Port Coquitlam real estate has something for everybody — from condos to houses with massive acreage — with prices ranging from $350,000 to nearly $5 million.
One spectacular 15.6-acre property close to the Pitt River is gorgeous to view and on the upper end of properties listed for sale on REW.ca.
Located at 325 Laurier Ave., the property is offered for sale for $4.99 million, and though located within the flood plain, includes blueberry fields and beautiful views.
The three-level main house has seven bedrooms and six bathrooms, enough space to accommodate three families with three separate entries.
There is a second house that is also tenanted, and a huge barn.
As privacy is strictly respected, a first time showing is with land only and requires an appointment.
