Brighouse is Richmond's downtown core, around No. 3 Road, Minoru Boulevard and Westminster Highway; the board (GVR) uses "Brighouse" as the listing sub-area name, and the City plans the same core as Brighouse Village, one of the villages in the City Centre Area Plan, described as the civic and mixed-use focus of the City Centre.

Brighouse real estate: your questions answered

Can I rent out a Brighouse condo long-term?

Yes — strata rental-restriction bylaws have been void since November 24, 2022 anywhere in BC, including the restriction element in Ascott Wynde's directory line. Flo, Seasons and River Green are recorded as rentals allowed in any case.

How old is the oldest condo stock here?

Regency Park Towers (Park Towers) on Minoru Boulevard: three 17-storey towers constructed 1971–1974, valued by the City as Richmond's first high-rise buildings — which is why the depreciation report and CRF balance on the Form B matter more than finishes in that complex.

Are pets allowed in Brighouse towers?

Building by building: Flo, Seasons and River Green record pets allowed with restrictions; The Paramount's listing checked records cats OK and dogs OK with restrictions; the Regency Park Towers MLS sheet checked records no cats and no dogs. Confirm the current bylaw on the Form B for the specific building.

How long is the SkyTrain ride downtown?

TransLink's published timetable (effective September 7, 2026) gives 26 minutes scheduled station-to-station from Richmond–Brighouse Station to Waterfront Station, and 15 minutes to YVR–Airport Station with a transfer at Bridgeport. Richmond–Brighouse is the terminus, so westbound trains start empty there.

Can I rent out an Ascott Wynde townhouse long-term?

Yes — strata rental-restriction bylaws have been void since November 24, 2022 anywhere in BC, including the restriction element in Ascott Wynde's directory line. The directory records pets allowed with restrictions; confirm the current pet bylaw on the Form B.

How old is the townhouse stock here, and what should I check?

Ascott Wynde was built in 1977 — the depreciation report (mandatory on a five-year cycle for 5+ lot stratas), the CRF balance and the minutes matter more than finishes in a complex of that age. The same discipline applies to the core's oldest condo stock, Regency Park Towers (1971–1974).

What is happening with the mall lands?

The CF Richmond Centre South site (~11 ha at 6551 No. 3 Road) was redesignated in part under OCP Amendment Bylaw 9892 around its redevelopment — views, traffic and retail around nearby towers will change over time.

Condo buildings in Brighouse

Brighouse is the City of Richmond's downtown core (the City's planning name for the same core is Brighouse Village). Quilchena Green is Terra Nova stock, never Brighouse, and is not filed here.

Flo — 7360 Elmbridge Way (also addressed 6888 Alderbridge Way)

Concrete high-rise in Brighouse, built by Onni, built 2008. The building directory records its strata restrictions as: pets allowed with restrictions, rentals allowed. Directory amenities: bike room, club house, elevator, exercise centre, garden, in-suite laundry.

Quintet Tower A — 7988 Ackroyd Road

Concrete high-rise in Brighouse, built by Canada Sunrise Development Corp., built 2013. The directory records amenities of elevator, exercise centre, in-suite laundry, indoor pool, recreation centre and sauna/steam room for this tower.

Seasons — 5028 Kwantlen Street (also addressed 5068 Kwantlen Street)

Concrete high-rise in Brighouse, built by Polygon, built 2006. The building directory records its strata restrictions as: pets allowed with restrictions, rentals allowed.

Regency Park Towers (Park Towers) — 6611 / 6631 / 6651 Minoru Boulevard

Three identical 17-storey concrete residential condominium towers along Minoru Boulevard between Minoru Park and the Richmond Centre mall; the City of Richmond's Heritage Inventory gives construction dates of 1971–1974, records that the first two towers were completed in 1972 opening as apartments and the third tower finished in 1974 as a stratified condo, and values them as Richmond's first high-rise buildings. Listings record individual towers as built 1971 and freehold strata. The MLS sheet checked records pets not allowed (no cats, no dogs) — listing-stated; confirm against the current bylaws on the Form B.

The Paramount — 6340 No. 3 Road (residential towers addressed 6320 and 6328 No. 3 Road)

Residential and mixed-use high-rise development at No. 3 Road and Cook Road by Keltic Canada Development: three 15-storey residential towers plus a 12-storey office tower. Unit count conflicts between presale sources — one states 546 total residential units (27 of them "affordable"), another states 536 market residential units. Year built also conflicts: current listings record both 2022 and 2023. Listings record pets allowed with restrictions (cats OK, dogs OK in the listing checked).

