August 3, 2021 Channel: Queensborough’s 16 Modern Waterfront Townhomes 

The Queensborough area of New Westminster has proven to continuously increase in popularity in the real estate market. With its access to neighbouring cities and endless availability of parks, education, and entertainment, this area offers many home buyers a unique opportunity to stay connected to urban necessities while raising their families in a suburban location. Pennyfarthing Homes continues to grow their successful portfolio of over 3,500 homes developed with this upcoming boutique collection of townhomes in Queensborough – Channel.  

“You can’t beat this area of New Westminster. In addition to waterfront views, you are only blocks away from parks, tennis courts, playgrounds, schools, a community centre, and a library. You’re within minutes to major commuting routes such as Highway 99 and Highway 91 making your drive into Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby, and Surrey easy and convenient. And for those who transit, it’s only a 5-minute drive or bus ride to jump on the Skytrain,” Ryan Lalonde, President, MLA Canada.  

Edging on a calm stretch of the Fraser River, Channel by Pennyfarthing Homes brings a new way to living in Queensborough. With homes ranging from 1,437 to 1,624 sqft, Channel offers residents a modern townhome experience while elevating the perks of being close to the city. The boutique collection of 16 three bedroom waterfront townhomes delivers plenty of room to grow a family and entertain guests, with state-of-the-art appliances and finishing’s considered throughout each home’s design.

If traveling by car, Queensborough offers quick connection to Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby, and Surrey – all within a 30-minute driving radius. SkyTrain access is also conveniently available, with a short bus ride taking residents from Ewen Ave to 22nd Street Station. 
 

Additionally, Queensborough has quickly become a family destination neighbourhood with schools, parks, playgrounds, tennis courts, a recreation centre, a library, and larger homes for new and established families as well as easy access to shops and services just minutes away. Queensborough has established itself as an amazing place to raise your family and an attractive New Westminster neighbourhood.
