Fraser Canyon homes for sale

What kind of homes are in Fraser Canyon?

Fraser Canyon is a detached-house neighbourhood. 73% of the homes on the market are single-family houses on their own lot, so the supply is set by how many owners decide to sell in a given season.

The next largest group is other homes, at 27% of what is listed.

Construction dates are spread out. The median home for sale dates to 1975, with most of the market falling between 1944 and 2015, so condition and updates vary a lot from listing to listing.

What do you actually get for the money?

The 3-bedroom plan is the most common listing, with smaller and larger homes on either side of it.

A typical listing here offers about 1,931 sq ft of living space and 2 bathrooms.

Where a lot is reported, the median is 14,375 sq ft, which is what sets the ceiling on additions, laneway homes and future redevelopment.

18% of the listings report a finished basement, which in this city usually means either extra family space or a mortgage helper.

Strata or freehold?

Only 0% of the listings in Fraser Canyon are strata-titled. Most buyers here are purchasing freehold, with no monthly fee and no strata council to answer to.

Getting around Fraser Canyon

Transit coverage is thin here. Most listings in Fraser Canyon are not close to rapid transit or a frequent bus route, so plan on driving.

Setting and surroundings

9% of the current listings are waterfront, which is rare enough anywhere in the region to shape pricing on the streets around them.

A view is claimed on 73% of the listings. Views are priced aggressively and are the first thing a new tower can take away, so it is worth checking what protects one before you pay for it.
