Altamont is an exclusive neighbourhood in West Vancouver with estate properties & multimillion dollar homes. Walk along the water or up the side of the mountain winding past secluded estates & lush landscapes. The Village of Dundarave - shops & restaurants is 5 blocks east plus the 25th street pier & seawall walk that will take you all the way to the Lions Gate bridge . . or stop on route in Ambleside for coffee etc. There are 3 lovely playgrounds for children along the beach. . 25th street next to the pier (concession stand), John Lawson Park* (at 17th next to the pier). Check out the award winning fantasy playground made from wood.. very interesting. Children love it! There is also Ambleside beach, skatepark, playground & beach volleyball . . & concessions. Closer to the Lions Gate bridge is the off leash dog park close to the swan pond where blue herons nest in the tall trees. Amazing prehistoric looking birds!
There is a single rail line that runs in-between the house and the water. It is not a big deal and people don't complain but you should be aware of it. In the summertime the Rocky Mountaineer passenger train goes up to Whistler in the morning and back down around dinner time a few times per week. Otherwise there are infrequent trains including one or two at night that go by in one or two minutes. Lots of birds come to the garden including some beautiful little humming birds. There is an Eagles nest nearby. You can hear their distinctive cry.
Pipe Creek is next door (west). In winter you can hear the rushing water coming down the mountain. There is no shortage of nature. Beautiful walks in all directions.

The bus picks up 2 doors down on Marine Drive & takes you on a scenic ride directly downtown in 30 minutes. You can also go west to Horseshoe Bay in 15 minutes. There are excellent bike rides in the area. Take a scenic drive west on Marine Drive to Light House Park, Whyltcliffe & Horseshoe Bay. The drive to Whistler is spectacular on the Sea to Sky Highway. It takes 1 hr & 23 minutes to drive from the house to Chateau Whistler. By car it takes 40-60 minutes to get to & from the house from the airport depending on traffic. From the airport you can get to the house on public transit by taking the Canada Line downtown to Granville & Georgia and then get on the West Vancouver 'blue bus' number 250 Horseshoe Bay or the 253 Caulfeild & get off at 30th & Marine. Cross the street & walk 2 houses west & you have arrived at Chez Momo! Door to door service.
