Suburban living with an urban feel
Surrey’s City Centre: the new downtown Surrey’s City Centre is rapidly becoming a booming real estate market, with several developers offering projects in the region. Concord Pacific’s Park Place will soon be joined by Park Avenue, both of which are located just steps away from the King George SkyTrain station and the Central City shopping mall. Park Avenue will be home to the largest amenities in western Canada, according to Project Marketing Manager Peter Udzenija. “Surrey is ready for something this huge,” he says, adding that the entire complex will be the largest urban community of its kind. “We’re pretty happy that it’s all coming together,” Udzenija says. Woodbridge Homes’ The Brookland is also a highlight in the area. Located minutes from
all of the major amenities in City Centre, the one- and two-bedroom homes are full of elegant features and thoughtful details, including stainless-steel appliances, beautiful hand-set tile flooring in the bathrooms and modern touches such as a breakfast bar and dimmable track lighting in the kitchen, so those harsh florescent lights are a thing of the past. Another developer in the area is WestStone Properties with its Ultra project, which will soon hold its grand opening. It is the third phase of WestStone’s master-planned Urban Village community, and joins previous projects Agenda and Element. With 10 unique floorplans to choose from, buyers will have plenty of ways to customize their new homes.
‘Surrey really hasn’t seen this before’
Park Place a new level of class in City Centre by Kerry Vital
Surrey’s City Centre is a real estate hot spot right now, and Concord Pacific is right in the thick of this trend with Park Place, which is offering high-end floorplans and finishings at a much more affordable price. “The plans are well thought-out and fairly flexible,” says Concord Pacific Project Marketing Manager Peter Udzenija. “They really maximize the living and dining spaces.” Buyers have been moving in since the end of November, and Udzenija says they have appreciated the on-site concierge and extra security who were available during the move-in process. “It’s a different level of class,” he says. “Surrey really hasn’t seen this before.” There are 698 suites in the development, spread between two 36-storey concrete high-rise towers with 10 homes per floor. There are a mix of one- and two-bedroom homes, though the one-bedroom homes are now sold out.
“
The amenities are incredible ... They are bigger than anything we’ve ever done,” says Project Marketing Manager Peter Udzenija. Inside, there are a variety of floorplans to choose from, ranging in size from 818 to 1,552 square feet for the twobedroom homes. Aluminium-framed laminate cabinets (in your choice of Wenge or Oak) with frosted glass accent cabinets are standard in every home, and are perfectly complemented by Corian countertops and a mosaic-look porcelain tile backsplash in the kitchen. The look is carried over into the master ensuite, which also include a beautiful soaker tub and a countermounted sink. The main bathrooms are just as elegant, with a large-format ceramic tile shower surround and a drop-in sink.
Every home has an amazing view, with expansive windows and generous open balconies. Depending on the floor and direction, views include mountains, Surrey City Centre and a green belt. However, it is the amenities that are one of the most impressive features of Park Place. “The amenities are incredible,” says Udzenija. “They are bigger than anything we’ve ever done.” The buildings include a large gym with a yoga and Pilates room, theatre, a billiards and game room and two steam rooms. The podium level between the two buildings holds a barbecue area, indoor and outdoor lounge and an event kitchen. However, the most exciting amenity is the bowling alley. “It’s booked from opening to closing every day,” laughs Udzenija. “It was a last-minute addition … we took out some of the commercial (space) to put in the alley.” As Udzenija noted, the bottom floor of each building holds commercial space. No shops have been officially announced, but there are rumours of a popular coffee shop and a large pharmacy. Remaining homes at Park Place start at $290,000. For more information visit www.parkplaceliving.ca or call 604-5839866 to make an appointment to see the suites.

Home construction booming in Surrey’s City Centre ... but that’s not all that’s happening in the area Shopping abounds in City Centre Those in need of retail therapy can rejoice! There are plenty of shopping options available in Surrey’s City Centre area. The largest shopping area is the Central City mall, located on King George Boulevard. With over 130 shops, restaurants and services, Central City truly has something for everyone. With a five-storey inner atrium designed by architect Bing Thom, the mall is not only a destination for shoppers. It has appeared in several movies and TV shows, including I, Robot and Smallville. The building has won several awards, including a Commercial Surrey NewCity award this year for Thom and his team. Guildford Town Centre mall is also just minutes away, with its own selection of shops. The mall is currently undergoing a new expansion that is due to open in 2013. Concord Pacific’s Park Place development will also hold its own array of shops on the ground level. The list is rumoured to include a coffee shop and a pharmacy.
