What kind of homes are in Central BN?

There is no single housing type in Central BN. The active listings run half duplexes at 60%, detached houses at 35% and condos at 5%, which means two buyers with the same budget can end up shopping for very different homes on the same streets.

Construction dates are spread out. The median home for sale dates to 2016, with most of the market falling between 1961 and 2026, so condition and updates vary a lot from listing to listing.

45% of the current listings were built in the last five years, so new-construction inventory is a real option here rather than an exception.

What do you actually get for the money?

85% of the homes for sale have four or more bedrooms, with the 5-bedroom plan the most common of all. Family-sized space is the norm rather than the premium option.

A typical listing here offers about 2,134 sq ft of living space and 4 bathrooms.

Where a lot is reported, the median is 7,746 sq ft, which is what sets the ceiling on additions, laneway homes and future redevelopment.

30% of the listings report a finished basement, which in this city usually means either extra family space or a mortgage helper.

Strata or freehold?

50% of the active listings are strata-titled and the rest are freehold, so the ownership question is a live one in Central BN rather than settled by the neighbourhood.

Across the 5 listings that disclose one, the median strata fee is $150 per month. Read it against what it covers before comparing two buildings on price alone.
