Living in Cloverdale BC: What the Listings Say

Detached houses make up 53. 1 percent of what is listed in Cloverdale BC, 136 of the 256 active listings. Townhouses come next at 73, or 28. 5 percent. Condos account for 24 listings, a 9. 4 percent share. The remainder splits between 16 other homes and seven half duplexes. The median year built is 2003, so much of this stock is now two decades old. The typical home runs 1,976 square feet of living area. That size skews toward families. Detached houses carry a median price of 1,399,850 dollars, while townhouses sit at 796,000 and condos at 542,950. Bedroom counts back that up: 66 three-bedroom listings and 42 four-bedroom ones dominate the mix. New builds are a smaller slice at 11. 3 percent. You get a range here, from compact condos to six-bedroom houses with a median of 1,450,000 dollars.

A 1,976 square foot home is the middle of this market, enough room for the three and four bedroom layouts that make up most of what is listed. That footprint shapes daily life. You are heating and maintaining a full house, not a starter box, and much of the stock dates to 2003, old enough to expect a roof or furnace conversation. On the strata side, the median fee runs 387 dollars a month. That covers townhouses and condos in complexes like Charlton, Harvest At Bose Farms, and Clover Park Gardens, where the fee folds into your carrying cost alongside the mortgage. At a median price per square foot of 511 dollars, a townhouse near the 796,000 dollar median sits below a detached house at 1,399,850. The gap tells you what your monthly outlay buys. A condo owner at 542,950 dollars trades square footage for a lower payment and shared upkeep. A detached buyer takes the larger space and every repair bill that comes with it. Pick the number you can live with each month.
