McLellan Mews at 16718 60th Avenue: A Cloverdale Townhome Community
Tucked along 60th Avenue in the heart of Cloverdale, McLellan Mews is a small, low-density community of 21 units built in 2006. For buyers who want the character of Cloverdale's historic town centre without the scale of a large high-rise or master-planned complex, a boutique building like this one offers a quieter, more personal living experience. You can view floor plans, current availability and recent activity on the McLellan Mews building page.
Why Small Boutique Buildings Appeal to Buyers
With only 21 homes, McLellan Mews sits at the smaller end of the spectrum for Surrey strata communities. That size brings some distinct advantages:
- Close-knit community feel: Fewer neighbours generally means a more engaged strata and easier decision-making on maintenance and budgets.
- Lower traffic and noise: Small developments tend to feel calmer than large complexes with hundreds of residents.
- Established build: Completed in 2006, the building is mature enough to have a track record, so buyers can review depreciation reports, minutes and maintenance history before committing.
Because strata size affects how costs are shared, it's worth reviewing the strata's financials closely. In a 21-unit community, a single large repair can have a bigger per-unit impact than in a larger building, so request the depreciation report, contingency reserve fund balance and the last two years of strata minutes during your due diligence.
The Cloverdale Location
McLellan Mews sits in Cloverdale BC, one of Surrey's most distinctive neighbourhoods. Cloverdale is known for its heritage downtown, the Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair, the Cloverdale Athletic Park, and a village-style main street along 176th Street. It blends small-town character with practical access to Highway 15, Highway 10 and the Fraser Highway corridor, making commutes toward Langley, South Surrey and the Port Mann area manageable.
Currently the Cloverdale market shows about 291 active listings with an average price near $1.25 million, reflecting the strong demand for detached homes across the area. That's exactly why townhomes and condos in established communities like McLellan Mews are a popular entry point: they offer a way into the neighbourhood at a price well below the detached-home average.

What to Check Before Buying at McLellan Mews
Whether you're a first-time buyer or downsizing, a few practical steps will help you evaluate any unit in this building:
- Review the strata documents: Look at bylaws (pets, rentals, parking), the depreciation report and recent special assessments.
- Confirm parking and storage: Verify what's included with the unit and whether visitor parking is available.
- Check the age-related systems: A 2006 build may be approaching timelines for roofing, exterior envelope work or mechanical upgrades. Ask what has been completed and what is planned.
- Compare recent sales: Look at what comparable units have sold for to judge whether a listing is priced fairly.
- Consider the commute: Drive the route at rush hour to understand your daily travel time.
