Chip Wilson, the founder of Lululemon, continues to hold the title for the most expensive residential property in British Columbia with his stunning waterfront mansion. According to the latest assessments from the British Columbia Assessment Authority, Wilson's home, valued at approximately $82.6 million, has seen a slight increase from last year's valuation of $81.8 million.
Wilson's luxurious residence at 3085 Point Grey Rd. has topped the list for several years, attracting attention not only for its price tag but also for the political debates it has sparked. In 2024, Wilson stirred controversy by posting signs on his property criticizing Premier David Eby and the NDP government. This led to some backlash, including graffiti labeling him a "selfish billionaire."
The recent property assessments indicate that the overall housing market in B.C. remains stable, with most homeowners experiencing minor changes in their property values, typically within a range of 5% to +5%.
Among the other top properties, the secondmost expensive home is located on Belmont Ave., valued at $71.7 million, while a 770acre private island known as James Island ranks third, valued at $57.5 million. Other notable mentions include more properties in Vancouver, reflecting the city's high real estate prices.
For those interested in detailed assessments, a full list of the 500 most expensive residential addresses in B.C. is available from BC Assessment.