River Green — 5199 Brighouse Way

Waterfront low-rise condominium community at River Road and Hollybridge Way next to the Olympic Oval, by ASPAC Developments, built 2013. The building directory records 5 levels and describes Phase 1 as six condo buildings (5151, 5171, 5177, 5199, 5111, 5131 River Green) totalling 458 units — that 458 figure is the Phase 1 total across the six buildings, not the count for the 5199 address alone. The directory records its strata restrictions as: pets allowed with restrictions, rentals allowed.

Streets, schools and transit near Brighouse condos

  • Brighouse is Richmond's downtown core, around No. 3 Road, Minoru Boulevard and Westminster Highway; the board (GVR) uses "Brighouse" as the listing sub-area name, and the City plans the same core as Brighouse Village, one of the villages in the City Centre Area Plan, described as the civic and mixed-use focus of the City Centre.
  • Where condo stock concentrates: the No. 3 Road / Cook Road station core and the Minoru Boulevard civic strip. The Brighouse Village Specific Land Use Map (2031), amended by Bylaw 10190, sets the village's transects — Urban Core T6 (45 m), Urban Centre T5 (25 m) and General Urban T4 (15 m) — with the village centre at No. 3 Road and Cook Road and the Canada Line station and bus exchange in the village; the map notes maximum building height in parts of the village may be subject to established Airport Zoning Regulations.
  • Transit: Richmond–Brighouse Station is the Canada Line's terminus station, with a bus exchange, at the middle of the village on No. 3 Road. TransLink's published timetable (effective September 7, 2026) gives scheduled station-to-station times of 26 minutes from Richmond–Brighouse to Waterfront Station and 15 minutes to YVR–Airport Station, the latter requiring a transfer at Bridgeport Station.
  • Civic anchors: Richmond City Hall is at 6911 No. 3 Road; CF Richmond Centre occupies the middle of Brighouse Village (its south part at 6551 No. 3 Road is a roughly 11 ha lot the City describes as a low-rise, automobile-oriented shopping centre); Minoru Park, at the west side of the village, holds the City's civic recreation and culture complex, and Richmond Public Library's Brighouse (Main) Branch is at 100-7700 Minoru Gate.
  • Schools: Richmond Secondary School, 7171 Minoru Boulevard, is in the village, and Samuel Brighouse Elementary is the village's namesake elementary school (the Province announced in February 2026 that an expansion at Samuel Brighouse Elementary had opened). SD38 catchments are address-based with no middle school tier; on January 21, 2026 the Richmond Board of Education approved the catchment for the new Odlin Crescent Elementary School, which redefines where city-centre students attend from September 2026 — any specific Brighouse address must be checked in the SD38 locator.
  • Hospital: Richmond Hospital, 7000 Westminster Highway, sits at the north side of the city centre; Richmond City Centre Urgent and Primary Care Centre is at #110, 4671 No. 3 Road.

Local rules that affect condo buyers in Brighouse

  • Flood rules: new construction in Richmond is subject to flood construction levels under the Flood Plain Designation and Protection Bylaw 8204, within a city-wide dike system designed for a 1:500 flood event (dike raising from 3.5 m to 4.7 m). For ground-oriented units, confirm the flood construction level position and what it means for insurance and future alterations.
  • Richmond property taxes (city-wide rule): due once a year on the first business day of July — Thursday, July 2, 2026 — with a 5% penalty on any unpaid balance after that date and a further 5% penalty on balances still outstanding after September 1, 2026.

Good to know about Brighouse condos

  • Richmond's first high-rises started as rentals. The City's Heritage Inventory records that Park Towers' first two towers were completed in 1972 opening as apartments, while the third tower finished in 1974 as a stratified condo — the complex's strata history is not uniform across the three towers, which is a Form B and strata-plan question for any unit there.
  • Airport rules cap some Brighouse heights. The City's own Brighouse Village map notes maximum building height in parts of the village may be subject to established Airport Zoning Regulations — part of why heights step down across the core despite the T6 (45 m) transect at the centre.
  • The seniors cluster and the condo core were one combined development. Kiwanis Towers exists because the Kiwanis Society replaced an aging seniors complex on its site with two concrete towers, financed in part by selling a portion of the site to Polygon, which also built three market condominium towers on its parcel — the subsidized seniors towers and the market towers beside them have entirely different tenure.
  • The Paramount's own sources disagree with each other. Presale sources give 546 total residential units in one place and 536 market units in another, and current listings record the towers as built in both 2022 and 2023 — settle unit count and completion from the disclosure statement and strata plan, not from any listing.
  • Flood construction levels apply across Richmond and are not specific to any one building. New construction is subject to flood construction levels under Bylaw 8204 inside a city-wide dike system designed for a 1:500 flood event. Ground-floor and ground-oriented buyers should confirm the level position for insurance and alterations rather than treat it as a surprise.
  • The 55+ programming hub is in the park, not in a condo. The Seniors Centre at the Minoru Centre for Active Living, 7191 Granville Ave, in Minoru Park, is a 33,000 sq ft seniors centre for adults 55 and older inside a 110,000 sq ft facility — Brighouse's seniors infrastructure is civic, while its seniors housing is rental and care.

