Morgan Crest at a Glance
- Developer: Benchmark Homes
- Year built: 2016
- Total homes: 36
- Property type: Single-family detached houses
- Floor plans: 3 contemporary layouts
- Lot sizes: Up to approximately 14,000 sq ft
- Location: 164 Street and 27A Avenue, Morgan Creek
Lot Sizes That Stand Out
The standout feature of Morgan Crest is land. Lots of up to 14,000 square feet are uncommon in newer South Surrey developments, where lot sizes have steadily shrunk. That extra space can mean room for a pool, a sport court, a detached workshop, mature landscaping, or simply real privacy from the neighbours. For families who want a newer build but don't want to feel crowded, this is a significant draw.
Contemporary Floor Plans
Morgan Crest offers three distinct floor plans, giving buyers some choice while keeping a cohesive streetscape across the 36 homes. Built in 2016, these homes sit in a sweet spot: modern enough to offer open-concept living and updated finishing, yet established enough that the neighbourhood has settled in, landscaping has matured, and you can get a real sense of the community before you buy.
Walk to Morgan Crossing
One of the biggest lifestyle perks here is proximity to Morgan Crossing, the area's main shopping and dining hub. Residents can walk to:
- Coffee shops for your morning routine
- Steve Nash Fitness World for workouts
- Grocery stores for daily essentials
- A wide variety of restaurants for casual dinners and date nights
Being able to run errands on foot is a genuine advantage in a part of South Surrey where most households rely on a car for nearly everything.
Recreation Close to Home
The new Grandview Heights Aquatic Centre is a major amenity for the neighbourhood, featuring Olympic-length swimming lanes, a waterslide, and a state-of-the-art fitness facility. It's a big draw for families with active kids and for anyone who wants year-round fitness options close to home.
When you want to get outside, the beaches of White Rock and Crescent Beach are each roughly 10 minutes away. Explore the White Rock waterfront and the Crescent Beach and Ocean Park area for promenade walks, sunsets, and seaside dining.
Commuting and Cross-Border Access
Quick access to the highway makes Morgan Crest practical for commuters. Whether you're heading across the border to the US for shopping or travel, or making the trip into downtown Vancouver for an evening out, the location keeps you well connected without sacrificing the quiet residential feel of Morgan Creek.
How Morgan Crest Fits the Morgan Creek Market
Morgan Creek is one of South Surrey's most sought-after neighbourhoods, with 84 active listings and an average list price of roughly $1.97 million. Buyers here are typically looking for quality construction, good schools, and a family-friendly setting. Morgan Crest's newer-build profile and large lots position it as an attractive option within this price landscape, particularly for buyers who want more property than a typical newer subdivision provides.
For comparison, nearby areas offer different price points and property types. Grandview Surrey has 271 active listings averaging about $1.64 million, while the King George Corridor offers a more accessible entry point with 263 listings averaging roughly $997K.
Is Morgan Crest Right for You?
Morgan Crest is a strong fit if you:
- Want a newer detached home on a larger-than-average lot
- Value walkability to shops, groceries, and restaurants
- Need convenient access to the highway and the US border
- Want family-friendly amenities like an aquatic centre nearby
- Prefer a small, cohesive community of just 36 homes
