Updated · By Jared Gibbons, REALTOR®
Quick answer
Jared’s verdict: Yorkson suits families who want a newer Willoughby street near the park and the middle school. The catch is most Willoughby Slope schools are already full, and the catchment map changes in September 2027, so check the address with SD35.

In my words
Jared’s take on Yorkson
- Who it suits
- Families who want a newer Willoughby street near the park and the middle school.
- What I’d tell a friend
- I’d point families to Yorkson if they want a newer Willoughby street around Yorkson Community Park and Yorkson Creek Middle School. The Township updated the Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan in December 2025. The catch is most Willoughby Slope schools are already full, and the catchment map changes in September 2027, so check the address with SD35.

Yorkson is the north-east corner of Willoughby, in the Township of Langley. Its neighbourhood plan draws the edges: Highway 1 on the north, 212 Street on the east, 74B and 76 Avenues on the south, and 203 and 204 Streets on the west, about 330 hectares (815 acres) in all. Council first adopted the plan in July 2001 as Bylaw 4030 and updated it in 2008, and the current version was adopted on December 1, 2025 with the Township’s new Official Community Plan.
The plan is written for about 28,000 people in roughly 11,800 homes once the area is built out, which is why so much of Yorkson is townhomes and low-rise condos rather than detached lots, and why construction is still going on in places. Its centre is the Town Centre at 208 Street and 80 Avenue. On MLS® Yorkson is not an area of its own: listings sit in the Willoughby Heights sub-area with the rest of Willoughby.

What homes sold for in and around Yorkson

In the twelve months to October 31, 2026, 554 homes sold inside it: 249 townhomes, 216 condos, 63 detached houses and 26 other homes, mostly duplexes.

What the Yorkson plan sets out
- A Town Centre at 208 Street and 80 Avenue, split into a core and an outer ring, with a high street of shops facing the anchor stores.
- Smaller commercial spots: low-density mixed use at 208 Street and 83 Avenue, and neighbourhood shops at the north-west corner of 204 Street and 80 Avenue.
- Four elementary schools and one more secondary school over time. The plan marks the Willoughby Elementary site for redevelopment as part of the Town Centre, with a replacement school required.
- Yorkson Creek, the main fish-bearing stream, with its streamside area protected, and a network of greenways along creeks, streets, 212 Street and the highway.
- A 15 metre natural buffer along Highway 1 on the north edge.
- Two protected heritage buildings: the 1931 Willoughby School at 208 Street and 80 Avenue and the 1937 Willoughby Community Hall.
- 208 Street and 80 Avenue as major arterial roads, with a fence along the 208 Street median to stop mid-block crossings.

- Groceries: Hakam’s Your Independent Grocer, 20678 Willoughby Town Centre Drive.
- Route 595 (TransLink) runs along 208 Street and 88 Avenue to Langley Centre and Maple Meadows Station. Route 562 uses 88 Avenue, and Carvolth Exchange to the west has route 501 to Surrey Central Station.
- Highway 1 forms the north edge of the neighbourhood.
Before you buy in Yorkson
- Ask what is planned next door. The plan is far from built out, so a vacant lot or older house beside a new townhome can become a building site.
- On the east side, check creek and greenway setbacks. Yorkson Creek runs through it, and the Township flags hazards around its creeks and greenways.
- If the home backs onto Highway 1, visit at rush hour. The plan’s 15 metre buffer is trees, not a sound wall.
- Compare strata fees and reports by strata plan, not by project name. Some complexes are split across several plans and addresses.
- For a new or nearly new home, confirm the home warranty and who pays GST, and read the disclosure statement for a presale.
Township-wide rules on property tax, zoning, suites and servicing are on one page: buying a home in the Township of Langley: the rules. Strata checks are in BC townhome buying rules.
