EDITOR’S NOTE

IT’S A BUYERS’ MARKET

MARLENE EISNER EDITOR New Home + Condo Guide EMAIL: marlene.eisner@nexthome.ca TWITTER: @MarleneEisner

If you were ever thinking of buying a new home, now is the time to do it. But you don’t have to take my word for it. According to a Royal LePage House Price Survey released this month, a confluence of events has made this summer a perfect time to get serious about that new-home purchase.

Randy Ryalls, general manager at Royal LePage Sterling Realty, says attractive interest rates and the price depreciation in Greater Vancouver’s housing market, which is expected to continue throughout the summer, represents a great opportunity for homebuyers to invest in their first home or upgrade to a new one. Read the results of the survey on page 36.

And here’s more good news. If you want a new home but you don’t want to move your family to the suburbs, Michelle Hopkins has the scoop on the growing family-sized condo trend.

Developers are building brand-new, family-sized condos close to where you want to live, work and play. Check out what one new-home buyer – and some builders – have to say on page 50.

As always, we hope you enjoy this issue of NextHome. If there is something you would like us to write about, we’d love to hear from you.

JULY 27 & AUGUST 31 SUMMER AT THE MOVIES

SUMMER AT THE MOVIES On Sat. July 27 and Sat. Aug. 31, Panatch Group, the developer of Port Moody’s 50 Electronic Avenue, will host the Summer Cinema Series at Port Moody’s Rocky Point park. Beginning after sunset on the main lawn, the event will include famous food trucks, local businesses and vendors and of course... free popcorn!

Keep a watch on The Clock It’s always a worthwhile trip by the scenic Seabus over to Lonsdale Quay in the summer, but since the opening of the Polygon Gallery, it’s worth the trip any time of the year. On July 5, the Polygon opened an exhibition by multimedia artist, Christian Marclay, called The Clock. The installation involves a custom-built cinema (with comfy lounge sofas) showing the intricate, non-linear 14

DID YOU KNOW?

You may be hearing over and over, “It’s a buyer’s market”, but what does that mean? Investopedia says: “It’s a situation in which supply exceeds demand, giving purchasers an advantage over sellers in price negotiations.”

UDI Grind for Mental Health “It started out as a bit of a joke among us, as in, the development industry has been in a bit of ‘a grind’ this year,” says Urban Development Industry’s (UDI) Yvonne Lo. But when UDI was approached by the executive search company Taylor Ryan about doing a fundraiser for mental health, they got on board.

Though finding sponsors wasn’t too easy this year, getting participants was. “It’s the first year, so we

were expecting maybe 30 people, but we got over 90,” says Lo. The fantastic team-bonding experience raised money for the Canadian Mental Health Association while challenging team endurance on the three-kilometre uphill trek to the top of Grouse Mountain, where beer and snacks awaited the sweaty, triumphant hikers. “We will definitely be doing this again next year,” says Lo.

For outdoor enthusiasts, Fern Grove has direct access to hiking, biking, kayaking, canoing and fishing, yet is only a quick drive down the Abernathy connector to the shopping, services and entertainment at Meadowtown Shopping Centre. For kids, an 18

outdoor adventure park is down the street, and the neighbourhood is home to schools of all levels, both public and private.

These new cul-de-sac homes, built by Epic Homes, are located on a green belt, surrounded by lush forest. Inside, the two spacious, open-plan floorplans include elegant wide-plank flooring throughout and living areas filled with natural light. Kitchens are welcoming and feature gas ranges and quartz countertops. The three- or four-bedroom floorplans have 10-ft. ceilings on main floors, upper-floor laundry rooms, and

walk-out basements. Options include legal basement suites for additional revenue, as well as “in-law” suites to accommodate parents, other family members or caregivers. “It’s a great time to buy, but hurry, as this final phase of the Fern Grove community has only 24 homes,” says Epic Homes’ Ryan Connolly. “With Phase One sold out, this is your last chance to own a new home set next to world-class outdoor amenities and still only a short drive to everything you need.”

