What kind of homes are in Seafair?

Seafair is a detached-house neighbourhood. 75% 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 townhouses, at 14% of what is listed.

Construction dates are spread out. The median home for sale dates to 2012, with most of the market falling between 1964 and 2022, so condition and updates vary a lot from listing to listing.

15% 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?

88% 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 3,358 sq ft of living space and 5 bathrooms.

Where a lot is reported, the median is 7,036 sq ft, which is what sets the ceiling on additions, laneway homes and future redevelopment.

Enclosed parking is standard: 79% of listings include a garage.

Strata or freehold?

Only 18% of the listings in Seafair are strata-titled. Most buyers here are purchasing freehold, with no monthly fee and no strata council to answer to.
