Chilliwack is a growing city in the country. Its urban areas are surrounded by wide open farmland, and rimmed with mountains. Numerous lakes, parks, walking and bike trails and other amenities are close at hand.
On the former University of the Fraser Valley campus lands on Yale Road, with easy access to every amenity you want, you’ll discover Van Maren Group of Companies’ exciting new project – MidTown, the only master-planned multi-family community north of Highway 1.
“It’s been a long time since Chilliwack had a new, large-scale development on the Chilliwack side of the freeway,” says Eric Van Maren, co-owner with brother Bernie Van Maren. “This project is located halfway between the communities of Chilliwack and Sardis, and close to Highway 1, making it a very quick commute for those who work in Abbotsford and Langley.”
MidTown is adjacent to two city parks, a large school playground and a walking trail. Homeowners, especially young couples and active families, will appreciate MidTown’s walkability. If you need to travel greater distances, Highway 1 is only 1.5km away, and there’s regular bus service at the corner of Yale and Airport Roads.
MidTown’s modern West Coast architecture features Hardie Board siding, large windows to flood the homes with lots of natural light, as well as stone and wood accents.
MidTown has three phases: MidTown 1 comprises of 125 three-level townhomes with single or double garages; MidTown 2 offers 28 three-level townhomes with double garages and roof-top patios; while Midtown 3 will feature 34 four-bedroom single family homes with double garages. Each phase has plenty of visitor parking, and is surrounded by newly built streets and sidewalks.
If that isn’t enough to entice you, each home offers either a fully fenced private backyard or a rooftop patio for year-round entertaining, as well as spectacular mountain views, and lots of parking.
Inside, MidTown homes are showcased by well appointed floor plans, which are both functional and spacious, with a seamless flow from room to room. Each residence features nine-foot ceilings, with some master bedrooms showcasing 11 foot ceilings, laminate flooring on the main, high end carpeting upstairs, designer flat panel cabinetry, as well as flex living/dining room layouts.
The gourmet kitchens come complete with quartz composite countertops with finely detailed backsplash, soft close cabinetry, a full stainless steel appliance package and an island with overhead pendant lighting.
Within a short drive, you have the best that rural living offers – pastoral landscapes and roadside farm stands. In addition, the area is a haven for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts, offering world-class fishing, as well as numerous wooded and riverside hiking/walking trails.