There has been significant investment infrastructure improvements in recent years

that means Maple Ridge is more connected to the rest of Metro Vancouver than ever before. The widening of the Pitt River Bridge, the removal of tolls on the Golden Ears Bridge and the new Port Mann span make it an easy commute to wherever you want to get to, for work or play.

Says Connolly, “On Saturday July 27, we will be opening our new Evans show home.” This show home will be located in Fern Grove Phase Two and will be the first opportunity to see the new model.

“The fully decorated and

furnished show home has been the subject of lots of anticipation building for those following our community,” says Connolly.

“In addition, we’re having a summer promotion – fully outfitted with upgraded premium stainless-steel appliances, featuring two-inch blinds, tankless high-efficiency hot water system, plus air conditioning, all included in the purchase price.” Right now, you can get a five-year closed term mortgage for as low as 2.79 per cent, along with grand opening pricing from $869,980.

Epic Homes is a family company that has been building high-quality, attractive and livable homes in Maple Ridge and Langley for over two decades. Their goal is to enhance the communities they love and also call home.

Khatsahlano Street Party

On July 6, Fourth Avenue in Kitsilano, from Burrard to Macdonald streets, was awash with thousands of people braving the iffy weather (there was a shower here and there), to visit the Khatsahlano Street Party, Vancouver’s largest free arts and music festival. There was loads of shopping at the tents most shops had set up on the street, as well as wellness booths, and even two spin classes held right on the street. The real draw were the live music stages,

20

New Home + Condo Guide | July 27–Aug. 10, 2019

with over 50 artists playing on seven different stages.

Also very popular were the information booths from the city of Vancouver to educate interested people about how they can get involved in the planning of the new Broadway Skytrain Development Plan, the new Jericho Lands plan, as well as the new 30-year TransitOriented Development plan.

People lined up to write down ideas, find out about events and chat with friendly volunteers.

Amber Grand Opening

July 6 was also an exciting day on the other side of Vancouver’s West Side, with the highly anticipated Grand Opening of Aragon’s Amber presentation centre on King Edward near Cambie Street. Guests could grab a cookie and coffee and, with the building nearing completion, wander across the hall from the sales centre into the one-level show home, with surprising views of the city for a groundfloor suite. The afternoon was hosted by 1470.FM Fairchild Radio, and the sales team, who helpfully pointed out that there was also a penthouse suite on the fourth floor to check out. It was definitely worth the climb upstairs to see the amazing view and the stunning design of the threebedroom home, which includes a rooftop deck with a milliondollar view of the mountains and cityscape.

CAMERON MCNEILL

Today’s economy has shaped the upcoming generation’s approach to property hunting.

The evident high costs of real estate in many large cities today has pushed a trend in Millennials to rent rather than own. However, buying a home is one of the most remarkable investments you will make, and it simply comes down 24

to your lifestyle, finances and what is most appropriate for you and your future when forming that decision.

Weighing the advantages and disadvantages, considering all the hidden costs, and recognizing your lifestyle and future aspirations are all major determining factors in this great debate of deciding whether to buy or rent.

ADVANTAGES VERSUS DISADVANTAGES

Understanding the complete rundown of advantages and

disadvantages can significantly narrow down the priorities and capabilities of a home seeker. With purchasing a home, there are a few noteworthy advantages to take into consideration. Primarily, buying a home is an investment, which typically see a significant growth in value and equity. If the home appreciates, the assets earned are incredibly beneficial in the long run, especially if you decide to sell. Furthermore, costs are generally more predictable as …continued on page 34

NEIGHBOURHOOD PROFILE

BURKE MOUNTAIN COQUITLAM

by MICHELLE HOPKINS

North of the city of Port Coquitlam, Northeast Coquitlam, also known as Burke Mountain, is a unique mountainside community within the city. Named for British author and statesman Edmund Burke, it is one of the city’s fastest growing, emerging districts. This area is still very much a work in progress but once built out, it will feature a host of amenities and schools, including a joint middle/ secondary school, and more.

