Crestview at 1868 Lilac Drive — A Complete Guide to King George Corridor's Newest Townhomes
If you're searching for a brand-new townhome in South Surrey, Crestview at 1868 Lilac Drive deserves your full attention. Built in 2024, this boutique collection of just 18 townhomes sits in the heart of the King George Corridor — one of South Surrey's most practical and well-connected communities. With rooftop patios, double side-by-side garages, and generous square footage, Crestview is purpose-built for families who want modern construction without sacrificing space.
About Crestview — The Essentials
- Address: 1868 Lilac Drive, Surrey, BC
- Type: Townhouse
- Year Built: 2024
- Total Units: 18
- Unit Sizes: 1,237 to 1,850 sq ft
- Bedrooms: 3 and 4 bedroom layouts
- Parking: Double side-by-side garages (every unit)
- Standout Feature: Private rooftop patios
With only 18 homes in the development, Crestview offers an intimate strata community — a stark contrast to the large high-rise strata buildings common in nearby areas. For buyers who want new construction but prefer a low-rise, neighbourly feel, this is a rare find in South Surrey's current market.
Floor Plans & Layouts
Crestview offers several distinct floor plan configurations, ranging from 1,237 square feet on the smaller end to a spacious 1,850 square feet for larger four-bedroom layouts. Whether you're a young family needing a manageable starter home or an established household wanting room to grow, there's a configuration that fits. Every unit includes a double side-by-side garage — not tandem, which is an important distinction for households with two vehicles.
The rooftop patios are arguably Crestview's signature feature. In South Surrey's milder coastal climate, an outdoor rooftop space means usable square footage for nine or more months of the year. It's ideal for entertaining, container gardening, or simply enjoying the views above the treetops.
Why the King George Corridor Makes Sense
The King George Corridor runs along King George Boulevard between White Rock and the broader South Surrey commercial core. For families and commuters alike, the location checks several boxes:
- Quick access to Highway 99 for commutes to Vancouver or the US border crossing
- Walking distance or a short drive to major retail along King George Boulevard, including grocery stores, restaurants, and services
- Close proximity to South Surrey's top school catchments
- Minutes to White Rock waterfront, beaches, and the pier
- Easy reach of Morgan Creek golf and community amenities
The King George Corridor has matured significantly over the past decade, moving from a predominantly strip-mall arterial into a more mixed, residential-friendly corridor with new schools, parks, and transit infrastructure supporting its growth.
How Crestview Fits Into the White Rock Market
White Rock currently has 370 active listings with an average price of approximately $1,615,000 — one of the highest averages in the entire region. Crestview, as a newer townhouse product in the King George Corridor, represents a more accessible entry point into South Surrey's real estate market while still offering the quality and space that today's buyers expect.
For buyers comparing options, it's worth browsing the full list of South Surrey and White Rock buildings or using the interactive map to visualize where Crestview sits relative to schools, transit, and the waterfront. You can also search condos or explore all White Rock listings for a broader picture of what's available.

- Investors seeking newer townhouse product with strong rental demand in an established South Surrey neighbourhood
- First-time buyers stretching into the townhouse market who want new construction warranties and modern finishes
