Kawkawa Lake homes for sale

What kind of homes are in Kawkawa Lake?

Kawkawa Lake is a detached-house neighbourhood. 70% 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 30% of what is listed.

Construction dates are spread out. The median home for sale dates to 1997, with most of the market falling between 1970 and 2022, so condition and updates vary a lot from listing to listing.

29% 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?

57% of the homes for sale have four or more bedrooms, though smaller 3-bedroom homes still turn up regularly. Family-sized space is the norm here rather than the premium option.

A typical listing here offers about 2,312 sq ft of living space and 3 bathrooms.

Where a lot is reported, the median is 7,581 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.

Enclosed parking is standard: 60% of listings include a garage.

Strata or freehold?

Only 20% of the listings in Kawkawa Lake are strata-titled. Most buyers here are purchasing freehold, with no monthly fee and no strata council to answer to.

Getting around Kawkawa Lake

Setting and surroundings
