Powell River Real Estate

Powell River and area offers excellent value in terms of residential, commercial and industrial lands.

Featured Powell River Area Realtors

Texada Island Real Estate

While the housing market in Powell River is vigorous, prices compared to most small towns close to urban centers are still very reasonable, making Powell River an excellent destination for those looking to own a first home, a more affordable home, more home for the money or an affordable retirement location.

Powell River has also been developing a range of housing choices for adult living and retirees, including residential areas offering primarily level entry and single-level home layouts, and senior-focussed condominium communities conveniently located to all of the major amenities and bus routes.

There are still 300 hectares located in eight various areas around Powell River available for residential construction, and a well-developed Official Community Plan to give developers and residents a clear plan to work towards.

Most of the commercial development takes place in the Westview area of Powell River, with most bare infill land already developed, especially in the Joyce/Alberni and Marine Avenue areas. However, there is still a lot of vacant and fully serviced sites located in the main business district available for redevelopment.

Industrial lands are primarily located in the Duncan Street area close to the Municipal Airport. The south end of the Westview waterfront is the main focus of commercial marine-based services such as barge service and fuel storage facilities. There is still much land available for industrial development in the form of individual enterprises or an industrial park.
