If you're searching for a newer, spacious townhome in one of Surrey's most established and family-friendly neighbourhoods, Headwater deserves a close look. Located at 17458 100 Avenue in Fraser Heights, this boutique development delivers the kind of thoughtful design and practical layout that growing families are after — without the compromises that come with older buildings.

About Headwater
Headwater was completed in 2023 and consists of 39 townhome units, making it an intimate, low-density community rather than a sprawling complex. That's a meaningful distinction in Fraser Heights — fewer units means less traffic in and out, quieter shared spaces, and a stronger sense of community among residents.
The homes themselves are configured as 3 and 4 bedroom + den layouts, which is a rarity in the current market. With so much of Surrey's new inventory skewing toward compact 1 and 2 bedroom condos, Headwater stands out as a genuine option for families who need dedicated office space, a guest room, or room to grow.
Interior Features Worth Noting
Headwater's interiors were designed with modern liveability in mind. Key features include:
- 9-foot ceilings throughout, giving each floor an open, airy feel
- Wide plank flooring that's both stylish and durable — practical for families with kids or pets
- Large windows that bring in natural light and help the spaces feel larger than the square footage alone would suggest
- Functional den spaces included in floor plans — ideal for remote work or flex use
These finishes align well with what buyers are expecting from 2023-built product, and the quality gap between Headwater and resale townhomes from the 2010s or earlier is significant.
Location: Fraser Heights at Its Best
Fraser Heights is one of Surrey's quieter, more established neighbourhoods — known for its tree-lined streets, strong school catchments, and proximity to key transit and highway corridors. Headwater's position on 100 Avenue puts it in a sweet spot:
- 10 minutes to Guildford Town Centre — one of Metro Vancouver's major shopping destinations, with Walmart, T&T Supermarket, and hundreds of retailers
- Quick Highway 1 access — ideal for commuters heading into Burnaby, Vancouver, or the Fraser Valley
- Close to parks, trails, and green space that Fraser Heights is known for
- Well within reach of the Guildford and Fleetwood Tynehead areas for additional shopping and services
For families who want suburban calm without being isolated from amenities, this location hits the mark. You can also explore the area on our interactive map to get a better sense of what surrounds the development.
Who Is Headwater Right For?
Headwater is purpose-built for families and upsizers. If you're currently in a 2-bedroom condo and feeling the squeeze, or if you're relocating to Surrey from elsewhere in Metro Vancouver and need the kind of square footage that condos simply can't offer, a 3 or 4 bedroom townhome in a 2023-built community is one of the more compelling options on the market right now.
It's also worth noting that Fraser Heights has historically held its value well compared to some of Surrey's higher-density corridors. The neighbourhood's low turnover and family-oriented character tend to support stable pricing over the long term — an important consideration for buyers thinking about resale.
Current Market Context
Surrey's townhome and single-family market remains active, and newer product like Headwater is in demand. Buyers looking at Fraser Heights are often comparing options in nearby areas like Clayton and Sullivan Station, where newer townhome communities have also been popular. That said, the 39-unit scale of Headwater means inventory moves quickly when units become available.