LIFESTYLE

Burke Mountain is predominately a union of young families and outdoor enthusiasts who love to feed their desire for a greater connection to nature — hiking trails, parks galore, wilderness areas, roaring rivers, scenic lakes 26

New Home + Condo Guide |

July 27–Aug. 10, 2019

and the awesome ocean — without taking them too far from the civilized world.

VIBE

Play is the operative word here. Burke Mountain can be summed up in a few words – a bikeable, hikable and walkable neighbourhood that is pretty chill, yet active.

MEET THE NEIGHBOURS

Northeast Coquitlam is home to more than 12,120 people.

Because of its affordability and mountainside locale, in past years, young, active families have been drawn here. Idyllically situated mountainside, what’s not to love?

Average and median household incomes in Northeast Coquitlam

are also some of the highest across all areas of the city.

Residents also tend to be a little more educated compared to the city overall.

IN THE AREA

Residents have to leave their serene slice of heaven for shopping and dining. However, that is about to change. A key city initiative for future development is Burke Mountain Village, which will serve as the commercial and social hub.

The Whistler-ish village design will showcase high-density townhomes and apartments, a recreation complex with a community centre and a vibrant public plaza boasting a grocery store, restaurants and shops.

HOT SPOTS

PINCONE-BURKE PROVINCIAL PARK At the corner of Highway 10. Not only is this forest an up-and-coming hub for mountain biking, but it’s also home to some stunning hiking trails and views – minus the crowds.

PLANES TRAINS & AUTOMOBILES

For now, Burke Mountain commuters have two choices: Either they ride to work in their vehicles or hop on TransLink bus 191, which connects the neighbourhood to the Evergreen Extension and West Coast Express.

REAL ESTATE (NEW BUILDS)

QUICK FACTS

neighbourhood. Most notably, at The Foothills. A masterplanned community a century in the making, it has attracted a number of top-tiered builders.

Once filled out, it will be a city within itself. A great quality of life combined with housing prices about one-third the price of comparable properties on Vancouver’s west side, are other reasons Burke Mountain is becoming so desirable.

VICTORIA PARK A beautiful greenspace with a fenced turf field that supports super-8 soccer, a full-sized multisport court, and a skate spot for beginner and intermediate levels.

Northeast Coquitlam: • Population: 12,120 • Average household income: $123,577 • 64 per cent post-secondary education • 32 per cent of residents speak a language other than English at home Types of housing (2016 Census) • 22 per cent triplex / quadruplex / rowhome / townhome • 6 per cent duplex • 13 per cent single-family home (with secondary suite) • 58 per cent single-family home (without secondary suite)

GEOTHERMAL ENERGY: A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE

by STEPHANIE MACDONALD

New Home + Condo Guide chats with Lane Theriault, president of Subterra Renewables, about how geothermal energy systems are improving buildings around the country.

New Home + Condo Guide: To get geothermal technology in a building, do you have to build it into the construction phase? Or can you retrofit an older building in an urban area as well? How does it work?

Lane Theriault: Yes, geothermal technology can be retrofitted for older buildings, however, more commonly, geothermal systems are integrated into the design of new buildings. How these systems 30

New Home + Condo Guide |

July 27–Aug. 10, 2019

work is geothermal technology circulates fluid through a series of underground pipes that either absorb or dissipate heat into the ground. In the winter, heat is extracted from the earth and is used to heat the building. In the summer, the flow reverses, transferring heat from the building to the ground loops to generate cold air. Building these systems directly into a new development comes with its benefits in terms of upfront costs, which we absorb from the builder in return for running the system and charging residents a monthly fee for heating and cooling. However, Subterra Renewables is able to create unique systems customized for each individual project.

NHCG: What has been the

feedback from your most recent projects?

LT: The most significant feedback from those in the development community is that they didn’t know they could ‘go green’ or build such an energy-efficient building within their anticipated budget. Given the current state of increasing construction costs, combined with the state of Vancouver’s real estate market, a lot of developers are looking for ways to reduce their construction budget. The capital savings from not installing a traditional HVAC system allows developers to meet their savings requirements.

