A Look Back at a Big Year on RealEstateNorthShore.com
As we look back on the past year at Rossetti Realty Ltd., one thing is very clear: buyers, sellers, and real estate enthusiasts are spending a lot of time researching the North Shore.
Over the last year, our site RealEstateNorthShore.com recorded nearly 4 million pageviews. For a locally focused real estate website, that level of traffic is significant. It speaks not only to the strength of the North Shore market, but also to how today’s buyers and sellers rely on deep, hyper-local information before making real estate decisions.
Beyond the headline number, the data also tells an interesting story about what people are most interested in. Here are some of the standout trends and highlights from the past year.
Most Popular Home Style: West Coast Modern
Among all architectural and lifestyle searches, West Coast Modern homes stood out as the most popular style on our site in both North Vancouver and West Vancouver.
West Coast Modern is a signature North Shore architectural style, defined by clean lines, open layouts, post-and-beam construction, and a strong connection to nature. Originally developed in the mid-20th century, these homes were designed to respond to the region’s forested landscapes, ocean views, and coastal climate. Today, they remain some of the most sought-after properties on the North Shore, valued for both their design integrity and their timeless livability.

Most Viewed Buildings
When it comes to concrete and wood-frame developments, two buildings consistently drew the most attention on our site:
- Grosvenor Ambleside – West Vancouver
- Apex at Seylynn Village – North Vancouver
Both are newer developments, but they appeal to different segments of the market. Grosvenor Ambleside stands out as a luxury, waterfront building in the heart of Ambleside, attracting buyers seeking premium finishes, views, and a West Vancouver lifestyle. Apex at Seylynn Village, by contrast, represents a more approachable entry into newer resale construction, offering modern homes within a growing, amenity-rich North Vancouver community.

The attention these projects received highlights how closely buyers are watching new construction opportunities, especially in established neighbourhoods with long-term appeal and limited new supply.

Most Viewed Listings
Individual listings also attracted significant attention, including two very different — but equally compelling — properties:
- 341 W 22nd Street, North Vancouver – one of our own Character home listings
- 7 Beach Drive, West Vancouver – a waterfront court-ordered sale
From a well-located North Vancouver home to a rare court-ordered waterfront opportunity in West Vancouver, these listings show the wide range of properties that capture buyer interest — and how important detailed, accurate listing information is in driving meaningful engagement.
