Zenterra Developments has announced the groundbreaking of Atlin + Bute, the first two buildings in its master-planned community in Surrey’s West Clayton neighbourhood. This milestone marks the beginning of a new transit-oriented community that blends urban vibrancy with the comforts of suburban living.
Given how many residential construction projects have stalled, this is a significant accomplishment. This was made possible following Zenterra’s successful sales launch, which sold enough homes to green light construction.
“The market has cooled, but what we’re seeing is that well-built homes, priced appropriately and located in desirable areas are still selling. Buyers are more selective right now, and that’s understandable. But they continue to show strong interest when the right home comes along.” — Derek Fenton, VP of Sales and Marketing, Zenterra Developments.
Located just steps from the future Hillcrest–184 Street SkyTrain Station, Atlin + Bute offer a collection of studios, one, two and three-bedroom homes, ranging from 445 to 983 square feet, with prices from $349,990 to $744,990.
"One of the reasons we're able to offer homes at such competitive prices is that we started acquiring this land 15 years ago. That foresight is what lets us bring genuine value to buyers today," said Fenton.
Homes at Atlin + Bute are designed with everyday livability in mind, featuring nine-foot ceilings, cordless vacuum charging stations, in-suite laundry, built-in closet organizers, and gas BBQ hookups on every balcony or patio. Kitchens go beyond function, they’re designed to be part of daily life, with sleek white marbled quartz countertops, minimalist flat-panel cabinetry, and premium Samsung appliances, including a five-burner gas range.
Zenterra is currently offering a range of buyer incentives, including air conditioning via mini-split systems in bedrooms and living areas, vinyl plank flooring throughout, a storage locker, and a 0% assignment fee.
Atlin + Bute offer more than just a place to live; this community offers a lifestyle with an extensive amenity package spanning over 30,000 square feet. The rooftop patios are the centrepiece, built for resort-level relaxation, with sweeping views of the North Shore mountains, along with gas fire pits, lounge seating, BBQ and picnic areas, bocce ball turf, and community gardens. The indoor amenities include a games room, party lounge, coworking space, and fitness centre with state-of-the-art equipment. The community also includes an on-site daycare with priority access for residents.
Connectivity is a key advantage. Atlin + Bute are located just three blocks from the future SkyTrain station, expected to be complete in early 2029, providing direct access from Langley City to Waterfront Station in Downtown Vancouver. Residents will be able to walk to transit in under 10 minutes. For drivers, the location offers quick access to Highway 1, the new 72nd Avenue extension, and the U.S. border. Shopping, dining, a new community centre, and recreation are all close at hand.
The neighbourhood continues to see significant investment, including the new Cloverdale hospital currently under construction, which will feature a major regional cancer centre. The community also plans to build two new schools, while the catchment high school, École Salish Secondary, opened in 2018 and offers a French Immersion program.
Atlin + Bute at Clayton Crest is being developed by Zenterra Developments, a Surrey-based company with more than 30 years of industry experience. The company has been recognized as Multi-Family Home Builder of the Year at the Canadian Home Builders’ Association BC Awards for 11 consecutive years, including winning in 2025, and has built a reputation for delivering high-quality, livable communities.
Atlin + Bute at Clayton Crest is scheduled for completion in Spring 2028. There is still a great selection of homes available for purchase. Zenterra's Presentation Centre and Showhome are located at #30-2411 160th Street in South Surrey and is open daily from 12:00 to 5:00 (closed Fridays).
