55+ strata buildings you can buy in Pacific Douglas

The Greens at Douglas (The Greens) — 350 174 St (Pacific Douglas)

Townhouse complex, 83 units and built 2012 per a building directory, which also records the strata bylaws as including "Age restrictions, pets allowed w/rest." Two MLS listings state the age rule in terms: one describes "The Greens, a 55+ community in South Surrey" (72 350 174 St, (a rancher with full basement), and another states "One of the owners must be 55+ yrs" (66 350 174 St, MLS®), describing a clubhouse with party room, gym, theatre, pool table and putting green. The exact bylaw wording is proved only on the Form B.

Streets, schools and getting around Pacific Douglas

  • The City's Douglas plan area is approximately 61 hectares (150 acres), generally east of Hwy 99, west of Hwy 15 and north of the United States, bordered by the Agricultural Land Reserve and the Glades Garden Park to the north; the board sub-area's feed reaches further north than that old plan pocket, to 18 Avenue, 19 Avenue and 4 Avenue addresses, so the City plan area and the MLS sub-area are different geographies.
  • Health care: Peace Arch Hospital, 15521 Russell Avenue, White Rock, is a Fraser Health community hospital providing emergency, surgery and maternity care, open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — in the next municipality, serving this Surrey neighbourhood.
  • Where 55+ housing actually concentrates: in one complex only — The Greens at Douglas, 350 174 Street, in the sub-area's north pocket.

Local rules and plans in Pacific Douglas

The rules that apply across Surrey (zoning, suites, strata, land and taxes) are on one page: buying a home in Surrey: the rules.

  • Plans: the Douglas NCP's designations are history: The Douglas Neighbourhood Concept Plan process concluded in 1999 and its land use designations "have been superseded by the Surrey 2050 – Official Community Plan Update corporate report"; the in-force check for any Douglas lot is its designation under the Surrey 2050 OCP — Official Community Plan Bylaw No. 21900 (adopted Jun 15, 2026) — plus its zone under Surrey Zoning By-law No. 12000. The replaced OCP Bylaw No. 18020 is no longer current. Listings quoting a 1999 "Commercial/Residential" NCP designation (as the 172 Street assembly cards do) are quoting a superseded document.
  • Secondary suites in Surrey: one secondary suite may be permitted in a single family, semi-detached or duplex dwelling, capped at 40% of the principal dwelling unit's habitable floor area under Zoning By-law No. 12000; the old 90 m² Surrey suite cap is not a current rule — never state it.
  • Short-term rentals in Surrey: permitted — an owner must host from their principal residence and hold a City business licence at $358 per year (Zoning By-law No. 12000, Part 4 s. B.7(d); Business License By-law No. 13680, s. 60.1).
  • SSMUH: Surrey's small-scale multi-unit housing framework was adopted July 8, 2024: a maximum of 3 units on lots smaller than 280 m², 4 units on lots larger than 280 m², and up to 6 units on eligible lots of at least 281 m² within 400 m of a frequent bus stop, applying to eligible residential lots under 4,050 m² inside the Urban Containment Boundary.
  • ALR at the north edge: the plan area is bordered by the Agricultural Land Reserve to the north; an ALR parcel follows the ALC housing frame of one principal residence at a maximum of 500 m² plus at most one additional residence of 90 m² (parcels ≤40 ha) or 186 m² (parcels >40 ha).
  • Servicing caution: a 2007 City corporate report stated a City sanitary sewer system serviced about half the lands within the Douglas neighbourhood, flowing to the Douglas sanitary pump station.
  • Property taxes (city-wide): City of Surrey property taxes are due July 2, with a 5% penalty if not paid by midnight July 2 and a further 5% penalty after September 2.

BC’s 55+ rules (age bylaws, who may live in a unit, exemptions and rentals) apply in every strata and are on the BC 55+ strata rules page.

Good to know about Pacific Douglas

  • Any published Surrey 55+ count should be re-consolidated with The Greens and the open question about Camberley Green both on the table.
  • "Pacific Douglas" and "Douglas" are the same area under two names, and listings use both. The board name is Pacific Douglas; the City name is Douglas. The 55+ complex itself is branded "The Greens at Douglas" — a search run on only one name misses stock filed under the other.
  • The Harlowe presale card is labelled Pacific Douglas in its address line while its own listing text places the project in Grandview Heights — feed labels are a filing, not a survey.
  • The 1999 plan still quoted in listings no longer governs. The five-lot 172 Street assembly cluster quotes the Douglas NCP "Commercial/Residential" designation; the City states those designations have been superseded by the Surrey 2050 OCP, so development value has to be read off the current OCP designation and the Bylaw 12000 zone for each PID.
  • The adult-oriented complex and the 55+ complex are a few streets apart and easy to confuse. Douglas Point (17516 4 Ave, ranchers, gated, clubhouse) states it is not age restricted; The Greens (350 174 St) states one owner must be 55+. The two complexes look alike in a search thumbnail and are opposite in law.
  • Pacific Douglas outsold most of its community in September 2026 without publishing a price.

Pacific Douglas 55+ homes: your questions answered

What 55+ homes can I actually buy in Pacific Douglas?

One complex: The Greens at Douglas, 350 174 Street.

Douglas Point looks like a seniors complex — is it 55+?

No. A listing for a Douglas Point rancher states in terms "Adult orientated but not age restricted!" It is a gated rancher strata (built 2003) with no age bylaw — anyone can live there, which also means it offers a 55+ buyer no age-restricted resale pool.

Do both of us have to be 55 at The Greens?

The listing checked states the local form as "One of the owners must be 55+ yrs." Provincially, a younger spouse or partner of a qualifying resident is exempt in any case, as are live-in caregivers and legacy residents. The complex's own bylaw wording must still be confirmed in its Form B.

Are The Greens homes single-level?

Mixed in the listings checked: one unit is described as a "corner-unit rancher with full basement" and another as a two-storey townhome with the primary bedroom on the main floor. Main-floor primary living is the pattern, but a basement or upper floor is part of both listings — verify the floor plan unit by unit if stair-free living is the requirement.

Are pets allowed at The Greens?

A building directory records its bylaws as age restrictions with pets allowed with restrictions. Read the current bylaws on the Form B — pet rules are complex-specific and change by amendment.

Where is the hospital?

Peace Arch Hospital, 15521 Russell Avenue, White Rock — a Fraser Health community hospital with emergency, surgery and maternity care, open 24/7, in the next municipality south on 152 Street's corridor.
