About South Slope

South Slope runs down the hill south of Kingsway between Royal Oak Avenue and the Edmonds area, toward Marine Drive and the Fraser River. Many streets look south, and on clear days Mount Baker fills the view.

Royal Oak and Edmonds stations on the Expo Line sit along the top of the neighbourhood, with Metrotown a short ride or drive away. Byrne Creek Ravine Park runs through the area, and Burnaby South Secondary and several elementary schools are close by.

Most homes are detached houses, many rebuilt in recent decades with suites, plus newer duplexes and some townhomes and condos closer to Kingsway and the stations. It suits buyers who want a residential street without being far from SkyTrain.
