Bedford Landing Embodies the Community of the Future

Bedford Landing – ParkLane Homes has given its master-planned Fort Langley development real estate the charm and comfortable feel of living in a small town, while offering single-family townhouse and condominium homes.

Published from Westcoast Homes and Design by the Vancouver Sun to promote this pre-construction development.

Masterplanned communities have much to offer: architectural continuity, sense of community and convenience. But for some home buyers, such communities have also been associated with cookie-cutter homes that are virtually indistinguishable from each other. Fortunately, forward-thinking developers such as ParkLane Homes are determined to change this stereotype with such new communities as Bedford Landing in the Fraser Valley in Fort Langley.

Situated on the banks of the Fraser River in the heart of historic Fort Langley, Bedford Landing by ParkLane Homes combines contemporary living, rural beauty and the comfortable classic feel of living in a small town. “We think Bedford Landing truly represents the master planned community of the future,” explains ParkLane Home’s Marketing Manager Curt Woodhall. “Here, each single family home is very unique, from the floor plans and colour schemes to the exterior architecture and even individual landscaping details. At the same time, all of the architectural styles available are complementary so the result is the ambience and look of an established neighbourhood.”

Bedford Landing in Fort Langley provides a rare combination of waterfront living, proximity to an urban centre and even a golf course. When complete, it will have 378 homes, including single-family, townhouses, and apartment-condominiums, abundant park space and amenities such as a new public plaza and wharf at the east end of the neighbourhood. Even the Bedford Landing townhomes, says Woodhall, don’t look like the typical, identical row homes. “It is quite difficult to tell that these are actually multifamily residences – the building was designed to look more like a large, beautiful estate home with a number of entries and very little repetition.”

The classic Arts and Crafts architecture of Bedford Landing by ParkLane Homes has been painstakingly planned, right down to the mature landscaping and fencing, all in the effort of creating a classic neighbourhood feel. Interiors, with the open-concept floor plans and light-filled windows, are modern and luxurious. Features include modern gourmet kitchens with stainless steel appliances, maple Shaker cabinetry, and granite islands. Bathrooms have soothing soaker tubs and separate showers, and main living areas come with cozy gas fireplaces. Berber or modern shag flooring and handset tiling in the entryways are also standard at the Fort Langley Bedford Landing single-family homes.

The streets of Bedford Landing were also purposely designed with lane-access garages. “This was don’t so that you don’t see a bunch of garages along the street and it allowed us to really make a striking impact with the streetscape,” notes Woodhall. Most importantly, a home in Bedford Landing Fort Langley means having the peace of mind that comes from purchasing a Parklane Home, from one of B.C.’s most respected homebuilders.

With unprecedented access to the waterfront, public parks, the Fort-To-Fort walking trail and Fort Langley’s vibrant centre, Bedford Landing is clearly finding appeal to homebuyers young and old: to date, more than 150 homes have been sold in the community in record time. ParkLane Homes is currently selling homes in its Cedarmill phase, a collection of three and four-bedroom homes in the heart of Bedford Landing. This fall, a major launch party, the developer plans to unveil Greenway, a limited collection of larger luxury homes backing onto greenbelt.

Prices for the townhomes at Bedford Landing in Fort Langley start at $499,900 and at $624,900 for the single-family homes. For more information visit www.bedfordlanding.com, phone 604.888.2176 or drop by the sales centre at 23015 Billy Brown Road in Fort Langley between noon and 6pm daily.

Bedford Landing Community – How Far Along?

People walking the Fort-to-Fort Trail along Riverside Park at Bedford Landing often have a common question: How far along is Bedford Landing in Fort Langley? ParkLane’s multi-phased building program began in 2006 with the single family and row homes pre-construction properties that occupy the majority of the site. The 84 pre-construction Bedford Landing ParkLane rowhouses are now sold out, and just over 50% are occupied. Close to 30% of the 183 single family homes in Fort Langley’s ParkLane community are occupied and 50% are yet to be released. In a nutshell, construction of the single family Bedford Landing homes is about half complete. Waterfront at Bedford Landing is the latest residential addition to Bedford Landing in Fort Langley real estate and pre-sales for the apartments will begin this year. Along with housing, ParkLane has undertaken many site improvements. The west conservation area with trails, viewing decks and landscaping is now in place. Two children’s play areas have been installed in the Fort Langley real estate neighbourhood as well as the public parking along the south boundary of Bedford Landing community. The installation of the pedestrian bridge completes the scrubber marsh and portions of the Fort-to-Fort Trail are in place along with the river viewing decks. The distinctive triangular piece of land south of Billy Brown Raod is now being planned for the next pre-construction Fort Langley Bedford Landing home release. The remaining mixed use area of about 1.2 acres at the east end of the site is being considered as part of the community – wide waterfront planning process.