Additionally, a lot of developers look favourably upon Subterra’s model that allows for rates to be locked in for the end-user.

NHCG: How is living in a

building with a geothermal system different from living in a conventional building? How does it affect strata fees?

LT: Living in a building with

geothermal technology brings a better quality of life to residents than living in a conventional building. A building with one of our low-carbon energy systems

offers all of the benefits of going green, not only helping developers meet their sustainability goals, but more importantly, helping the end user reduce their own carbon footprint and greenhouse gas emissions.

The systems are very quiet and there is no equipment outside of the buildings. The earth loops that generate heating and cooling can last for generations, with the systems handling multiple loads simultaneously, for example, heating homes, heating pools and cooling other areas all at once. Strata fees are the same, or even slightly less than with a traditional HVAC, but obviously, with a much smaller carbon footprint per home. The residents’ rates do not fluctuate with energy hikes, and builders get points toward being LEED certified, as well as saving money.

NHCG: If the developer pays no costs for the system, does that translate to lower buying costs for homebuyers and then how does Subterra Renewables make its revenue?

LT: The developer doesn’t have any large upfront commitment costs

for us to implement the geothermal system. We design, install, monitor and maintain the renewable energy system, which in turn reduces the developer’s construction budget and risk. For the building owner and residents, they pay a simple monthly fee while receiving a heating and cooling system that is superior to conventional systems - this is what we call a ‘Renewable Energy Fee’. This fee is equal to or less than what the building owner or residents would have paid for operations and maintenance if the building had a conventional HVAC system, a much better system with no extra cost.

Lane Theriault is president of Subterra Renewables, a company that develops and operates geothermal energy systems using the latest geothermal and heat recovery technology. The company helps building developers reduce costs while meeting the unique energy needs and carbon reduction goals of their buildings, providing residents with cheaper heating and cooling while reducing their carbon footprint. nexthome.ca 31

fees are constructed on a fixedrate mortgage or set strata fee payments. Monthly fees will not fluctuate as forcefully as they may in the rental housing market, which is a key factor to consider in making your most suitable long-term decision. One of the largest benefits of owning a home is how it may play into retirement.

Whether paying off your mortgage or downsizing to allow you to own your home outright and put money in your pocket, having only maintenance versus a monthly rent can provide significant comfort at retirement.

If you are unsure about your long-term plans (five-plus years), renting may be a more suitable alternative. Purchasing a home does come with costs associated along with market changes. Best practice is to plan on owning your home for at least five years, which would allow you to manage most market changes and/or make sense of upfront costs.

need for flexibility, then renting allows for this in simply giving your landlord notice while being left with no added responsibilities.

Renting also typically requires a month or two of upfront deposit versus a substantial down payment of several thousand dollars, which can be challenging to accumulate.

IDENTIFY HIDDEN COSTS

Purchasing a home is not just about the total cost of the house. Many potential first-time homebuyers may be unaware of all of the costs that come with obtaining a property. A buyer should be conscious of the events that take place in the process Home inspection fees, legal fees, appraisal fees, taxes (if applicable) and the deposit are just a few. It is best to set yourself up for success when going into the exciting new journey of buying, while also avoiding any surprises later on. Speak with trusted professionals such as realtors, mortgage specialists or

financial advisors, which will help in taking the next big leap. The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) also has very helpful resources you can access.

Along with trusted advisors, weigh your options and consider your short- and long-term goals as well as your lifestyle. Choose the situation that best suits you overall and then get to work on finding the ideal home.

HOME PRICES DECLINE ACROSS GREATER VANCOUVER IN Q2

Home prices across Greater Vancouver continued to decline in the second quarter of 2019, according to a Royal LePage House Price Survey released in mid-July. The downward pressure on the market was a result of high inventory levels across all housing types.

