Price, location key to the success of The Wex condo project in Langley
ROBIN BRUNET
The Province
The Township of Langley has always provided ample opportunity for responsible growth, and the Willoughby neighbourhood, in which RDG Management’s The Wex is located, continues to be the region’ s fastest growing, with a current population of 28,000 and an expected population of 80,000 by 2041.
So it’s no surprise that since its mid-November launch, The Wex has already sold over 50 per cent of its 94 condominiums, giving it the added distinction of being the fastest-selling condo development in Langley, on top of being the only condo project in Yorkson’s booming Willoughby Town Centre. After all, it’s in the name: THE Willoughby EXperience.
A lot of factors can be attributed to The Wex’s success, from affordability to efficient living spaces, but the appeal of the condos is inextricably linked to their surroundings. The first-time buyers and downsizers who already call The W ex home have discovered all that the new Willoughby Town Centre has to offer, now and in the future.
The We xis just steps from Willoughby Town Centre, which contains boutique retail, No Frills Grocer and Shoppers Drug Mart Boutique and Spa & Nail Bar, with more to come.
The Colossus movie theatres and Willowbrook Mall are a short drive away. Also nearby is Fort Langley, a mix of heritage and urban boutiques ina walk able setting on the river. Enjoy local wineries and craft beer at the nearby Trading Post.
In short, The Wex residents have the best of both worlds, truly giving its residents The Willoughby EXperience: urban convenience amidst British Columbia’s spectacular natural attributes.
The striking five-storey complex, with its West Coast-style spanning overhangs, oversized windows, glass balconies, and stone-accented siding, contains condos that have been described as “affordable luxury” (prices range from a remarkably low $279,900 to $399,900). The one-bedrooms right up to the two-bedroom-with-flex homes have nine-foot ceilings; solid core Cambridge entry doors; floor-to-ceiling cabinets in shaker or high-gloss panel style; main baths with square-edge cabinets and quartz countertops; elegant ensuites; and an accessories and appliance package that includes a TELUS Welcome Home kit, plus free installation and one-year free Optik TV, high-speed Internet with Wi-Fi, and rental of TELUS HD Digital PVR.
“The homes are going fast,” says Jamie Squires, vice-president of Fifth Avenue Real Estate Marketing Ltd. One two-bed/two-bath plan has already sold out; only a few onebedrooms remain available, and the two-bedrooms-with-flex are being snapped up quickly as well. This is understandable, considering an 858 square foot two-bedroom, onebathroom with a top floor view is available for only $344,900, or a topfloor two-bed/two-bath and flex is going from just $364,900.
Squires says :“While we’ re incredibly excited by The Wex’s success, we urge prospective buyers to lose no time in contacting us to learn how they can still be part of this unique lifestyle development.”
Open daily noon to 5 p.m. (closed Fridays) at 20829 77A Avenue Langley across from The Willoughby Town Centre.
