Living in Sardis South: What the Listings Say

Detached houses make up 65. 8 percent of what is listed in Sardis South, 96 of the 146 active homes. The median year built is 2005, so most of this stock is newer construction rather than older builds. Townhouses account for another 25 listings, or 17. 1 percent, with a median price of $679,000. Condos are scarce here. Only six are active, alongside a single half duplex. The typical detached house lists at $972,500 and runs about 2,092 square feet, working out to a median of $395 per square foot. New builds represent 21. 3 percent of the current market. That mix tells you what to expect. This is a neighbourhood built mostly for families wanting space, with detached homes doing the heavy lifting and townhouses filling the middle. The remaining 18 homes fall into the other category, priced far lower at a median of $326,950.

The median 2,092 square foot home gives you room to spread out, and at 2005 vintage you are not signing up for the maintenance headaches of an older house. Strata fees here run a median of $222 a month. That covers the townhouses and condos, where shared costs handle exterior upkeep and common areas. On a detached house you carry those costs yourself, but you also skip the monthly fee entirely. Day to day, this is a place where families settle in. Townhouse buyers around the $679,000 median get a smaller footprint with predictable carrying costs. Detached buyers at $972,500 trade that predictability for space and control. Communities like Malloway Village and Promontory Lake Estates show up repeatedly in the listings, with seven and six active homes respectively. Selomas and Parkside Homes At Iron Horse each have five. Iron Horse itself adds three more. Those clusters give you a sense of where the newer inventory sits. New builds make up 21. 3 percent of the market, so a fair share of what you tour will feel current, not dated.

Start with the price bands, because they tell you where the competition sits. Fifty-four of the 146 active listings fall between $750K and $1M, the thickest slice of the market. Another 38 sit in the $500K to $750K range. If your budget lands in either band, tour several homes in one afternoon and compare them directly against the $395 per square foot median. That number is your yardstick. A three-bedroom here runs a median of $762,400, a four-bedroom $899,000, so decide how much room you actually need before you fall for a floor plan. With 47 new listings in the past 30 days, fresh inventory arrives steadily. Book showings early.
