Burnaby Mountain’s SFU UniverCity is one of the most desirable places to live in the city. Atop this green hillside, the sweeping views of the water, mountain and cityscapes are stunning. This is where award-winning Intergulf Development Group presents Arbour –four thoughtfully designed buildings featuring condos, city homes and townhomes in this celebrated university enclave.
At UniverCity since its planning stages more than three decades ago, Intergulf built its first two towers Novo 1 and 2, back in 2004. Since then, Intergulf has completed The Peak in 2019 followed by Terraces at The Peak in 2020.
“We are excited to be adding to the Burnaby Mountain community, this being our fifth project at SFU,” says Sean Lin, vice president of sales and marketing, at Intergulf Development Group. “At Arbour, our three-bedroom townhomes are designed for growing families as UniverCity continues to expand. Students and faculty were extensively considered as part of the envisioning.”
Lin went on to say: “The one, two and three-bedroom homes include thoughtful amenity spaces for indoor and outdoor entertaining and a large focus on well-being. Arbour offers a rare opportunity for purchasers who are looking for quality, affordable homes in Burnaby and offers investors positive cash flow due to high demand from university students.”
Arbour
Overlooking Discovery Park, Arbour is a selection of 178 homes, featuring one, two and three-bedroom condos and three-bedroom city homes and townhomes with expansive rooftop decks to take in the sweeping Burnaby Mountain, water views and cityscapes.
Curated by BAM Interior, each home is bright and airy, highlighting oversized windows, quality wide-plank laminate flooring, and secure underground parking with storage lockers and bike rooms (condos).
Stylish kitchens include a Samsung stainless-steel appliance package complete with a five-burner WIFI enabled gas slide-in range, sleek cabinetry with wood detailing, as well as engineered quartz countertops with oversized porcelain tile backsplash.
The place to be during those balmy summer months will be the rooftop outdoor lounge.
Impress family and friends when you dine al fresco or enjoy a glass of wine around firepits with outdoor barbeques and comfortable seating. Then, take in a friendly game of chess on the life-size chess art piece. When it’s time to work out, head to the fitness centre, where the health and wellness amenity offers room to stretch and do yoga; while the indoor lounge with a kitchenette is perfect for your private gatherings.

Ideally positioned on the highest point, Arbour residents will have sweeping water and city views, while being close to schools and everyday conveniences such as Highlands Elementary School, SFU Childcare Society, restaurants, medical health clinics, a grocery store with pharmacy, numerous hiking/biking trails and more. With your community card, you can access Simon Fraser University (SFU)’s art gallery, aquatic centre, library, health and athletic facilities, and a very well-stocked bookstore.
Getting in and out of UniverCity is easy with access to Highway 1 and quick links to the SkyTrain network a short walk away. With the approval of the future SFU gondola route, getting to and from Burnaby Mountain will make living at Arbour much easier.