The aggregate home price in 36

New Home + Condo Guide |

July 27–Aug. 10, 2019

Greater Vancouver decreased 4.1 per cent to $1.2 million, compared to the same period last year. When broken down by housing type, the median price of a two-storey home and bungalow declined by 3.3 per cent and 7.6 per cent, respectively, to $1.5 million and $1.3 million. The median price of a condominium decreased 2.8 per

cent year-over-year to $668,389.

Affordability in the British Columbia housing market remained on provincial and federal government agendas during the second quarter of the year. A combination of recent economic announcements including the foreign buyers’ tax, the speculation and vacancy tax, and the mortgage

stress test contributed to elevated inventory levels and a wait-and-see approach from potential buyers.

As new building construction remained on hold during this time period, summer homebuyers will have the opportunity to choose from affordable listings before the traditional fall price uptick.

“A wider variety of available homes to choose from is giving homebuyers extra time to plan and make decisions,” says Randy Ryalls, general manager, Royal LePage Sterling Realty. “A better understanding of the reality of the real estate market in the region is helping both homebuyers and sellers to manage expectations and make better-informed transactions.”

Ryalls added that attractive interest rates and the Greater Vancouver housing market’s price depreciation, expected to continue throughout the summer, represent a great opportunity for homebuyers to invest in their first home or upgrade to a new house.

Looking ahead to the end of the year, Royal LePage is forecasting further declines across the board, with aggregate prices in Greater Vancouver expected to fall 5.5 per cent at year-end compared to the end of 2018.

MARKET SUMMARIES

The aggregate home price in the city of Vancouver in the second quarter of 2019 decreased 4.7 per cent year-over-year to $1.3 million. The median condominium price decreased 5.6 per cent to $766,953, the first price decrease seen for this type of housing since the third quarter of 2014. Twostorey homes and bungalows both depreciated when compared to the same time last year, decreasing 3.9 per cent and 5.4 per cent to $2.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

WEST VANCOUVER

Meanwhile, the aggregate price of a home in West Vancouver continued to decline, falling 7.6 per cent to $2.7 million. Within the region, the median price of a two-storey home decreased 0.7 per cent to $3.3 million, while the price of a bungalow fell 10.8 per cent to $2.5 million. Condominiums also saw a double-digit decline of 12.9 per cent to $1.75 million.

RICHMOND

In Richmond, the aggregate price of a home fell 4.1 per cent to $1.1 million, while median prices of two-storey homes and bungalows declined 3.7 per cent and 9.3 per cent to $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Condominium prices saw a modest decrease of 1.8 per cent to $580,590.

BURNABY

Homes in Burnaby decreased 7.3 per cent to $1.29 million. Bungalows saw the highest price depreciation in the region, as the median price decreased 13.0 per cent year-over-year, to $1.2 million. The median price of a two-storey home also decreased 6.1 per cent to $1.4 million while condominium prices decreased 2.0 per cent to $610,829.

COQUITLAM

Coquitlam home values declined with the region’s aggregate home price decreasing 3.5 per cent to $1.07 million. The median price of a two-storey home decreased 2.9 per cent to $1.2 million. Both bungalows and condominiums saw similar price depreciation, decreasing 4.7 per cent and 4.3 per cent to $1.1 million and $527,774, respectively.

SURREY

In Surrey, home prices remained competitive within the region. The aggregate price of a home in the area decreased 3.2 per cent year-over-year to $876,505. The median price of a two-storey home and bungalow decreased 3.5 per cent and 4.0 per cent to $979,779 and $862,592, respectively.

Condominiums saw a moderate increase of 2.7 per cent to $401,693, making Surrey the only market in Greater Vancouver to see an increase in condominium prices.

LANGLEY

The aggregate price of a home in Langley decreased 4.4 per cent to $936,715. Condominium prices drove the market in the second quarter, increasing 4.9 per cent to $402,019, while bungalows and two-storey homes decreased 8.5 per cent and 3.4 per cent to $887,145 and $1.04 million, respectively.

NORTH VANCOUVER

This area witnessed price depreciation in the second quarter, as the aggregate price of a home decreased 4.2 per cent to $1.3 million. The median price of a two-storey home remained relatively flat, dipping 0.9 per cent to $1.6 million. Bungalow and condominium prices also saw depreciation, decreasing 7.8 per cent and 7.1 per cent to $1.5 million and $640,148, respectively.