Townhome complexes in Brighouse

Streets, schools and transit near Brighouse townhomes

  • The Brighouse Village Specific Land Use Map (2031), amended by Bylaw 10190, sets the village's transects — Urban Core T6 (45 m), Urban Centre T5 (25 m) and General Urban T4 (15 m) — with the village centre at No. 3 Road and Cook Road and the Canada Line station and bus exchange in the village; the map notes maximum building height in parts of the village may be subject to established Airport Zoning Regulations.
  • The core's housing is otherwise condominium towers and townhouses in mixed-use buildings per the plan, with older low-rise apartment buildings and remaining single-detached pockets at the village edges.

Local rules that affect townhome buyers in Brighouse

  • A Brighouse page or listing using "Lower Landing" is using a name the City does not.

Good to know about Brighouse townhomes

  • Brighouse is the Richmond ground the city assembly does not reach. The downtown core's townhouse position (one 1977 complex) is invisible in the city-wide number.
  • Citation Drive is a cluster, not a complex. Ascott Wynde (8751), Belmont Park (8540) and the apartment product at 8870 Citation Drive are separate strata complexes on one street at the village's south edge — a search that treats "Citation Drive" as one building will merge three different stratas, ages and fee structures.

Lots and land in Brighouse

What trades here

  • What land actually is here: the plan framework is strata-led — the Brighouse Village map designates T6/T5/T4 transects for high-rise and mid-rise mixed-use development around the station, so the core's housing is condominium towers and townhouses in mixed-use buildings; older low-rise apartment buildings and remaining single-detached pockets sit at the village edges, outside the T5/T6 core designations.
  • Fee-simple lots — the form at the edges: the remaining detached pockets sit under Single Detached zones RS1/RS2 in Zoning Bylaw 8500 Section 8.1, outside the City Centre plan designations, with secondary suites under Section 5.4.
  • It is a redevelopment framework for an existing mall parcel — not bare land for sale, not a lot offering, and no lot count is stated.
  • The condos home counts 6 apartment condos, and the 55-plus home counts 0 known 55+ strata. Built strata stock is not lot inventory in any of the three.

Local rules that affect land buyers in Brighouse

  • City plans and zoning: Single Detached zones RS1/RS2 in Section 8.1 apply outside the City Centre designations, with secondary suites under Section 5.4.
  • Subdivision and servicing — Richmond Bylaws 8751 + 8752: subdivision and servicing for a Richmond parcel run under those bylaws — confirm Approving Officer approval, servicing (roads, water, sewer, drainage) and floodplain compliance with the City of Richmond for the specific application. No other city's servicing number governs here.
  • Subdivision within the ALR requires Agricultural Land Commission approval; ALR residences cannot be stratified. Caps: principal ≤500 m², suite within principal only, additional residence 90 m² (≤40 ha) / 186 m² (>40 ha).

Good to know about Brighouse lots

  • Airport rules cap some Brighouse heights. Maximum building height in parts of the village may be subject to established Airport Zoning Regulations — part of why heights step down across the core despite the T6 (45 m) transect at the centre.
  • The mall parcel in the middle of the village is the land story (Nov 1, 2026). The roughly 11 ha CF Richmond Centre South lot is described by the City itself as a low-rise, automobile-oriented shopping centre in the middle of a high-density village — its Bylaw 9892 redesignation will change roads, park, views, traffic and retail around nearby parcels over time.
  • The city-centre school catchment was redrawn for Sept 2026 (Board approval Jan 21, 2026). The new Odlin Crescent Elementary catchment defines where city-centre students attend from Sept 2026, with defined boundaries in the Board's approval — families whose catchment changed were to be emailed their address-specific placement; families whose catchment had not changed received no further communication. Any Brighouse address still needs its own locator run.

Duplexes and half duplexes in Brighouse

What a duplex looks like in Brighouse

  • The usual duplex form: The plan framework is strata-led — the core's housing is condominium towers and townhouses in mixed-use buildings under the T6 / T5 / T4 transects, with older low-rise apartment buildings and remaining single-detached pockets at the village edges, outside the T5/T6 core designations.

Local rules that affect duplexes in Brighouse

  • For the remaining detached pockets, Single Detached zones RS1/RS2 in Bylaw 8500 Section 8.1 apply outside the City Centre plan designations, with secondary suites under Section 5.4; inside the plan designations the City Centre transects (T6/T5/T4) govern form.
