Fortunately this shift has resulted in thriving new neighbourhoods, situated closer to the incredible outdoor living that makes living in B.C. so desirable.
The latest addition to Metro Vancouver’s sprawling urban market comes in the form of a new development in Langley called The Henley, which offers huge floor plans for buyers with smaller budgets. for one bedroom homes and low 400’s for 2 bedroom homes.