“We now have evidence of a sustained market recovery in the nation’s largest market, and signs of a price floor in other regions hit hard by the 18-monthold housing correction,” says Phil Soper, president and CEO, Royal LePage. “Only in the West do we see a significant number of homebuyers remaining on the sidelines, depressing sales volumes and causing prices to sag.” nexthome.ca 37

19TH ANNUAL VANCOUVER CHINATOWN FESTIVAL SAVE THE DATE The Vancouver Chinatown Business Improvement Area Society (VCBIA) and title sponsor, Coromandel Properties, announced the line-up recently of the activities at the upcoming Vancouver Chinatown Festival. The family event, which attracts more than 50,000 people, takes place on Sat. Aug. 10, 11 a.m. – 9 p.m. at the Keefer at Columbia Street in Vancouver’s historic Chinatown. It is one of BC’s largest summer multi-cultural events.

This year’s festival theme features martial arts Kung Fu competitions, traditional arts and crafts from around the world, Vancouver Chinatown walking tours, an open-air market filled with exotic goods, multi-cultural stage performances and games for kids of all ages. There will be live bands, and an evening outdoor movie starting at 7 p.m. at the Main Stage.

The Chinatown mascot, Van Van, will also be at the festival. Admission is free.

Other attractions include: A lion dance at Opening Ceremony; traditional dancing and cultural performances; climb the wall; a mobile aquarium; more than 20 multi-cultural food trucks; a TD photo booth; wheel of fortune; Tamiya mini 4WD racing in Vancouver; a magic performance.

Since parking is limited, it’s best to bike, walk or take public transit to the event. This year, there will be a free shuttle bus to the festival and a bike valet on site. The bus stop is across from the Waterfront Station on West Cordova St. (600 W. Cordova St.) in downtown Vancouver. The shuttle bus runs every 30 minutes from 10 a.m.-7 p.m.

Volunteers are still needed and anyone who would like to volunteer is welcome to email info@vancouver-chinatown.com.

For more information visit chinatownfestival.ca.

The Vancouver Chinatown BIA Society (VCBIA) is a non-profit organization that aims to create a dynamic and sustainable Chinatown community and tourist destination. VCBIA takes a lead role in expanding partnership with three levels of government, community organizations, and corporations to improve the physical environment of Chinatown, to implement marketing programs to promote Chinatown to both locals and tourists, and to develop initiatives to revitalize the economy of Chinatown. nexthome.ca 39

Think Tiny Home!

Tiny homes provide a stylish and functional alternative to cottage life.

by JO ALCORN Tiny homes don’t just cost less upfront; they are also much cheaper to maintain; that is why so many people are jumping on the trend. I worked hard to remodel an old 5th Wheel Trailer for my parents to enjoy. The great thing about this tiny home is its mobility – it’s cottage life wherever they drive to! Read on to find out how I turned a dated space into a livable, fun home on wheels.

New Home + Condo Guide |

July 27–Aug. 10, 2019

RESTORE AND CLEAN How did I go about restoring a 15-year-old trailer that was stored in a damp location? By striping it right back to its bare bones! I wanted to ensure the home housed no health hazards. Once we ripped it apart, we found water damage, which causes mould. We turned to Concrobium Mold Control (concrobium.com). It contains no bleach or harsh chemicals, kills mould at the root and prevents it from coming back. When it came to surface cleaning, I chose Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day (mrsmeyers.ca). I love that they are formulated with plant-derived ingredients, essential oils and other thoughtfully chosen materials to create effective products.

