About
In collaboration with the community, EDG Homes, and the City of Vancouver, Averra Developments is proud to present an exceptional project in the historic Douglas Park neighbourhood in Vancouver, BC. This development consists of four townhomes, ranging from 800 to 2,200 square feet, and two detached carriage houses, each between 1,300 and 1,900 square feet. The project brings modern living to one of Vancouver’s most sought-after central locations, offering residents both privacy and accessibility in a picturesque neighborhood filled with mature trees and community recreation facilities just half a block away.
The townhomes, crafted within a restored, historic (1927) church, seamlessly blend heritage charm with contemporary design. With soaring 12-foot ceilings and oversized windows, the homes are filled with natural light and feature open-plan living spaces on the main floors. The sleek chef’s kitchens are outfitted with Fisher Paykel integrated appliances, a beautiful waterfall island, and quality finishes, perfect for both everyday meals and entertaining. The main level also includes a powder room and a cozy sitting area, making it ideal for relaxed living.
Upstairs, the bedrooms and bathrooms are designed with timeless finishes, while skylights and large windows flood the spaces with natural light. Thoughtful storage solutions throughout the home offer urban convenience and added luxury. Each residence includes a self-contained lock-off suite, providing homeowners with the flexibility of extra space for extended family or the opportunity for rental income.
Additional standout features include wide-plank brushed oak flooring, gas fireplaces, radiant in-floor heating, operable skylights, state-of-the-art security systems, and a 2-5-10 year warranty, ensuring long-term comfort and peace of mind.
At the north end of the property, two new detached carriage houses offer standalone, strata-titled residences, providing an independent living option while maintaining the sense of community within this remarkable development. This project masterfully combines history, modern living, and thoughtful design, enhancing one of Vancouver’s most cherished neighborhoods.
