Turning heads and capturing hearts, The Amazing Brentwood just keeps getting better. And with sales now underway for Tower 5, homebuyers are discovering for themselves how this trendsetting, master-planned community has become one of Metro Vancouver’s most sought-after neighbourhoods.

“The last two years have changed the way people interact with their home,” acknowledges Brenda Parris, marketing director with SHAPE. “Homeowners want more flexible designs, more luxury finishings, and more multi-functional features because their home needs to support a variety of activities—work, entertaining, dining, and relaxing.”

And it’s this new reality that sparked a dynamic reimagining of the long-established heart of every home—the kitchen.

She adds that the island is also amazing for everyday cooking and rolling out pastry dough.

Dimensions are huge—ranging from eight-foot-six to nine-foot-six, depending on the home. Brenda shares: “We actually ran a construction simulation model to ensure we could get island countertops this large through the door. In some cases, they’ll be maneuvered through the balcony or delivered before walls are built or doors installed.”

Cabinetry throughout is imported from Europe and boasts an unmarred, horizontal orientation—even the slim-profile hood fan is flush with the upper cabinets. “It’s a challenge making that work, but we didn’t want anything to distract from the sophisticated design and clean lines,” Brenda says.

Ask any chef and they’ll tell you the secret to a great kitchen, is organization. And these kitchens are sure to satisfy with plenty of intelligent storage space. There’s a concealed cutlery drawer, full-height upper cabinets, plus an abundance of pot drawers below. And here’s just one of the many details you don’t see every day—the toe kicks are made of aluminum, so they’ll stand up to the demands of the most enthusiastic culinary adventurer.

The Amazing Brentwood’s spectacular 15,000-sq.-ft. presentation centre and showhomes are now open by appointment at 4567 Lougheed Hwy in Burnaby. One- to three-bedroom homes are now selling with prices starting in the mid-$700,000s. To book your appointment, visit theamazingbrentwood.com or call 604.563.8386 today. Then get set to be wowed.
