Here’s a sneek peak of 4 bed / 3.5 bath plus a rec room (A plan) at Clermont, a new collection of townhomes on Burke Mountain in Coquitlam by Gardenia Homes. It’s the biggest layout I’ve seen in the community, and the extra level makes it feel like a different kind of home.

One of the most interesting parts of this home is that it feels super private because it backs directly onto the forest in Harper Park, yet it sits high enough up that you get views south down Burke Mountain.

The home:

4 bed / 3.5 bath, plus a rec room
2,000 sq ft finished, over 4 levels

Garage level: side-by-side double garage, bike storage
Lower floor: bedroom, rec room, full bathroom
Main floor: kitchen with island, dining, living, powder room, main entry
Upper floor: 3 bedrooms (primary with ensuite), main bath, laundry

The main floor is open from front to back. You walk in at the living room, the dining area sits in the middle, and the kitchen with its island is at the back next to a balcony. The lower floor works as its own zone, with a bedroom, a full bathroom and a rec room. That makes it a good fit for guests, teens, a home office or extended family. The three bedrooms and the laundry are upstairs.

Inside the A plan

Balconies off the lower, main and upper levels
Quartz countertops with a ceramic tile backsplash, undermount double-bowl sink, soft-close cabinetry and a stainless steel hood fan
Samsung stainless steel appliance package: French door fridge, 5-burner electric range with Air Fry, dishwasher and microwave
Laminate flooring through the living areas, with glass and wood stair railings
Primary ensuite with a frameless glass shower; main bathrooms with acrylic tubs
Double-car garage with a smart Wi-Fi opener and Level 2 EV charger rough-in
Fenced front yard

The numbers

$1,299,000
Clermont by Gardenia
3507 Hall Avenue, Coquitlam, BC

Here’s a full walkthrough of the E plan at Clermont, a new collection of duplexes and townhomes on Burke Mountain.

The home

3 bed / 2.5 bath
1,550 sq ft finished, over 3 levels

Garage level: side-by-side double garage, main entry.
Main floor: kitchen with island, dining, living, work space, powder room
Upper floor: 3 bedrooms (primary with ensuite), main bath, laundry

The main floor is open and bright, with the kitchen at the back, the dining area in the middle, and the living room at the front. There’s also a small work space tucked in by the stairs, so a home office doesn’t have to take over the dining table. All three bedrooms and the laundry are upstairs.

Inside the E plan

Quartz countertops with a ceramic tile backsplash, undermount double-bowl sink, soft-close cabinetry and a stainless steel hood fan
Samsung stainless steel appliance package: French door fridge, 5-burner electric range with Air Fry, dishwasher and microwave
Laminate flooring (waterproofed) through the living areas, with glass and wood stair railings
Primary ensuite with a frameless glass shower; main bath with an acrylic tub
Double-car garage with a smart Wi-Fi opener and Level 2 EV charger rough-in
Fenced front yard and a deck or patio

Heat pump heating and cooling
Hybrid heat pump hot water with built-in leak detection
Designed to BC Energy Step Code 3, with an insulated, airtight building envelope
Fibre-cement siding with wood accents and brick detailing, double-glazed windows, 30-year roof warranty

In the summer, places like Buntzen are full by mid-morning. Come October, it’s a completely different experience. Quieter trails, a few paddlers/hikers/dog walkers, and no parking reservations.

It’s one of my favourite things about living in the Tri-Cities. The popular spots don’t go anywhere, but they get a lot more enjoyable in the off season.

I’ve been taking advantage of the nice fall weather this year and riding to the local lakes a lot more. 35 minutes from my doorstep to the lake makes it doable as an early morning ride before work (or after).

Let’s keep the rain away a little longer.

I got a chance to tour this brand new 3 bedroom half duplex at Clermont on Burke Mountain. It’s the E plan from the Elm Series, and the layout is really well thought out. This is one of only two half duplexes available in the development, the rest are all townhomes.

I’ll follow this up with a full tour of the home in a few days.

