bus routes come from TransLink’s GTFS schedule (feed valid to January 3, 2027); trip counts are scheduled weekday trips for Wednesday, October 28, 2026. Route and arrival data used in this product or service is provided by permission of TransLink. The land-use and creek layers load live from the City of Coquitlam’s open-data map service. A land-use designation shows what the Official Community Plan allows, not what’s built or approved; rezoning decides each site. The City says its watercourse mapping may not show every watercourse exactly, and streamside setbacks are confirmed site by site: check the City’s Watercourse Setbacks map before relying on any lot. Parks, dog off-leash areas, spray parks and walking routes come from City open data (October 25, 2026). Daycares are licensed facilities from the Province of B.C.’s Child Care Map data (Open Government Licence – British Columbia), updated October 25, 2026; check the BC Child Care Map for spaces and fees.
Upper Eagle Ridge isn’t a try-everything neighbourhood. It’s a specific product — the larger-detached, view-oriented, walkable-schools upper pocket of Eagle Ridge. If your situation matches one of these four, the rest of this page is the playbook. If it doesn’t, that’s useful information too — Burke Mountain, Westwood Plateau, or lower Eagle Ridge may fit you better.
Wanting a larger, view-oriented detached home on a quiet hillside street. This is Upper Eagle Ridge’s core buyer — the executive, move-up tier of Eagle Ridge rather than the entry point, where the larger 1990s-era detached stock, often with walk-out basements and mountain or City-Centre views, lives.
A family that values all three neighbourhood schools within walking distance. Eagle Ridge schools vary by address. SD43's School Locator puts 2555–2565 Runnel Drive in Eagle Ridge Elementary, Scott Creek Middle and Gleneagle Secondary, while 1090 Falcon Drive goes to Baker Drive Elementary, École Moody Middle and Port Moody Secondary. Check any address with the SD43 School Locator before you write an offer.
Who wants the Coquitlam Crunch and the Westwood Plateau trails at the doorstep. You’re literally at the base of the Crunch — the city’s signature stair-climb workout — with the hillside trail network right above and Eagle Ridge Park in the neighbourhood.
Who wants the higher, quieter pocket of Eagle Ridge over the lower entry tier. Upper Eagle Ridge sits at higher elevation on winding, tree-lined streets and circular courts — a step up in size and price, chosen for the larger homes and the outlook rather than the lowest entry price.
Upper Eagle Ridge is the part of Eagle Ridge you notice for its houses — bigger, set on quiet winding streets that climb the hillside, with views that lower Eagle Ridge doesn’t get.
Geographically, it’s the higher-elevation top of the Eagle Ridge neighbourhood: tree-lined winding streets and circular courts that rise toward the Westwood Plateau boundary. The housing here is predominantly larger detached single-family homes — a lot of it 1990s-era, frequently with walk-out basements and mountain and City-Centre views — alongside a supply of well-kept townhomes. That mix, and the size of the detached stock, is what makes it read as the executive, move-up tier of Eagle Ridge rather than the entry point.
The location does a lot of quiet work. You’re at the base of the Coquitlam Crunch — the city’s signature stair-climb workout — with the Westwood Plateau trail network right above you. Coquitlam Town Centre (Lafarge Lake, the mall, the Evergreen Line) is a short drive east, and Port Moody’s Inlet, breweries and villages are a short drive west. Check which schools serve a specific address with the SD43 School Locator; catchments vary within Eagle Ridge.
The detached mainstay is larger single-family — often with 6+ bedrooms, walk-out basements and mountain or City-Centre views. Alongside it, Upper Eagle Ridge has a supply of well-kept townhomes: a lower-maintenance entry point into the hillside for downsizers and move-up buyers who want the location and schools without the full large-detached carry. GVR’s Upper Eagle Ridge detached benchmark was $1,519,300 in September 2026 ($65,100 below the citywide Coquitlam HPI), but on very few sales — and the largest view homes can trade well above it. Buyers who only want newer construction typically look at Burke Mountain instead.
