Because Vancouver, Washington has such a vast history, there are examples from many different eras in the city's architecture. This means that those looking for a historic Victorian design and those wishing for all the latest in modern conveniences can both find their dream home within the city. If you're coming from Oakville real estate and you're accustomed to scenery and good schools and healthcare, there are lots of similar options with real estate in Vancouver. If you're looking for something comparable to that California condo, that might be possible too.
Those looking in the downtown area are going to find a lot of Victorian style houses and bungalows, while there are a number of tract-style homes built during the war years and ranch-style real estate in midtown. Those living in the outer neighborhoods around the city generally reside in the typical two-storey suburban homes that one would see all over North American, from Tulsa to a house for sale in Mississauga. Most of them are between 1,500 and 2,500 square feet, have around 3-4 beds and baths and are listed close to $350,000. This could be the perfect home for someone looking to start a family or make one bigger.
For those looking for the top of the line houses in Vancouver, there are a few options. There are several new condo townhouses on the market with views of the river that you wouldn't get with the average Seattle or Mississauga condos for sale. Some of the best are in the Tidewater Cove section of the city and include such amenities as tennis courts and pools. The Sahalie Condos are currently selling for around 1.3 million dollars.
Those who are looking for a little more space than condo living can offer should look to Felida or the Hazel Dell areas. Homes in these sections of the city are well into the million dollar range and are in a variety of styles from ranches to more modern angular designs. If your last home was among Toronto waterfront condos some of these homes will give you the same level of luxury plus your own private access to the water.
For those with their own views in mind of what makes the perfect home design, there are a number of empty lots available ready for a new home to be built on them. If you look through the hundreds of homes currently on the market and come up short, maybe this is the path for you. You could design a home inspired by a Mexican villa you once stayed in or some Toronto lofts for sale you saw advertised in a magazine. The sky is the limit with home designs when you're looking to build.
Vancouver, Washington is a melange of home styles that you can only find in a community that has stood the test of time. The historical buildings you'll see throughout the city represent everything from the Queen Ann style to a boarding school built like a log cabin. There is really something for every home taste in Vancouver.
