Hazelmere has traditionally been a rural area comprised mostly of small farms on large acreages, but this area is changing. While much of it is zoned ALR (Agricultural Land Reserve) there is an increasing amount being rezoned for future higher density use. As a result, land values have spiked with the increasing demand for housing and amenities from people moving to South Surrey for it’s relative affordability, proximity to the ocean, and quieter pace of life. So while many investors are buying up large multi-acre properties as long term holding investments as South Surrey grows closer to the Township of Langley, there are still many smaller properties that offer the charm and benefit of country living at reasonable prices.
