What do Hobbits, a haunting and hot food have in common? Join me for part two of the 3650 Capilano Road posts, and read more about the fascinating history of this storied log home.

It was a housing crisis that led to the development of Edgemont Village. This probably sounds familiar; a housing crisis due to a lack of affordable homes for families! But this crisis occurred just after the Second World War! Unlike today’s scarcity of land for new-builds, the post-war era offered up lots of land that turned into lots for sale at less than $1000 each! On the North Shore, undeveloped land in the 1940s covered mile upon mile of dense rain forest. Since that time, some lovely residential neighbourhoods have been developed and at the centre of it, Edgemont Village. Join our writer Anne-Marie Lawrence as she takes you on a guided tour of Edgemont Village, both past and present.
