Murrayville, Langley Township, BC has no published benchmark price of its own, and never has. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board reports Langley as a single zone covering both Langley Township, BC and Langley City, BC. What you can know honestly is the housing mix around Five Corners, and what that mix does to a budget.
Start with the number that does not exist
Most pages answering this question hand you a figure for the neighbourhood, and it is almost always an estimate wearing a statistic's clothes. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board publishes MLS® Home Price Index benchmarks for a fixed list of reporting zones. Langley is one of them, and it is one zone — not split between Langley Township, BC and Langley City, BC, two separate municipalities with their own councils, bylaws and tax rates. Below that zone nothing is broken out at all. There is no published benchmark for Murrayville, Langley Township, BC, and none for any other neighbourhood inside Langley Township, BC. There never has been.
So I am not going to give you a figure for this neighbourhood, because I would have to invent it. Not a range, not an adjusted number, not a "typically around". A made-up number is worse than no number, because you would budget against it and then meet the real listings. What follows instead is the published data that genuinely covers this area, with its coverage stated, and then the things that actually move a budget here: the mix, the vintage, the servicing, and the costs a benchmark never shows.
The published benchmark figures, August 2026, and exactly what they cover
These are the MLS® HPI benchmark prices for the FVREB Langley zone, from the board's August 2026 statistics package. Read them as what they are: one blended figure per segment covering the whole of Langley Township, BC and the whole of Langley City, BC together.
Three things in that table are worth slowing down for.
The date. August 2026 is the most recent month the board has reported. Any August figure presented to you for this area does not exist yet.
The detached line. At $1,479,400, detached housing in this zone is the most expensive of the Fraser Valley markets I work in — $139,700 above the Cloverdale, Surrey, BC zone's $1,339,700 benchmark. That gap is the most useful orientation number a detached buyer can carry into a search here.
The townhouse line. Down 4.9% over the year, it is the most resilient segment anywhere in the board's zone table.
For the market these sit inside: the Fraser Valley recorded 941 MLS® sales in August 2026, up 1% year over year, with a sales-to-active-listings ratio of 10% against a balanced range of 12% to 20%, and prices down across every zone and property type. That is a buyer's market on the published numbers. I am naming the condition, not a deadline.
The catch with all four figures is coverage. One zone blends the rural east of Langley Township, BC with the apartment buildings going up in Langley City, BC. A composite that wide tells you the direction of travel; it does not describe a street.
The housing mix in Murrayville, Langley Township, BC
This is the part that actually answers the budget question, and the part nobody writes, because it means admitting what is not published.
A core older than almost anything around it
The historic centre is Five Corners, the multi-way intersection at Yale Road and 216 Street, which the Langley Heritage Society describes as a place where time has "stood relatively still for over 100 years." The subdivision bounded by 216 Street, 216A Street, 48 Avenue and 48A Avenue is one of the oldest in Langley Township, BC — six of the original eight building lots still carry houses built before 1930. Old Yale Road runs through the same fabric: the historic New Westminster-to-Yale route, on the Township's Heritage Register since 2008, inside the Murrayville Heritage Conservation Area Community Plan adopted in 2010, and BC's first concrete road surface when it was laid in 1922.
For a budget, that history is not decoration. Pre-1930 houses price on entirely different terms than 1990s stock — different systems, different inspection findings, different insurance conversations. What a heritage conservation area permits on a specific property is a question to put to the Township's planning department in writing, about that address, before subjects are removed.
All three forms exist here, and the exact split is not published
Detached houses, townhouses and apartments all trade in this neighbourhood, and point-in-time listing inventory shows no single form clearly dominant. That is as precise as the honest version gets. Neither the Township nor BC Assessment publishes a percentage breakdown by form here, and listing-portal snapshots are inventory on a given afternoon, not a census. For the same reason there are no typical lot sizes in this post: no primary source states them, so any figure you see quoted is somebody's impression.
What the mix does tell you is real, though. An area carrying all three forms has more than one way in. A buyer whose budget sits nearer the $806,400 townhouse or $534,000 apartment benchmark is not automatically shut out here the way they would be in a neighbourhood built almost entirely of detached houses.
The named subdivisions, including the one you will see in listings
Several named subdivisions and complexes sit inside Murrayville, Langley Township, BC: Legado, James Hill, Upper Murrayville, Macklin Corners, Lower Murrayville, Park Lane, Murray's Corner and Southridge.
"Upper Murrayville" deserves a flag, because it turns up in listing copy constantly. It is real-estate and local parlance for a subdivision distinct from the historic core — not a mapped planning area, and no Township document defines its boundaries. When a listing leans on it, the useful follow-up is which streets, not which label.
Municipal water and sewer, not well and septic
This area is on municipal water and sanitary sewer, confirmed by the Township's own $9.9 million Old Yale Road project west of 216 Street, which explicitly includes sanitary and watermain upgrades. So there is no well flow test and no septic inspection in your due-diligence costs, and no field to replace later. In the Township, though, water, sewer, garbage and recycling were unbundled from property taxes — approved June 2024, effective 2025 — and arrive on a separate statement. A Township tax bill is not the whole carrying cost.
How the area sits against the rest of Langley Township, BC
Without a sub-area figure, honest positioning is about composition rather than price. The civic weight here is unusual. Langley Memorial Hospital, the Langley RCMP Main Detachment at 22180 48A Avenue, the Langley School District administrative offices, the Murrayville Library at 100-22071 48 Avenue and the W.C. Blair Recreation Centre at 22200 Fraser Highway all sit inside this one neighbourhood, as does Langley Regional Airport.
