North Vancouver Duplex Living
What is a Duplex Home?
A duplex is a single dwelling designed for two separate households, each with its own private entrance. In North Vancouver, duplexes are most commonly side‑by‑side homes on one lot, sharing a common wall, with each owner typically having their own garage space and yard. Some duplexes may also be up‑down configurations (one unit per floor), but these are less common on the North Shore. In some cases, “duplex” can also refer to three‑ or four‑unit buildings (triplexes or fourplexes), depending on the property’s zoning. These homes usually offer less outdoor space but can still provide more privacy than a condo or townhouse.
Ownership & Maintenance
Like a detached home, maintenance costs for a duplex are primarily your responsibility, except for shared elements such as the roof or exterior walls. While there are no monthly strata fees, most duplexes have a registered strata plan that outlines shared responsibilities for common or overlapping expenses, such as insurance. This balance of affordability, privacy, and independence makes duplexes a popular choice for first‑time buyers, families looking to upsize, and down-sizers who want less upkeep than a detached house but more freedom than a condo or townhouse.
FAQ:
Do duplexes in North Vancouver have strata fees?

Generally, there are no monthly strata fees for duplexes. However, a registered strata plan typically exists to address shared expenses like insurance or roof repairs.
Are duplexes a good investment in North Vancouver?

Yes — duplexes often appreciate well due to their land value, independence (no strata), and desirable North Shore locations. They can be an excellent choice for buyers who want a mix of affordability and long‑term growth.
What’s the difference between a duplex and a townhouse?

A duplex usually has only two (or a few) units on a single lot, offering more privacy and no monthly strata fees, while a townhouse is part of a larger complex with shared amenities and regular maintenance fees.
