Houses for Sale in Surrey, BC

Detached houses in Surrey range from under $1M to well over $3M depending on the neighbourhood, lot size, and condition. Newton and West Newton offer the best buying power, with prices starting around $823K for older homes on standard lots. Guildford detached homes sit in the mid-to-high $800K range. South Surrey is the premium market, with homes starting in the $1.5M range and reaching $3M+ in Morgan Creek and Elgin Chantrell.

Lot sizes matter in Surrey. Standard lots in newer subdivisions are 33-40 feet wide. Older neighbourhoods like Newton and Guildford have wider lots — 50-60 feet — which offer more yard space and potential for a coach house or laneway home. If the property is in the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR), there are strict limits on what you can build and whether you can subdivide.

The market for detached houses in Surrey has levelled off. Prices are flat to slightly rising, and homes are taking longer to sell than they did in 2024. Buyers have more negotiating room, especially for homes that need updates. AG. Song checks zoning, ALR status, and development potential on every Surrey house listing before making a recommendation.

Can I build a coach house on my Surrey property?

It depends on the zoning and lot size. Surrey allows secondary suites and coach houses on most single-family lots, but the property must meet specific setback and parking requirements. ALR properties have additional restrictions. Check with the City of Surrey planning department or ask your REALTOR to verify before buying.

What is the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) in Surrey?

The ALR is provincial farmland that is protected from development. Parts of Cloverdale, South Surrey, and Newton border the ALR. If a house sits on ALR land, you cannot subdivide or build additional structures beyond what is permitted for farm use. Always check ALR status before buying.

Newton and West Newton have the lowest detached home prices, starting around $823K. Guildford (excluding Fraser Heights) also offers homes in the mid-$800K range. These older homes often sit on wider lots with more yard space than newer construction.

Are Surrey house prices going up or down in 2026?

As of early 2026, Surrey detached home prices are flat to slightly rising. The market has cooled from the rapid gains of 2021-2022. Homes are taking longer to sell, and buyers have more negotiating room — especially for properties that need updates or renovations.