That is an institutional core, not a retail one. Murrayville, Langley Township, BC is organised around that core and its trail connections rather than around a shopping strip, and daily errands generally mean a short trip toward Langley City, BC. Whether that reads as a drawback or as the point is a question about you.
Who buys here and why
Buyers who focus on Murrayville, Langley Township, BC are usually choosing an established, mixed-vintage neighbourhood over a newly built subdivision, and the housing mix is what makes that a live choice at more than one budget: detached, townhouse and apartment product all exist here, so the area holds several entry points rather than only one.
The everyday infrastructure supports that read. James Hill Elementary sits at 22144 Old Yale Road and Langley Secondary School at 21405 56 Avenue; the Murrayville Outdoor Activity Park at 20338 65 Avenue carries basketball courts and pathways, McLeod Athletic Park handles a great deal of organized sport, and the Derek Doubleday Arboretum sits on Fraser Highway just east of the Langley City, BC boundary.
One caution on schools, because it changes offers. The Langley School District redrew catchment boundaries in 2026 with a new secondary and middle school coming online. If a catchment is part of why you want a particular house, check that address against the district's live School Locator rather than against any list, including this one.
The Surrey–Langley SkyTrain is not a factor in this neighbourhood's prices
It gets used as one, so it is worth being precise. The extension runs along Fraser Highway from King George Station in Surrey to a terminus inside Langley City, BC — the separate municipality — at the Langley City Centre station, 203 Street and Industrial Avenue. All eight of its stations sit on that corridor, and not one of them lands in Murrayville, Langley Township, BC.
So listing copy here that gestures at "future SkyTrain access" is describing a station in another municipality, a drive or a bus ride away. That may still matter to you. It is not a station in the neighbourhood, and it should not be paid for as though it were.
What actually sets the price on a specific house
Once you are looking at real listings, three things move the number far more than any zone benchmark would.
Vintage, and whether the work has been done. In a neighbourhood spanning pre-1930 heritage houses through to modern construction, "updated" and "original" are two price tiers of the same street.
Which subdivision, precisely. Listings in Murrayville, Langley Township, BC lean on "Upper Murrayville" as shorthand; ask which streets it means.
Position relative to Fraser Highway and 216 Street. Access to the two main routes cuts both ways, and it shows up in pricing.
None of those are visible in a benchmark. All of them are visible in comparable sales on the block, which is what a real valuation is built from.
Getting a number that is actually about your house
If you want to know what a specific home here is worth, that is a conversation about recent comparable sales on those streets, adjusted for vintage, form, condition and position. It takes me an afternoon and costs you nothing. In the meantime you can browse Murrayville homes for sale, or widen it to Langley Township, BC homes for sale, which covers every neighbourhood in the municipality.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a published benchmark price for Murrayville, Langley Township, BC?
No. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board publishes MLS® Home Price Index benchmarks for the Langley zone as a whole, covering both Langley Township, BC and Langley City, BC, and has never broken out neighbourhoods inside it. Any precise figure quoted for this specific area is someone's estimate, not a published statistic.
What do the published benchmark figures for Langley Township, BC actually cover?
As of August 2026, the FVREB benchmarks for the Langley zone are $1,479,400 for a detached home, down 7.1% year over year; $948,600 composite, down 6.6%; $806,400 for a townhouse, down 5.0%; and $534,000 for an apartment, down 8.8%. Those figures cover Langley Township, BC and Langley City, BC together, not either one separately.
How much of the housing in Murrayville, Langley Township, BC is detached versus townhouse or apartment?
The precise split is not published. Neither the Township of Langley nor BC Assessment reports a detached, townhouse and apartment breakdown for this neighbourhood, and listing-portal snapshots are inventory on a given day, not census data. What can be said honestly is that all three forms trade here, with no single form clearly dominant.
Do homes marketed as "Upper Murrayville" sell for more than the rest of Murrayville, Langley Township, BC?
There is no published data that could answer that, because no benchmark is reported below the zone level and the label has no mapped boundaries to measure. It is real-estate and local parlance for a named subdivision distinct from the historic Five Corners core, alongside others such as Legado, James Hill, Macklin Corners and Southridge. Treat it in a listing as a prompt to ask which streets are meant, then price those streets on their own comparable sales.
Should the Surrey–Langley SkyTrain be priced into an offer in Murrayville, Langley Township, BC?
No station is planned in this neighbourhood. All eight stations sit on the Fraser Highway corridor and the terminus is at Langley City Centre, 203 Street and Industrial Avenue, inside Langley City, BC — a separate municipality. TransLink anticipates the line in service in 2029. Listing copy promising "future SkyTrain access" here describes a station that will be a drive or a bus ride away.
What will property taxes cost on a home in Murrayville, Langley Township, BC?
The Township of Langley's 2026 Class 1 residential rate is 3.61686 per $1,000 of assessed value, against Langley City, BC's 4.20670 — roughly $3,617 versus $4,207 on a $1,000,000 assessment. A lower rate is not automatically a lower bill: the Township's own 2026 tax newsletter uses $1.5 million as the average assessed value of a Township residential home, and that assessment at the Township rate works out near $5,425. Water, sewer, garbage and recycling are billed separately.
