Not only is its name fun to say, the Montecito neighbourhood is an exciting place to live that spans south of Burnaby Mountain from Hastings Street to Lougheed Highway. Many of the Burnaby condos for sale in Montecito are townhouse developments found near Halifax Street and Duthie Avenue.

With many single-family bungalow style houses and larger Burnaby condos, Montecito is a family-friendly neighbourhood and home to both Sperling Elementary and Montecito Elementary Schools. There is a local shopping plaza at Hastings Street and Kensington Avenue, and the Brentwood Town Centre shopping mall is only a short trip west along Lougheed Highway. Exciting outdoor recreation may be the neighbourhood's greatest appeal, as it’s right on the border of the Burnaby Mountain Conservation Area and the Burnaby Mountain Golf Course, perfect for adventure and leisure.

Groceries can be found at Bainbridge Mart which is an 8-minute walk and you'll find Greystone Dental Clinic only a 5 minute walk as well. Love being outside? Look no further than Montecito Park and Greystone Park Site, which are both only steps away.
