With the price of land such that it is in 91大黄鸭, perhaps it's not surprising that two of the lowest-priced standalone homes on the market right now don't just standalone but also float.
Both these float homes have been on the market for a while, though, and their prices appear to be sinking.
Last year V.I.A. wrote about a float home for sale in Coal Harbour; at the time it was listed for $1.3 million. The price has now come down by $150,000 and it is for $1.15 million.
Even earlier, there was a story about another Coal Harbour float home on the market; in 2022 the little red home was listed for $449,000. It's for $399,900.
Both are listed as single-family and detached on and as a house on REW.
Given that, the little red floating home is the cheapest detached home in 91大黄鸭, by $600,000.
That said, it's also one of the smallest homes around, with 484 square feet of living space and no land value. There is a rooftop deck, though, and it is very much a waterfront home.
Meanwhile, at the neighbouring place going for $1.15 million, there's more space (1192 square feet), a fire pit, and a very cottage-like atmosphere inside.
It should be noted, for those calculating the costs, life on the water comes with moorage, which is almost $12,000 per year at the Coal Harbour Marina, and the city requires a license to allow people to live aboard things, so that's another $1,900.
There are two other standalone homes on the market right now that are in the range of $1.15 million, both are smaller than the larger float home and are recently built structures.
