Sensational in South Surrey

By: Susan M Boyce

SOPHISTICATED AND DRAMATICALLY EYE-CATCHING, it’s the residence South Surrey homebuyers have been waiting for. On September 27th, the wait was over when Adagio officially began selling homes from the second building.

“Response has been absolutely amazing — even more than we anticipated,” says sales manager Sandra Miller. “People are absolutely wowed by the aesthetics of the building itself — especially when it’s lit up at night. I’ve had so many people tell me they were walking past in the evening, and our first building looked so stunning they just had to come back to find out more. And once people actually live here, they seem to become ambassadors both for Adagio and for Boffo Developments.”

“Because Boffo is both the developer and the builder, you know they’re going to build every home as if they were building it for themselves.” – SANDRA MILLER

She recounts a story about one couple who lived in an early Boffo building in North Burnaby and have now purchased at Adagio. “They moved to a single-family home while they raised a family, but they were absolutely adamant that they were going to live in a Boffo building again once the kids were grown up. They wanted to come to South Surrey because it’s sunnier here, so when they heard about Adagio it was an incredibly simple decision.”

QUALITY YOU DESERVE

“Because Boffo is both the developer and the builder, you know they’re going to build every home as if they were building it for themselves,” Sandra notes. “There are so many little details that you don’t necessarily think of until you’re actually living in your new home: things like a built-in wine fridge, overheight nine-foot ceilings throughout, large portrait windows, and not only a five-burner gas range but an outdoor gas hook up on every balcony.”

Naturally kitchens are dazzling and sure to bring out the inner Iron Chef — expansive counters and centre islands, 36-inch counter-depth fridge with icemaker, even a side cupboard sized specifically for cookie trays — sweet.

New for this release, Sandra adds, will be a brand new floorplan with the round patio/balcony that was a perennial favourite at Tramonto in Burnaby.
And how’s this for going above and beyond to ensure homebuyer satisfaction? “We’re currently working with a purchaser to combine two of our penthouse home into a single, custom suite of over 2,300 square feet,” Sandra says. “It’s going to be an exceptional space, and certainly not something many developers would be willing to do.”
 

EXPERIENCE LIFE

Amenities are, by design, perfect for the diverse range of buyers who will call this community home. There’s the chef’s demonstration kitchen in the lounge/amenity space for when you’re really kicking your culinary skills into high gear for a larger group of friends and family. Get your heart rate up in the fully equipped fitness centre before relaxing in the steam room. Then perhaps meet friends for a movie or a game of pool in the residents’ fireside lounge.

Then there’s Adagio’s interaction with the great outdoors. “The courtyard is so cool,” Sandra says. “We’ve retained many of the mature trees and in addition to the terraces and socializing areas, there are a series of pathways to secret garden areas. When you open up the door from the lounge/ amenity area, it’s like you’ve just expanded the entire space into a private park.”

CLOSE TO WHAT COUNTS

While there’s plenty to keep you entertained and relaxed right at home, when you’re ready for shopping or a night on the town, Adagio’s got you covered too. “This is an incredibly central location,” Sandra says. “It’s within walking distance to Semiahmoo and only a five-minute drive to Grandview Corners or Morgan Crossing, but you still feel like you’re in an exclusive, very private enclave. You can be at the beach or the White Rock Promenade in about 10 minutes, and access to Vancouver, YVR, and the US border is excellent.”

Adagio offers a diverse range of floorplans ranging from 784 square-foot one-bedroom and den to spacious three bedroom with over 1,279 square feet of exceptional living. Presentation centre and display homes are open noon to 5 p.m. daily (except Fridays) at #101 – 15360 – 20th Avenue in South Surrey.