Upper Eagle Ridge is overwhelmingly larger detached, with a supply of well-kept townhomes. GVR publishes Upper Eagle Ridge detached and townhouse benchmarks, but on very few sales, so the citywide Coquitlam detached HPI remains the steadier reference — and larger view homes can trade well above the benchmarks. Below is the honest, source-supported breakdown; where a figure isn’t separately published, the cell is left as “—”.
| Home type | Price reference (September 2026) | What it typically buys | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Larger detached homes | Upper Eagle Ridge benchmark $1,519,300 (small sample) · citywide Coquitlam detached HPI $1,584,400 | The Upper Eagle Ridge mainstay — larger single-family, much of it 1990s-era, often with 6+ bedrooms, walk-out basements and mountain or City-Centre views, on quiet hillside streets. | Move-up and executive families wanting the larger, view-oriented tier of Eagle Ridge. |
| Townhomes | Upper Eagle Ridge benchmark $743,300 (small sample) | A supply of well-kept townhomes — a lower-maintenance entry point into the hillside. | Downsizers and move-up buyers who want the location and schools without the full large-detached carry. |

Upper Eagle Ridge is car-oriented for daily life, but the useful stuff is close — and its quiet advantage is the outdoors. Here are the four sides of everyday life the neighbourhood is built around, from the trails at the doorstep to the villages a short drive west.
You’re literally at the base of the Coquitlam Crunch — the city’s signature stair-and-trail workout under the power lines — with the Westwood Plateau trail network right above and Eagle Ridge Park (sports fields plus a lacrosse box) in the neighbourhood. Town Centre Park and Lafarge Lake are a short drive east.
Eagle Ridge schools vary by address. SD43's School Locator puts 2555–2565 Runnel Drive in Eagle Ridge Elementary, Scott Creek Middle and Gleneagle Secondary, while 1090 Falcon Drive goes to Baker Drive Elementary, École Moody Middle and Port Moody Secondary. Check any address with the SD43 School Locator before you write an offer. Walkability to all three is one of the pocket’s biggest draws for families. Always verify a specific street with the SD43 locator.
Runnel Drive is Eagle Ridge’s own commercial strip — the closest everyday node — with Milestones, Tim Hortons, Sushitown and Creekside Coffee Factory. Coquitlam Centre, the region’s major mall, is a short drive east for anything bigger.
Walkable dining and waterfront are minutes west, down toward the Inlet: Newport Village and Suterbrook Village, the Brewers Row craft-brewery mile, and Rocky Point Park on the Port Moody waterfront.

| Less ideal if you want | Newer-construction-only or the lowest entry price | — | — |
Upper Eagle Ridge’s GVR benchmark rests on very few sales, so the citywide Coquitlam detached HPI is the steadier reference. Keep comparing: the parent Eagle Ridge guide, Westwood Plateau, and Burke Mountain. If you’re stuck between the higher and lower parts of the hillside, the Eagle Ridge guide is where I would start.
Every neighbourhood is a trade. Upper Eagle Ridge’s trade is larger-home-and-views-and-walkable-schools over lowest-entry-price and brand-new construction. Reading these two columns honestly saves time, stress, and expensive second-guessing.
I’m not an Upper Eagle Ridge resident — and I won’t pretend to be. What I am is a 47+ year Tri-Cities local who has watched north Coquitlam’s neighbourhoods trade through cycle after cycle. I know why the upper pocket of Eagle Ridge prices above the lower streets, how the walkable Eagle Ridge → Summit → Gleneagle ladder shapes family demand, and what a larger 1990s view home is actually worth once you factor the walk-out basement and the outlook. That’s the read a fly-in agent can’t copy.

