It's time to get out on the water and Tea Lake delivers. Spend your days boating, water skiing, kayaking, or canoeing and an easy cruise to the Trent-Severn Waterway. Walking trails are right at your doorstep beginning with a short stroll to a 12-km hiking, ATV and snowmobile trail that offers exciting adventures, beautiful views of hidden lakes and the countryside. Golf and ski hills too are just a short drive away. With plenty of open and level land around the cottage, there's even room for a game of catch or whatever outdoor activities with family. It's all here at Elva Lane-a year-round cottage where the setting is spectacular, the space is inviting, and unforgettable family memories are waiting to be made. Don't hesitate....the magic of this country home will be someone else's soon.

Vaughan Real Estate in October 2025: A Northern Performer in a Cooling GTA Market

While the overall Greater Toronto Area (GTA) housing market faced headwinds in October 2025, Vaughan, located in York Region South, demonstrated significant price resilience and noteworthy month-over-month (M/M) strength, particularly in key intermediate housing segments.

The general market narrative for the GTA in October 2025 was defined by contraction. The overall average GTA sales price settled at $1,054,372, representing a year-over-year (Y/Y) decrease of 7.2 per cent. Total home sales across the TRREB MLS® System were down 9.5 per cent compared to October 2024. However, against this backdrop of declining prices and lower sales activity, Vaughan proved to be a vibrant corner of the region.

The overall average selling price for all home types in Vaughan was $1,214,375 in October 2025.

The Star Performer: Condo Townhouses Surge

The most compelling story in Vaughan's October 2025 market data comes from the Condo Townhouse segment.

This category was a major outlier, registering a spectacular month-over-month price increase of +10.47 per cent. The average price for a Condo Townhouse reached $833,035. This positive trend wasn't just short-term; the Condo Townhouse segment was one of the few housing types in Vaughan to achieve a year-over-year price appreciation of +4.95 per cent. Nine units were sold in this segment during the month.

Stability in High-Value and Streamlined Segments

Despite the overall GTA price decline, Vaughan’s higher-priced housing categories maintained strong footing in October 2025:

Detached Homes: The Detached market remains Vaughan’s most valuable segment, with an average price of $1,596,815. Although facing Y/Y pressure (-9.30%), this segment experienced a positive M/M increase of +1.10 per cent. 152 detached homes were sold in October 2025.

Attached/Row/Townhouses: This segment averaged $1,041,616 and enjoyed a respectable M/M price increase of +2.20 per cent. This segment also demonstrated the greatest market speed, with properties spending an average of only 26 days on market.

Semi-Detached Homes: Averaging $1,072,822, this segment saw its price drop only slightly, by -1.76 per cent Y/Y.

Market Speed and Buyer Confidence

Vaughan’s market efficiency suggests active buyer engagement and realistic pricing among sellers. The average property days on market (PDOM) for all home types in Vaughan stood at 34 days. Specific segments moved quickly:

• Attached/Row/Townhouses: 26 days on market.

• Detached and Semi-Detached homes: 30 days on market.

Furthermore, the average selling price relative to the average listing price (Avg. SP/LP) for all home types in Vaughan was 97 per cent, indicating that properties sold close to their asking price, reflecting confidence in valuations.

Condo Apartment Correction

While many segments showed strength, the Condo Apartment market experienced a correction in Vaughan, mirroring broader trends reported across the GTA. The average price for Condo Apartments was $587,716, showing declines of -9.36 per cent M/M and -13.81 per cent Y/Y.

In total, 177 residential properties were sold in Vaughan in October 2025, reflecting sustained, though specific, demand in this key York Region market.
