Discover Madrona: Family Townhomes in the Heart of Clayton
If you've been searching for a spacious townhome in one of Surrey's most family-friendly neighbourhoods, Madrona at 6785 193rd Street deserves a spot on your shortlist. Built in 2007 by Lakewood, this 59-unit townhome community offers something that's increasingly hard to find in Surrey: generous square footage, three bedrooms, and a real backyard, all within a well-established complex in Clayton.

Floor Plans and Layouts
Madrona offers a handful of different layouts, all in the roughly 1,800 to 2,000 sq ft range. For a townhome, that is a lot of living space, comparable to many detached homes and well beyond what most newer townhome projects deliver. Three bedrooms across multiple levels give families room to spread out, work from home, or accommodate visiting relatives without feeling cramped.
One of the real selling points here is the outdoor space. Many units come with a nice, large backyard, which is a rarity in townhome living. For families with kids or pets, or anyone who simply enjoys gardening and summer barbecues, a private yard can be the deciding factor when comparing Madrona to a condo or a more compact townhome elsewhere.
Why Clayton Works for Families
Clayton has become one of Surrey's go-to neighbourhoods for growing households. Its newer housing stock, planned streetscapes, and nearby schools and parks appeal to buyers who want a modern suburban feel without sacrificing convenience. You can explore more about the neighbourhood on our Clayton area page.
Currently, Clayton has around 150 active listings with an average price of roughly $1.318 million. That average is pulled upward by detached homes, which is exactly why townhomes like those at Madrona can be such an appealing entry point into the neighbourhood. You get the Clayton address, the school catchments and the community feel at a price point that sits below the detached average, with much more space than a typical condo.
How Madrona Compares to Nearby Options
Compared with other Surrey neighbourhoods, Clayton sits in the upper tier on price. For context:
- Cloverdale BC: 288 active listings, average about $1.249 million
- Sullivan Station: 229 active listings, average about $1.256 million
- East Newton: 230 active listings, average about $1.083 million
- Whalley: 694 active listings, average about $790K
For buyers who want 1,800+ sq ft, three bedrooms and a yard, a 2007-built townhome in Clayton is a compelling alternative to stretching into a detached home price bracket. Buyers who prioritize the lowest entry price may find more affordable options in Whalley or Guildford, but they will typically trade away space, outdoor area, or both.
What to Look For When Viewing a Madrona Townhome
Because Madrona was built in 2007, it is now a mature complex, and a little due diligence goes a long way. When you tour a unit, consider the following:
- Layout fit: With several floor plans available, compare how bedrooms, living areas and the backyard connect to find the one that suits your lifestyle.
- Backyard size and condition: Yard sizes can vary by unit, so check fencing, drainage and usable space.
- Updates and maintenance: Ask about renovations to kitchens, bathrooms, flooring and mechanicals, as well as the age of key components like roofing and windows.
- Strata documents: Request the strata minutes, financial statements, depreciation report and any recent or upcoming special assessments.
- Parking and storage: Confirm garage and visitor parking arrangements for the specific unit.
Who Is Madrona Best Suited For?
Madrona is a strong match for move-up buyers leaving a condo, young families who need three bedrooms and outdoor space, and downsizers from detached homes who still want room to entertain. It can also appeal to investors targeting family-sized rentals in a high-demand neighbourhood.