KITCHEN & BATHROOM Instead of installing new kitchen cabinets, I worked with a great company called InSPRAYtional Painting, who was able to bring the old cabinets back to life by spraying them. We chose two colours from Benjamin Moore (benjaminmoore.ca): Chantilly Lace OC-65 for the uppers and Mount Saint Anne CC-710 for the lowers, for a twotone look, both in Aura Interior Paint in Eggshell finish. I also wanted to update the tiny kitchen’s backsplash, but traditional tile would break and crack when the tiny home hit the highway. I chose a company called The Good Tile (thegoodtile.com) who offer bold wallpaper and luxury vinyl tile options that are easy to install and have no risk of breaking. I didn’t skimp on faucet features in the kitchen or bathroom.

For the kitchen, I chose Delta’s Trinsic (deltafaucet.ca) faucet, which is sleek and modern. For the bathroom, I decided on the Pivotal Bath Collection, which creates a look that makes a true statement; I wanted to go with a real contrasting colour, so I chose black.

BEDROOM Bedding had to be easy to get into the small opening of the trailer but still incredibly comfortable. A tiny home is a space people might spend months in at a time, so I wanted it to have all the comfort of home. I chose Cocoon by Sealy (cocoonbysealy.ca). They offer superior quality, and their mattress comes in a small box, perfect for getting into a tiny home space.

LIVING ROOM In a tiny home, you have to think about how much things weigh. I selected NEUE Floors (neuefloors.

com) an engineered hardwood plank that is lighter in weight than traditional hardwood and has better expansion and contraction attributes, which is ideal in this application. I worked with Metrie (metrie.com), which offers a highend, finely crafted solid wood and composite moulding and interior doors to create faux beams. I also used their hollow moulded panel doors, so they don’t weigh as much. Another unexpected element is the fireplace. There was an existing bookshelf builtin, and instead of ripping it out, …continued on page 54 nexthome.ca 41

FAMILY-SIZE CONDOS BECOMING A POPULAR TREND

by MICHELLE HOPKINS

Thirty-something Dave and Brenda Paris are expecting their first child any day now. Rather than look in the suburbs for a home, these Millennials chose a condo in Vancouver’s sought-after Mount Pleasant neighbourhood.

“We bought a two-storey condo in the Independent and moved in two months ago. We have 1,000 sq. ft. inside and a 500-sq.-ft.-deck,” says Dave Paris, adding there are several young families in the building. “My wife and I love the energy of the city. Neither one of us wanted to live in the suburbs.”

What’s more, the location of the condo makes it easy for the couple to go downstairs and out the front door to get groceries or coffee.

“We enjoy the freedom condo living affords us …

no lawn to maintain, and everything, like the park, community centre and schools, are within walking distance,” says Dave.

Over the last few years, the push to build larger, family-sized condos has become a growing trend, one that news reports over the years have attributed to the unaffordability of single-family homes in Vancouver. In spite of this, Millennial couples with children seem to be preferring an urban lifestyle, with its easy access to transit and entertainment, and find an urban condo to be a more appealing choice than a suburban home.

The trend doesn’t surprise Manuela Mirecki, senior vice-president of marketing and design, Ledingham McAllister Properties Ltd.

“Three-bedroom condominiums are certainly nothing new, but it is absolutely true that more families are seeing condominiums as a permanent lifestyle choice rather than just a step towards ownership of a townhome or single-family home,” says Mirecki. “As Vancouver has become an increasingly international city, there is a greater appreciation of the lifestyle ease that comes from living in a family-sized condominium, something that is incredibly common in the rest of the world.”

Cedar Creek, by condo developer Ledingham McAllister Properties, like other family-friendly condo buildings catering to young families, offers play parks, dedicated greenspaces as well as picnic tables, community gardens and bicycle repair stations, while being close to the urban amenities families want.

Boffo Developments is another company that saw an opportunity to provide the option of a family-sized condominium as an alternative to a detached home.

“Whether it be a family with young children, or a retired couple needing an office and space for visiting children/grandchildren – three bedrooms are a must,” says Karen West, director of operations and marketing for Boffo.

Its newest downtown Vancouver project, The Smithe, has more than 6,000-sq.-ft. of amenity …continued on page 52 nexthome.ca 51

…continued from page 51

space including indoor/outdoor entertaining lounges, a children’s play area and garden plots, to name a few.

