ELEVATED FINISHES & END UNIT APPEAL IN THIS BRAND-NEW TOWNHOME! There is something exciting about being the very first to live in a home, and this brand-new end-unit townhome at 197 Durham Ave stands out with its bright, open-concept layout and premium builder upgrades. A brick-and-vinyl exterior, covered porch, soffit lighting, and a stylish front door with a frosted glass insert and transom window make an immediate statement, while the attached garage with inside entry, 8 ft garage door, and an extended driveway add practicality. Smooth 9 ft ceilings, recessed pot lights, a 50" electric fireplace, a walkout to the backyard, and main-floor laundry with cabinetry and a hanging rod highlight the main level. Quartz counters, dual-toned cabinetry, an island with breakfast seating, subway tile backsplash, brass hardware, valance lighting, an undermount sink, and stainless steel appliances give the kitchen a high-impact look. The primary bedroom presents a tray ceiling, dual walk-in closets, and a 4-piece ensuite with dual sinks, quartz counters, a frameless glass shower, and a built-in niche, while the main bath carries through the same upgraded finish with quartz counters and a glass shower enclosure. The unfinished walkout basement brings in abundant natural light and offers an open layout with a bathroom rough-in, ready to be finished to suit your needs. Additional builder upgrades include wood-composite and tile flooring, upgraded trim and stair package, HRV, bypass humidifier, central-vac rough-in, and a 7-year Tarion warranty. Set in Innishore within a master-planned community with trails, bike paths, playgrounds, a 12-acre sports park, and Hyde Park just a short stroll away, this #HomeToStay is also minutes to schools, shopping, commuter routes, and daily essentials, with Centennial Beach, Friday Harbour Resort, golf, and ski hills all within 30 minutes.
