The big sell: This three-bedroom townhouse has an end-unit position in Richmond’s Springfield Greene development, an owner-occupied community comprising 62 residences that occupy a position within the Steveston environs.

The West Dyke Trail is within walking distance and Seafair Shopping Centre is just north on No.1 Road. This particular home was extensively renovated in recent years with updates to the bathrooms, floors, kitchen, paintwork, lighting, doors, hot water tank, washer/dryer and appliances. The building envelope was upgraded seven years ago with premium Hardie board fibre-cement siding, new vinyl windows and patio doors. The home has two parking spots, a storage locker, and a monthly maintenance fee of $425.00.
