Multi-faceted developer Red Boutique Properties has designed and built multiple housing forms, from luxury single-family residences in some of the Lower Mainland鈥檚 most exclusive neighbourhoods, to multi-family townhome developments that create instant communities.
Its , completed in 2023 in South Surrey鈥檚 Grandview Heights neighbourhood 鈥� home to Red鈥檚 鈥� were designed specifically with the idea of providing housing options for people in all phases of life.
While the absence of strata fees in this section of the South Village community was a positive selling point, versatility was a key factor that appealed to many prospective buyers.
Built with four dedicated bedrooms and a fifth potential one created as a den at the rear of the main floor, the design of these three-level homes has been roundly embraced. Parents with young or teenage children, parents with adult children, and even adults sharing the housing cost and living space with elderly parents have appreciated the multiple family configurations these row homes can accommodate.
Given the market is pricing some potential buyers out of the new home market, it makes sense to offer people such options, says Red鈥檚 managing director Jas Johal.
鈥淲e created the for everyone from people who want to retire and downsize, to families living with students. It鈥檚 a multi-generational community,鈥� she says.
But it鈥檚 not simply flexibility that has attracted people to these spacious homes. The same combination of 鈥渕odern farmhouse鈥� styling and high-quality finishings throughout that helped the nearby South Village townhomes sell out quickly is also built into the row homes, which are in essence a larger version of the design.
鈥淔or South Village we paid tribute to the heritage of South Surrey, with its equestrian background and farming traditions,鈥� Jas says. 鈥淧lus the location is unbeatable, it鈥檚 very walkable, and these are not your typical cookie-cutter homes.鈥�
Red鈥檚 South Village row homes have earned the company recognition from its professional peers, as a finalist for a Canadian Homebuilders Association (BC) 2024 Georgie award for Best Multi-Family Townhouse (infill) under 10 units.
An award finalist for various other projects over the years, Red鈥檚 painstaking attention to detail in one of its luxury home projects garnered another finalist berth, this time in the 2024 Homebuilders Association Vancouver (HAVAN) award category of Best New Bathroom.
Jas says the buzz created around the company with nominations is 鈥渆lectric,鈥� not only for the confidence it builds in the designers, tradespeople and office staff, but for the confidence in Red projects it can provide for potential buyers.
鈥淚t elevates the whole project.鈥�
