Sumas Prairie homes for sale

What kind of homes are in Sumas Prairie?

Sumas Prairie is a detached-house neighbourhood. 88% 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.

Construction dates are spread out. The median home for sale dates to 1989, with most of the market falling between 1938 and 2019, so condition and updates vary a lot from listing to listing.

What do you actually get for the money?

67% of the homes for sale have four or more bedrooms, with the 4-bedroom plan the most common of all. Family-sized space is the norm rather than the premium option.

A typical listing here offers about 2,654 sq ft of living space and 3 bathrooms.

Where a lot is reported, the median is 217,800 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.

Enclosed parking is standard: 82% of listings include a garage.

Strata or freehold?

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