The details:

3 bed / 2.5 bath
1,550 sq ft finished, over 3 levels:

Garage level: side-by-side double garage, entry, bike storage
Main floor: kitchen with island, dining, living, work space, powder room
Upper floor: 3 bedrooms (primary with ensuite), main bath, laundry

Plus: Level 2 EV charger rough-in, fenced front yard, deck or patio
Built by Gardenia Homes, anticipated occupancy November/December 2026
Quartz counters, Samsung stainless steel appliance package, laminate flooring, frameless glass shower in the ensuite
Heat pump heating and cooling
Steps to trails and parks, minutes to the future Burke Mountain Community Centre and Burke Village

One thing that stood out to me about this development (particularly some of the homes on the Harper side) is the mix of both views and privacy. It’s situated fairly high up on Burke Mtn so views south are nearly unobstructed, but it’s also tucked up against the forest with Harper Park right behind it, which won’t be going anywhere.

If you have questions about availability, pricing etc, reach out to me anytime.

Over the past few years, this East Van complex (Gardenia Villa) has undergone a top-to-bottom transformation, with more than $70 million invested in remediation. That means a full rainscreen envelope, new windows and doors, roof and balcony membranes, and extensive updates to the piping, mechanical and drainage systems.

Join me on the tour! This is a unique one - it’s a bright corner home (end home?) with windows on three sides, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and 1,040 sq ft. There’s a private deck for morning coffee, in-suite laundry, parking and storage. You’re also a short walk from transit along East Broadway, the SkyTrain and everything Commercial Drive has to offer.

If you’re a growing family, a first-time buyer, or just someone who wants more space without leaving the city, this home is worth a closer look.

🛏️ 3 Bedrooms

This one is a true rare find in Vancouver. It’s an end unit condo with only one shared wall, so you get windows on three sides. Natural light comes in from multiple directions throughout the day. With just one neighbour, it’s quieter and more private than most homes in the building.

It offers 1,040 sq ft with three bedrooms. The third room is about 10’ x 8’ and works as a true third bedroom, a kid’s room, a nursery, an office, or a guest room, without borrowing from the living space.

The primary bedroom has its own ensuite, the second bathroom is a full bath too (newly renovated), and the laundry (brand new units) has a dedicated room instead of being squeezed into a hall closet. The living and dining areas are generous, and there’s a private deck for morning coffee.

The practical details are the kind you appreciate once you’re actually living here. There’s an extra-long parking stall and a very large storage locker with real room for bikes, camping gear, and seasonal bins. Strata fees are $569/month.

The building itself has been through a major multi-year renovation. This is one of the largest rainscreening projects in BC history. That work, a multi-year process, included a full rainscreen envelope, new windows and doors, new roofs and balcony membranes, complete repiping, new make-up air units, and new site drainage. You’re buying peace of mind here knowing this work has already been completed and paid for.

3 bedroom | 2 bath | 1,040 sq ft | Built 1994 | $575,000

300-2533 Penticton Street, Vancouver. Coming to the market tomorrow. More details and full video tour to follow.

Co-listed with my colleague, Tyler Burrows | Home Tours - send either one of us a message if you’re interested and we’ll get you in to see it.

I got a chance to tour this 3 bedroom townhome a while ago in Citadel Heights. It’s now offered at an improved price so I wanted to re-share. It’s an end unit in Port Coquitlam with a flex room downstairs that could easily work as a 4th bedroom, home gym, or office.

One of the things I love about this area is that it backs onto a greenbelt and a stream, and it’s super close to Mary HIll bypass so you can minimize traffic getting to the highway.

You have to see it in person to get a real sense this layout.

The details:

3 bed / 3 bath
1,444 sq ft finished, over 3 levels:

Lower floor: flex room, foyer
Main floor: kitchen, dining, living
Upper floor: 3 bedrooms, primary with ensuite and walk-in closet

Plus: private patio, fenced yard, carport & garage
Built in 2019, open-concept with 9-ft ceilings and big windows throughout
Freehold strata, pet friendly (up to 2 dogs, 2 cats, or 1 of each)
Maintenance fee: $413.09/month (covers garbage, gardening, management)
Close to trails, shopping, and schools and a nice, family-friendly complex

List price: $879,000
MLS® R3163585
6-1818 Harbour Street, Port Coquitlam, BC V3B 1A8