“Everything is within walkable distance, like parks, the seawall, theatres, stadiums, restaurants, shopping, and schools (two elementary, several Montessori, a high school, and others),” says West.

The Oaks, by Strand, offers both three- and threebedroom-and-den homes, ranging from 1,027- to 1,300-sq.-ft., all featuring generously sized decks.

“The Oaks’ proximity to family-oriented amenities such as parks, schools, shopping and transit, can 52

be found within a 10-minute walk of the site,” says Mike Mackay, president of Strand. “It delivers many opportunities for people to enjoy park-like amenities, shared work spaces, a fully equipped gym and spin studio, residents’ lounge, outdoor BBQ area and media room… all without leaving the comfort of the building they’ll call home.”

Mackay says that every project Strand undertakes today has a significant number of family-oriented homes. “In fact, no project we are developing has less than 40 per cent of its units allocated to familyoriented units,” adds Mackay.

I made it a central piece in the living room space. I had a Dimplex 23-inch Multi-Fire XHD (dimplex. com) unit built into the bookshelf, creating a feature wall in the tiny space. It was the perfect addition to the area with the optional heat – giving the space warmth on cold nights, or running without heat during the warm summer months.

OUTSIDE It was time to make a good first impression. I worked with Great Canadian Fleet Services (greatcanadianfleet.com) who were able to repair the damaged fibreglass and paint to make the mobile home look like new again. I also chose to have it entirely wrapped by Bolt Signs (boltsigns. com). They were able to produce and install a vinyl wrap to completely transform the outside of the mini-home. The dated awning was hanging off the mobile home and in desperate need of a complete overhaul. I teamed up with The Awning Authority, which specializes in retractable awnings and screens that are designed to last a lifetime.

Finally, this tiny home would not be complete without a great charcoal grill that you can easily set-up when you arrive at your destination – so we added an ivory colour Weber Master-Touch (weber.com) charcoal kettle to the mix. This retro-looking grill fit perfectly with the retro-looking trailer. I hope this tiny home inspires you to think outside conventional spaces!

ADVICE | HAVAN REPORT

A SPLASH OF STYLE

by RON RAPP

HAVAN member Kalu Interiors knows how to splash out when it comes to personalizing a home. Working with On Time Construction Ltd., they remodelled a two-bedroom condo into one master suite with a striking full-sized spa.

KEY STEPS TAKEN TO REACH THE HOMEOWNER’S GOALS INCLUDE: REPLACING THE ORIGINAL BUILT-IN TUB with a free-

standing tub, adding a floating vanity and raising the ceiling a few inches for more height all helped to open the space. A full-height alcove was created 58

alongside the tub to add additional shelving and storage, and increased the footprint of the bathroom.

Functionality was addressed by increasing the width of the shower, lowering the shower curb, adding a bench for sitting, and a niche for storage.

SCALE AND CAREFUL ATTENTION TO PROPORTIONS

of integrated items into the bathroom provided the best functionality to the homeowners. These included carefully scaled counter heights to the users; the width of the new doorway; increased ceiling heights …continued on page 60

and levels of lighting in the ceiling, walls and accents located under the vanity, including motion-detection accent LED pathways in the ensuite.

NEW FINISHES selected included an array of light

colours and textures to provide a clean, bright yet dramatic spa-inspired canvas. This was done using large format, white polished marble porcelain tiles, contrasted by key features, finishes and fixtures such as a matte black vanity, black honed granite, a runway of matte black tile and matte-finished hardware and fixtures accented throughout.

KEY TECHNOLOGY WAS INTEGRATED TO MAXIMIZE THE USE AND EFFICIENCY Occupant motion detectors

for lighting also included a timer for ventilation and occupancy tracking for the heated floors. All

the lighting is wireless, programmable, and motion sensor-sensitive. Should the owner wake up in the middle of the night, automatic accent pathway lighting initiates upon entry into the ensuite.

Convenient features such as a shower bench, tiled shower drain, multiple levels of bathing including rain shower, hand-held and body jets offer ultimate usability and comfort.
