Hemlock homes for sale

What kind of homes are in Hemlock?

There is no single housing type in Hemlock. The active listings run other homes at 44%, detached houses at 25% and condos at 17%, 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 1982, with most of the market falling between 1978 and 2021, 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 1,496 sq ft of living space and 2 bathrooms.

Where a lot is reported, the median is 8,400 sq ft, which is what sets the ceiling on additions, laneway homes and future redevelopment.

Strata or freehold?

31% of the active listings are strata-titled and the rest are freehold, so the ownership question is a live one in Hemlock rather than settled by the neighbourhood.

Across the 9 listings that disclose one, the median strata fee is $355 per month. Read it against what it covers before comparing two buildings on price alone.

Getting around Hemlock

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

Across 26 scored listings the median walk score is 1 out of 100, computed from real walking routes. Day-to-day errands here usually involve a drive or a bus.

Setting and surroundings

A view is claimed on 89% 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.
