Some recreational develop-ers link real estate to golf courses, others to skiing,
water sports or tennis courts. At the Creekside Mills at Cultus Lake, the attraction is a work-ing farm, some of it Agricultural Reserve Land (ALR) that sur-rounds the 129 detached houses.
“We’ve incorporated 10 acres of recreational agricultural land where homeowners can enjoy an edible landscape includ-ing a community garden, fruit orchards, livestock area, berry fi elds, and then sell the fruits of their labour at our farmers market or bring it back home to eat,” explained Steven Van Geel, sales director at Creekside Mills at Cultus Lake and founder of Frosst Creek Developments.
Agricultural InspirationThe inspiration for Creekside
Mills is an 80-acre family farm that had operated for 50 years near Cultus Lake. Only a small portion of the land was in BC’s ALR. Frosst Creek purchased the farm and was allowed to take the 4.4 acres out of the ALR, but replaced it with about 10 acres
that is now deemed agricultural land.
“We have incorporated the ALR land around the development,” Van Geel said, referring the con-cept as an “agrihood.”
Creekside Mills, a bare-land strata, gated community, will also have full-time staff to main-tain the farmland and lifestock, and will off er educational pro-grams and workshops to children about raising plants and animals. Residents will be encouraged to harvest fruit and vegetables, operate their own community garden and even get fresh eggs from a hen house, Van Geel said.
“We want to bring the farm back to life,” he said.
A First for BCWhile linking new residential
developments to farming has been done in the United States, Van Geel said Creekside Mills is the fi rst such project he knows of in BC.
The project’s strata fees are around $180 per month, which will help pay for the farm opera-tions, a recreation centre and community swimming pools,
according to Van Geel.The plan is to roll Creekside
Mills out in two phases over the next two to three years, with the farm maturing around it.
“I was raised on farm,” Van Geel said, “and I think a lot of families would like their children to experience it.”
According to a 2014 study conducted by Surrey-based Fifth Ave Real Estate Marketing Ltd., 80 per cent of respondents found the concept of recreation-al agriculture as an attractive amenity they would want near their home.
So far, six homes in the fi rst phase have sold – two of them to young families – though the
offi cial sales launch won’t be held until mid-October. Prices for two-bedroom ranchers start
at $500,000, with two-storey, three-bedroom houses from $600,000, Van Geel said.

Longtime local residents Jim and Kathy Clarke watched with interest as Tsawwassen Springs masterplanned
community came to life.“We weren’t even thinking about mov-
ing, although we are now empty nesters,” says Jim Clarke. “But we’d been watching the development and gradually we became more interested.” Impressed with the qual-ity and beauty of the natural surroundings, they decided to check out the show home.
“The location was very important to us but it was more than that … the quality construction really got me,” he says, adding his company works with the construction industry. “We also love the fact that many young families have bought here as well.” The couple soon found themselves buying a three-bedroom sub-penthouse in Phase Two.
“My wife Kathy loves the open-concept kitchen, the high ceilings and big decks,” he says. “We have great views of the bluff and
of the golf course. We also like being close to the ferry terminal, the security of the com-munity and the turnkey lifestyle.”
Welcome to Phase 3 of Shato Holdings Ltd’s masterplanned community; Tsawwassen Springs. The six-storey concrete building will feature 90 residences, ranging from 553-square-foot studios up to more than 2600 square feet of penthouse living with oversized private rooftop patios.
“We listened to feedback from buyers in Phase One and Two and took the best of what they told us for Phase Three,” says Sarah Toigo, Director, Sales and Marketing for the project.
The residences feature nine-foot ceilings (11 feet on the sub-penthouse level, 12 feet in the penthouses), engineered hardwood fl ooring, fl oor-to-ceiling windows, master bedrooms that accommodate a kingsize bed, as well as gourmet kitchens with a premium stainless-steel appliance package, granite
countertops and islands (in select condos).The homes also come standard with geo-
exchange heating, air conditioning and hot water on demand, solar panels to off set maintenance fees and one year of free Telus HD/TV and high-speed internet services.
Spacious decks invite outdoor entertain-ing at its best, with North Shore mountain, water and golf course views included.
Nestled among walking trails and in close proximity to the ocean, Tsawwassen Springs sits on 137 acres in the midst of the Tsawwassen Springs Golf Course. The buzz surrounding this enclave has attract-ed investors including the likes of Michael Buble and record producer Bruce Allen. Set to open this fall, Pat Quinn’s Restaurant & Bar (named after the NHL legend) overlooks the fairways of Tsawwassen Springs.
For nearly fi ve decades, the award-win-ning Vancouver-based builder, founded by Peter C. Toigo of the White Spot restaurant
chain, has built a reputation for innovative design combined with outstanding quality.
Right now, Tsawwassen Springs is off er-ing limited time incentives: cash entice-ments for smaller condos (based on pur-chase price), and double side-by-side car garage for larger condos.
These stylish contemporary condos start at $299,900 and include one parking stall with electric charger for a golf cart or elec-tric car, secured parking and storage. Larger condos come with two parking stalls.
Tsawwassen Springs Sales Centre show home (the 1600-square-foot corner condo) is located at 111-5099 Springs Blvd. Both are open Tuesday to Sunday, from noon to 5 pm.