“We received seven offers, and Craig held firm on our priorities: no subject to sale and achieving our price. We took the home off the market over Christmas, but behind the scenes Craig continued working. When we re-listed in January, it sold in just three days to buyers he had been nurturing — at the price we wanted.”Jim Turnbull
“Craig worked with my wife and me for over 3 years to find the perfect home. He was endlessly patient with us through the process. Eventually, we found our perfect home and he moved fast to execute on our behalf. He negotiated fairly and thoroughly with the sellers and was our advocate all throughout our first home purchase.”David Catterall
“Craig kept me informed of the local market for a couple of years before I asked him to handle my Coquitlam sale. He laid out the strategy upfront, the listing generated a lot of interest, and we had an acceptable offer in under a month. I was stressed going in — Craig helped me overcome a lot of my anxiety. I’ve already introduced him to my sister, who plans to sell soon.”Fj Young
Quick answer
What is Upper Eagle Ridge, and who is it for?
Upper Eagle Ridge is the higher-elevation, executive sub-neighbourhood of Eagle Ridge in north Coquitlam, bordering Port Moody. Quiet, tree-lined winding streets and circular courts climb toward Westwood Plateau, lined predominantly with larger detached homes — many 1990s-era, often with walk-out basements and mountain and City-Centre views — plus well-kept townhomes. GVR’s Upper Eagle Ridge detached benchmark was $1,519,300 in September 2026 ($65,100 below the citywide Coquitlam detached HPI of $1,584,400), on very few sales; the largest view homes can trade well above it. Schools vary by address, so check yours with SD43, and the Coquitlam Crunch is at the doorstep. It suits move-up and executive families wanting a larger, view-oriented home. Written by Craig Johnston, REALTOR® (BCFSA Licence #187645) and 47+ year Tri-Cities resident.
It’s the higher, higher-elevation part of the Eagle Ridge neighbourhood in north Coquitlam, bordering Port Moody. Quiet, tree-lined winding streets and circular courts climb toward Westwood Plateau, between Coquitlam Town Centre to the east and Port Moody to the west. Coquitlam Central SkyTrain is a short drive.
Upper Eagle Ridge is an executive, large-detached pocket — a step up in size and price from lower Eagle Ridge. GVR’s Upper Eagle Ridge detached benchmark was $1,519,300 in September 2026 versus $1,240,900 for GVR’s separate Eagle Ridge sub-area and $1,584,400 citywide — but on very few sales, so treat it as indicative; the largest view homes can trade well above it. See the current citywide detached picture at /coquitlam-detached/.
Both are part of the same Eagle Ridge neighbourhood, but the upper pocket sits at higher elevation on winding, tree-lined streets and is lined predominantly with larger detached homes — many with mountain and City-Centre views and walk-out basements. That makes Upper Eagle Ridge the executive, move-up tier: a step up in size and price. Read the parent Eagle Ridge guide to see the full neighbourhood picture.
SD43 Coquitlam. Eagle Ridge schools vary by address. SD43's School Locator puts 2555–2565 Runnel Drive in Eagle Ridge Elementary, Scott Creek Middle and Gleneagle Secondary, while 1090 Falcon Drive goes to Baker Drive Elementary, École Moody Middle and Port Moody Secondary. Check any address with the SD43 School Locator before you write an offer. Walkability to all three is one of the pocket’s key selling points. Always verify the specific address with the SD43 school locator. Full district view at Coquitlam schools.
Yes — for move-up and executive families who want a larger, view-oriented detached home on a quiet hillside street, with all three neighbourhood schools walkable and the Coquitlam Crunch and Westwood Plateau trails on the doorstep. It’s less ideal if you want newer-construction-only inventory (Burke Mountain) or the lowest entry price into the area.
Coquitlam Central, Lincoln and Lafarge Lake-Douglas SkyTrain stations are each a short drive; check Google Maps for the time from a specific address. Inlet Centre Station in Port Moody is also a short drive west. Car-friendly for daily life, transit-accessible for commuting via the Evergreen Line.
