Opinion: Why We Need More Duplexes and

Semi-Detached Homes

Vancouver House Price Growth Forecast Doubled

for 2015: RE/MAX

There’s been much ado recently about Vancouver’s dwindling number of heritage houses. As

the wrecking ball takes out one after another of the city’s original homes – often in preparation for townhouse or condominium development – tempers are fl aring.

But some builders are pursuing a vision that meets both the City of Vancouver’s criteria to preserve our past and its desire to provide increased density.

Under the Heritage Retention Program, if the exterior of a qualify-ing heritage home is restored to its original condition, the developer may be granted the right to transform its interior into multiple residences. In most cases, there’s also an increase in the overall FSR (floor space ratio), meaning more buildable square foot-age – space that can take the form of an addition or even a secondary new building.

It’s a win-win solution. Since the increased density is virtually invisible

from the street, the neighbourhood’s single-family character is retained – few people walking through Mount Pleasant between Main and Cambie realize just how many of the homes that appear to be single-family are, in fact, multi-unit conversions.

NOT WITHOUT CHALLENGESHowever heritage retention is a niche

market that’s not for the faint of heart.“It’s diffi cult to fi nd suitable proper-

ties, getting through the permitting process is usually very time consum-ing, and even sourcing materials can be challenging because they must be his-torically accurate,” says Shaun Soon, partner in Chorus Developments.

“Plus you never really know what you’re going to fi nd when you start opening up an old building.”

Fitting an increased number of homes onto an existing property is yet another complication and typically entails moving the existing house for-ward on its lot. Jerry Rakher, principle of Vandwell Homes, explains.

“We’re waiting approval on a project in the West End that will require strip-ping the house to the studs, jacking it up, building a new foundation closer to the street, and moving the entire struc-ture onto its new foundation.”

The existing house will be then trans-formed into three separate homes and a brand new fourplex will be added to the back section of the property.

INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONSOne particularly innovative part of

Rakher’s plan is to also build a seven-car, underground parkade that owners access via a straightforward, no-frills vehicle elevator. “You’ll drive your car onto the lift, go down one level, then drive out and into your spot.”

Taresh Sachi, owner of Structure Developments, has completed six her-itage retention projects including a 1930s post offi ce/general store that was converted into a duplex. Like Soon and Rakher, he’s passionate about the benefi ts of heritage retention.

“From a developer’s point of view,

heritage retention is expensive and time consuming to do, but the reward is watching people get excited by what they see. In a city where you can easily pay half a million dollars for a condo-minium, this is an attractive, cost eff ec-tive alternative.”

Highland Estates by Morningstar

Highland Estates single-family homes by Morningstar can be described in one word:

luxury. Located in the highly sought after Burke Mountain neighborhood of Coquitlam, Highland Estates is close to urban amenities, shopping, schools, and for those nature lov-ers, close to awesome parks and trails.

Morningstar was the fi rst to pioneer a community on Burke Mountain in 2008 and Highland Estates will mark its 10th commu-nity in what has become a highly desired location to live. By combin-ing a quality build and incredible detail with an outstanding location, Highland Estates provides the pin-nacle of class and convenience and is considered Morningstar’s most exclusive single-family home neigh-borhood yet.

With 4800 square feet of living space to explore and make your own, the homes feature beautiful hardwood fl oors, glass stair rail-ings, dramatic vaulted ceilings, a linear stone faced gas fi replace, granite countertops, stainless steel

appliances and enormous windows that provide stunning views of the private surrounding greenspace. With elegance at every turn, these three-storey, fi ve-bedroom homes with a fi nished basement and three car garage makes Highland Estates a true gem in the Lower Mainland, with everything a homeowner could want under one roof. There is also the choice of professional designer colour packages to choose from so customizations can be made: add a butler kitchen, an outdoor fi re-place or even an extra bathroom. Highland Estates allows homeown-ers the choice to make their home their own.

“Neighbourhoods like Highland Estates are extremely rare and our perspective purchasers have been waiting very excitedly for this new neighbourhood to be available,” says Deborah Calahan, vice-pres-ident of sales and marketing for Morningstar. “Each week more and more potential homebuyers are signing up on our website in antici-pation to own one of these very exclusive estate homes.”

The single-family homes are rede-fi ning luxury with a refi ned interior style and impeccable exteriors with surrounding views and green space.

Adding to its list of Burke’s most prominent neighbourhoods like Kingston, Partington, Avondale and Belmont, Morningstar’s Highland Estates will once again raise the bar for exclusive single family home luxury. Superior quality, exception-al locations and incredible details create an unparalleled experience from a builder who’s constantly evolving to create the best single-family homes possible. Morningstar is an associate of Polygon Homes Ltd., one of the leading homebuild-ers in British Columbia. Since 1980, Polygon and its associate companies have built more than 23,000 homes throughout the Lower Mainland.

Pre-register for a sneak peak at the exclusive neighborhood of Highland Estates by Morningstar prior to the Grand Opening on May 2 at NOON. The sales centre is located at 3507 Hadley Wood in Coquitlam. For more information, visit mstarhomes.com