The Fort Langley Waterfront Planning Process

The Township of Langley has invited ParkLane Homes to participate in the Fort Langley waterfront study. There has been a long standing municipal goal to secure waterfront access along the river to link Derby Reach and Fort Langley; Parklane Homes is honoured to support this effort. The study area within Fort Langley includes a portion of Bedford Landing of 1.2 acres at the easternmost end of the community, as well as the Riverside Centre (Fort Pub building). The zoning now provides for a mixed use commercial and residential area connecting the Fort Langley real estate site to Glover Road and will also host the paddle sports facilitiy. The Fort Langley waterfront is a very special place, rich in history. It will host community events, paddling training and regattas, cultural and festival celebrations, tasty excursions and recreational amenities. Imagine being a Fort Langley or Bedford Landing resident, what would you like to see? Or a visitor to the waterfront of Bedford Landing, think abou the experiences you want to have. Consider these scenes you want to please: Sight. Sound. Touch. Taste. And let us know your thoughts! For ParkLane Homes, the waterfront Bedford Landing study is a highly valued opportunity to work with the community residents, businesses, recreationists, and visitors to ensure that urban design and land uses for this east section support Fort Langley’s broader goals.

Looking for Pre Construction Surrey New Homes - Cloverdale Real Estate PLUS Berezan Management $1.6 Billion Surrey Central City 70 Storey High-Rise

Is Surrey Central Real Estate District Ready for a $1.6 Billion Condo Development?

If you believe that the Shangri-La Vancouver downtown high-rise will remain the tallest condo tower in the Lower Mainland for a long time, you may be wrong. A proposed $1.6 billion condominium master planned development in the Surrey Central real estate market is now garnering a lot of news and headlines. Even with the downward trend in condo sales (especially pre-construction sales) in addition to housing values, Berezan Management Ltd announced on October 30th, that the Surrey businessman has proposed a $1.6 billion development in the Central City Surrey real estate district. This master planned Surrey Central City community will consist of approximately four million square feet of space over ten acres of prime real estate and will have a mix of retail, office and residential space. There will be five proposed buildings with five phases fro eventual completion of the Surrey Central City proposed master plan. Not only that, one of the condominium towers proposed by Berezan Management Ltd for this Surrey Central City site is a 70 storey high-rise that will become the tallest condo tower residence in the entire Lower Mainland, making the Shangri-La Vancouver tower a dwarf like miniature. Located at Fraser Highway to King George, the Berezan Management Ltd plans to purchase this bare land at a fifty million dollar price tag eventual build out of its five planned phases. The Central City Surrey real estate community has been a hot area for pre-sale condo purchasers as well as investors and first time homebuyers. With the recent stalls in the Sky Towers and Infinity at Central Surrey (by a foreign developer), the Berezan Management Ltd proposal for the $1.6 billion masterplanned condo development will probably go forward and will take fifteen years to complete. Construction actually won’t start until 2011, which is about half a year after most of the current pre-construction and under construction condominium units will be absorbed by home purchasers, so the developer is confident that these condo tower residences in Surrey Central City real estate will sell quickly due to rising demands past 2011. In addition to the 70 storey high-rise tower, the Berezan Management Ltd proposal for the Central City Surrey real estate development will also include three other residential towers that will be between forty and fifty stories in heights in addition to a fifty five storey high-rise hotel and office tower. An attractive feature of this Surrey master planned Central City development will be housing set aside for assisted living and other affordable housing units for low-income individuals.

Other Features of the Tallest High-Rise Condo Tower in Lower Mainland in Central City Surrey Real Estate by Berezan Management

Other features of the Berezan Management Surrey development will include public gathering spaces, greenery, entertainment and shopping mall in addition to luxurious suites. Two other large projects by Jung Development for the Central City real estate district have been delayed due to financing concerns (connection with Lehman Brothers in the United States). With Berezan Management Ltd looking to speak with the City of Surrey from now until late next year in regards to this Central Surrey condo development plan, they will also be seeking financing for construction starting in a couple of years. Although a few Lower Mainland condo projects have been either cancelled or put on hold, Surrey still attracts more than 1000 people per month into the city, so affordable housing and a range of housing types are still required to keep up with in migration. This proposed Central City Surrey condo tower residences will be one of the largest master planned communities in the history of the Lower Mainland. The Berezan Management Ltd company was last in the news for their bailout of the Hemlock Valley Resort ski community as they paid $3 million to receivership to assume control of this development.

