Just in the City of NV

The City of North Vancouver extends north to the south side of 29th Street. So the house at 235 West 28th Street is in the most northern part of the City of North Vancouver just within its borders.

This house with its white stucco and blue cedar clapboard exterior is one of the typical designs of houses in the area. There is no listing in the Building Permit for the house, but the 1960 City Directory reports the owners to be John P. and Jean M. Moore. John Moore was employed as an estimator by Welsh and Son.

In 1965 William F. and Lois A. M. Hare were the residents. William Hare was a sargeant in the RCMP. By 1971 Nelson E. and Jeanette Teskey were the residents. Again Nelson Teskey was a sergeant in the RCMP. However, by 1980, William F. and Lois Hare were again living in the house and now they were reported as being the owners. William Hare was now a justice of the peace for the Province of B.C.

In 1991 and 1995/1996 Larry L. and Corrine Gillanders were the owners of the 235 West 28th Street home. During this time the Coastline Appraisal Group was also listed at that address. The year 2000 phone book also lists the Gillanders as living at the 235 West 28th Street address.

This 6 bedroom, 2 bathroom home has recently sold for $1,189,000. (See Link.)
