Waterfront White Rock Property
As the saying goes: waterfront property will always appreciate, no matter what the real estate market will bear. Isn’t this absolutely true when it comes to waterfront White Rock real estate market over the past decades. From the earliest community to its revitalized urban centre nowadays, the White Rock waterfront property communities are among the most scenic, boutique and high-end developments in the entire Lower Mainland. Not only is waterfront White Rock real estate very luxurious, but it also comes at a price too. As one of the most expensive property markets in the Greater Vancouver area, maybe after just West Van, the White Rock waterfront real estate market is dotted with multi million dollar family homes along the water, luxury and boutique condominiums and high-end townhouses, many of which have great waterviews and possibly are located just steps away from the waterfront seawall. With a vibrant city centre and some boutique new waterfront projects coming up, White Rock real estate is going to see another boom in the coming years, especially because of its close proximity to the US border and the ever growing South Surrey community. The White Rock waterfront homes range anywhere from $1M for a big fixer-upper to large water front mansions and estate houses that can cost you more than $15M. These luxurious waterfront propery in White Rock and South Surrey are occupied mostly by professional families and some by celebrities and famous personalities. With an estimated thirty thousand new pre-construction waterfront and waterview condos and family homes coming to the White Rock real estate market in the next few years, the city will see the biggest influx of new residents in recent times. With this comes a more dense yet quiet neighbourhood while the waterfront White Rock property will remain the last cusp of country living lifestyle in this peaceful neighbourhood.

The History of White Rock and South Surrey Property Communities
Emily Post would advise: you dare not ask a woman’s age as it simply defies social etiquette. But a city on the other hand, wants to shout it from, well, the rooftop deck. And in the case of 50 year old White rock real estate, who celebrated a golden anniversary in 2007, these rooftop decks come with sprawling homes, and sea facing condos whose hugging hill terraced slopes rise steeply from a sun soaked shoreline. Back in 1957, White Rock real estate was the location and climate that helped define White Rock as a holiday destination; many of the early homes were cottages. With a population of a little more than 5,000 it was swelled to over 19,500. Today, the White Rock real estate district by the sea (borderd on the south by the US and Semiahmoo Bay – Coast Salish for “half moon” and on the north, east, and wet by the District of Surrey) embraces the same characteristics five decades later, both attracting permanent residents and remaining well positioned as a booming vacation White Rock real estate retreat. The White rock pier, as it is graciously yet affectionately coined, grandstands as the community’s lively social and recreational hub, stretching a half km of well trodden wooden planks. It stands in the warm, shallow waters of the Bay beyond Restaurant Row off eclectic Marine Drive and serves as a unique esplanade for foot happy locals and visitors. Restored to its current condition after deteriorating and destined for demolition in the 70s, the famous landmark has since been declared a heritage monument at White Rock Beach, also known as West Beach close to South Surrey real estate district.

Continue your stroll and follow the red brick road, actually a two km oceanfront sidewalk, and soak in the dramatic views of Mount Baker to the south, rising up out of Washington State. With agreeable and blamy climes, White Rock real estate seizes the most sunshine in the Lower Mainland and averages the lowest annual rainfall with 1,050 mm (41 inches). The mercury hovers around a comfortable 22 degrees in the summer and a tolerable 5 in the winter. Undoubtely, it’s hard to miss the white rock landmark that gave the community its moniker. The substantial mas tips the scales at 486 tones (think four blue whales) and has anchored itself along the rocky shoreline of waterfront White Rock real estate in South Surrey community. It was kept white with an endless assault of gull graffiti so much so, that 19th century mariners used it as a navigational point, visible in all weather. It reamins white today thanks to frequent applications of white paint courtesy of the city parks department. Likely an archaic glacial deposit receded thousands of years ago from the Coast Mountain Range, legend defies this science.

Here, several shopping malls and plazas within walking distance of one another offer a wide variety of specialty shops, sidewalk cafes, delis, bookstores and more. The popularity of the White rock waterfront beach community real estate of South Surrey district cannot be understated ,however, civic leaders trust that the city, over time, will gain acclaim for its vibrant White Rock town centre. “Over the next few years, we expect the Town Centre in white Rock area will continue to be revitalized through a number of new mixed use White Rock waterfront real estate developments,” reveals the Mayor. “Meanwhile, the area south of the hospital continues to offer new single family pre-sales White Rock housing options. Whether you’lre looking for a White Rock condominium with a view, a cottage by the beach or traditional family home, you’ll find it in waterfront White Rock real estate.” Independent from neighbouring Surrey real estate since 1957, local maps clearly outline the perimeters between the two: within the eight square km of White Rock real estate the streets are named, and within 110 sq km of South Surrey property district, the streets are numbered.