BREAKING NEWS: Surrey SkyTowers Condos Put on Hold

As with a multitude of other Lower Mainland real estate developments on hold or cancelled, the SkyTowers Surrey condominium development is also not put on hold. With a foreign developer who hoped to be the largest Greater Vancouver condo developer, the Surrey SkyTowers condos are now on hold and temporarily stalled until the next rise in real estate interest hits the Surrey market. Building Infinity Surrey condos across the street from SkyTowers, this master planned Surrey condo community will stop all construction and pre-sales marketing for their developments until further notice. In addition, the same foreign developer has also now place the Infinity Surrey condo towers on hold as well. Construction is now delayed and pending, meaning that there is no definite timeline for completion of the almost finished Surrey Infinity condominium tower residences nor the SkyTower condos in Surrey real estate market. Right now, there is a lot of uncertainty surrounding the Lower Mainland real estate market, and with both the pre-sale Infinity Surrey condos and the SkyTower condominiums on hold now, this creates even less consumer confidence in the near future. It is not clear when and if the SkyTower and Infinity Surrey condos will start again or if they will even be completed. Located at 100 Avenue at E. Whalley Ring road in the Surrey real estate market, the Sky Towers presents 901 units to the market by Jung Developments Inc. Although both Sky Tower condo high-rises have been completely sold out, no construction work has actually started on this project that is on hold now. With credit crunch problems and financing issues, there is a possibility that these sold out SkyTowers in Surrey real estate market may not even break ground. Stay tuned for more information.

Surrey Infinity Condo Towers Put on Hold

Located at 13618 100 Ave in Surrey real estate market, the one thousand four hundred unit Infinity condominium towers by Jung Developments Inc. is not officially on hold. Marketed as the largest real estate development in Surrey ever, Jung Developments has not filed for protection from creditors and sought major refinancing for its Surrey Infinity condominium tower residences. The first condo tower at Infinity Surrey has already been completed and occupancy has happened already. However the remaining two pre-sale Infinity Tower condos are still under construction (they have zoning approval), but no condominium units have come onto the market just yet. MAC Marketing Solutions has handled the pre-sale advertising and marketing for the Surrey pre-construction Infinity Tower condos and says that another $100 million is required for Jung Developments Inc. to complete the two condominium high-rises. In addition, the timelines for the two remaining towers will likely be lengthened to an eventual completion of another year. However, for most interested parties, this is the least of their worries, as there is a possible termination of the two Surrey Infinity condos put on hold if the refinancing does not come through.

Limited Units Remaining at Sky Towers Surrey

Sky Towers is now down to its final 30 remaining units.

With over 870 units sold, Sky Towers Surrey remains the most prominent project in Central City. Many of the remaining 30 homes are among the best that Sky Towers has to offer as they were selected very early in the selling process and have since come back on the market.

A great selection of homes include:
Sky Studios from $199,700
Sky Towers One bedrooms from $256,100
Sky Two bedrooms from $315,900
Sky Towers Two bedroom Townhomes from $395,000

There has been steady activity at the Surrey's Central City Sky Sales Centre over the last few weeks. With only 30 homes remaining this may be the final opportunity to own in Central Surrey's superior high rise.

Feel free to contact me, or visit our Presentation Centre (open everyday from 12-5pm, except Fridays) located on East Whalley Ring Road. Due to construction on East Whalley Ring Road, the best way to access the Presentation Centre is via Fraser Hwy.

Our data indicates that the majority are purchasing a primary residence,” said REBGV president Brian Naphtali.

“There’s a great deal of choice in the real estate market for a range of consumers today,” explains Naphtali. “While 45 per cent of homes for sale are priced at below $500,000, there are also a significant, 37 per cent, listed in the $500,000 to $1 million range. Of the active listing investory of more than 11,000 residential properties approximately 18 per cent are priced above $1 million.” According to Multiple Listings Service data, sales of apartment condominiums in Vancouver increased by 7.7 per cent to 1,188 sales in September 2007 compared to September 2006.
