About the Neighbourhood
Living in
Tynehead
Tynehead is a small, nature-focused neighbourhood defined by its adjacency to Tynehead Regional Park — 260 hectares of second-growth forest, the Serpentine River, and some of the most beautiful trails in Surrey. Living in Tynehead means having a wilderness experience minutes from your front door, with birdwatching, salmon viewing, and forest hiking as part of daily life.
The housing stock is primarily detached single-family homes on larger-than-average lots, many with mature trees and landscaping that blends into the park-like setting. Some properties back directly onto the regional park, offering an extraordinary connection to nature that is rarely found in an urban setting. The neighbourhood is quiet, residential, and attracts buyers who specifically seek this lifestyle.
Tynehead is not for everyone — it is removed from the commercial bustle, has limited walkable amenities, and requires a car for most errands. But for nature lovers, families who want space and trees, and anyone who values peace and quiet over convenience, Tynehead offers a lifestyle that is genuinely unique within Surrey's borders.

Lifestyle
Parks & Recreation
Tynehead Regional Park is the largest and most ecologically significant park in Surrey — 260 hectares of forest, river, and wildlife habitat that defines the neighbourhood experience.
Tynehead Regional Park
260 hectares of second-growth forest with extensive trail networks, the Serpentine River, salmon spawning habitat, wildlife viewing, and nature education. The neighbourhood's defining feature.
Serpentine River Trail
Scenic trail following the Serpentine River through the park. Popular for walking, running, and nature observation. Connects to broader regional trail networks.
Tynehead Hatchery
Fish hatchery within the park where visitors can learn about salmon conservation. A unique community amenity and education resource.
Amenities
Shopping & Dining
Tynehead has virtually no commercial within the neighbourhood itself. Residents drive to nearby Fraser Heights, Fleetwood, or Guildford for shopping, dining, and services. This trade-off comes with the territory of living in a nature-focused community.
Fraser Heights Shopping Area
Nearest commercial area along 152 Street with grocery stores, restaurants, and everyday services. About 10 minutes by car.
Fleetwood Village
Shopping and services along Fraser Highway, approximately 10-15 minutes south.
Guildford Town Centre
Major mall with 200+ stores for comprehensive shopping. About 15 minutes west by car.
Commuting
Getting Around
Tynehead is one of Surrey's most car-dependent neighbourhoods. Bus service exists but is infrequent, and the area is designed for vehicle access. Highway 1 is accessible via the 176 Street interchange, providing connections to Vancouver (40-50 minutes) and Langley.
For most residents, having two vehicles is practical. The trade-off for limited transit is the quiet, nature-focused lifestyle that makes Tynehead special. The coming SkyTrain extension will improve regional connectivity via stations in nearby Fleetwood.
Investment Potential
Why Buy in Tynehead?
Tynehead offers a lifestyle that is virtually impossible to replicate elsewhere in urban Surrey. Living beside 260 hectares of regional parkland, with old-growth forest trails, the Serpentine River, and abundant wildlife right outside your door, is an extraordinary amenity that cannot be manufactured or moved.
Properties here, especially those backing onto the park, hold their value exceptionally well. The limited supply of homes adjacent to irreplaceable natural amenities creates a floor under values that insulates owners from broader market fluctuations.
