About Oaklands
Tucked into the southern slopes of Burnaby, Oaklands is a quiet, established residential pocket known for its tree-lined streets, mature landscaping, and easy access to one of Metro Vancouver's busiest urban hubs. Oaklands real estate is characterized by a mix of well-kept single-family homes on generous lots, alongside newer infill builds and the occasional duplex, giving the neighbourhood a blend of old-Burnaby character and modern updates. With current Oaklands MLS listings showing recent sold prices averaging around $1,307,500 and a price per square foot near $691, the area continues to attract buyers looking for value relative to nearby Metrotown and South Slope.
Lifestyle in Oaklands is centred on convenience and quiet residential living. Residents are just minutes from Metropolis at Metrotown, Crystal Mall, and Central Park, offering shopping, dining, and abundant green space with walking trails, tennis courts, and a pitch-and-putt course. Daily errands, groceries, and a wide range of restaurants are all within a short drive, while Kingsway provides a steady mix of local shops and services along the southern edge of the neighbourhood.
Transit and commuter access are major draws for Oaklands homes for sale. The Metrotown SkyTrain station is nearby, connecting residents to downtown Vancouver in under 30 minutes, and several frequent bus routes serve the area. Drivers benefit from quick access to Highway 1, Boundary Road, and major arterials heading into Vancouver, New Westminster, and the Tri-Cities. Families appreciate the proximity to public and independent schools in the surrounding South Burnaby catchments, along with parks, community centres, and recreation facilities within easy reach.
