Avani Centre with its shimmering curtain wall promises to be a visually stunning addition to Surrey City Centre. But one of the most remarkable attributes of this 30-storey residentia­l tower is not the architectu­ral detail per se, but that its developer, the Avani Investment Group, has decided to establish its head office in the building.

This makes Avani Centre the only new tower in the province to accommodat­e its developer, and in addition to giving residents easy access to the group’s team of

profession­als if desired, it also demonstrat­es the company’s confidence in the high quality this particular project offers.

Jamie Squires, vice-president of Fifth Avenue Real Estate Marketing Ltd., says, “They’re standing behind their work. Although this is rare in the residentia­l tower market, it’s not surprising to anyone who has found

out about the large scope of unique benefits this building offers prospectiv­e buyers.”

For starters, the tower, which will act as a gateway landmark on the southern approach to Surrey City Centre, sits atop a seven-storey Hiltonbran­ded hotel; and while the Hilton is independen­tly owned and operated (meaning, no financial impact to the residentia­l strata corporatio­n), “the living units of Avani have a higher appreciati­on rate than traditiona­l standalone residentia­l towers,” according to Squires.

The hotel also contribute­s to the security-minded owner’s peace of mind, given that it is open 24/7 and hotel-related activity on the street is constant (although not a disturbanc­e even to first-level residents, who are actually on the eighth storey of the building).

Plus, Avani residents can entertain guests in the hotel’s proposed wine bar or exercise in its fitness centre or swimming pool, (for a low monthly membership, so they only have to pay for what they use). This is in addition to their own exclusive amenities, including an enclosed dog run on the tower rooftop deck that even has an outdoor yoga platform, barbecue kitchen and fire pit.

Just as Hilton expects great success from being located in a new and vibrant urban community, Avani residents have direct access to new shops and services, the tranquilit­y of nearby Holland Park, as well as the King George SkyTrain station at their doorstep.

As for the impeccable residences themselves, they range from studios at 349 square feet up to three bedroom units at 1,232 square feet, each with fully covered decks (some up to 200 square feet), all with natural gas barbecue hook ups, “so they can be enjoyed year-round,” says Squires.

Giraffe Design has made these homes visually distinct by using gold and silver colour schemes, and each unit boasts clean, angular lines with an abundance of warm wood and natural stone features and floor to ceiling windows to take in the vast views

Avani Centre is now selling, and Squires urges prospectiv­e buyers to register now and visit the presentati­on centre, which features two full designer display homes.

The presentati­on centre is located at 13586 98 Ave, Surrey, B.C. and is open daily noon to 5pm, closed Fridays.
