What Homes Cost in West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC

West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC has no published benchmark price of its own, and never has. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board reports Cloverdale, Surrey, BC as one zone. What you can know honestly is the housing mix west of 168 Street — and that it splits at 60 Avenue, with larger lots and detached stock to the south, a genuine mix of townhomes and smaller-lot detached to the north — and what that does to a budget.

Start with what is not published

Most pages that answer this question give you a number. That number is almost always an estimate dressed up as a statistic, and it's worth understanding why before you plan around one.

The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board publishes MLS® Home Price Index benchmarks for a fixed list of reporting zones. Cloverdale, Surrey, BC is one of them. The quadrants inside it — the western one west of 168 Street, the older eastern streets, the historic core, and Clayton Heights, Surrey, BC — are not reported separately. There is no benchmark published for West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC, none for East Cloverdale, Surrey, BC, and none for Downtown Cloverdale, Surrey, BC. That isn't a gap in this post. It's a gap in the data, and it has always been there.

So I'm not going to give you a sub-area figure, because I'd have to make it up. Not a range, not an "adjusted" number, not a "typically around". A fabricated number is worse than no number, because you'd plan against it.

What I will do is give you the published Cloverdale-wide figures with their date attached, and then spend the rest of this post on the thing that actually moves your budget in this part of the community: the mix.

The Cloverdale, Surrey, BC benchmarks, August 2026

These are the current published MLS® HPI benchmark prices for the Cloverdale zone as a whole, from the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board's August 2026 statistics package. They cover all four quadrants together.

SegmentBenchmark1-year change
Composite$930,900−6.0%
Detached$1,339,700−6.3%
Townhouse$757,200−6.4%
Apartment$505,700−11.3%

Two things about that table are worth reading carefully.

The first is the date. August 2026 is the most recent reporting month FVREB has published. Anything presented to you as an August figure for this area does not exist yet.

The second is the detached line. Down 6.3% over the year sounds like a decline, and it is — but across the Fraser Valley it is the shallowest detached decline in the board's zone table. Surrey-Central detached is down 8.8% over the same period, South Surrey and White Rock detached is down 7.5%, and the Fraser Valley Board overall is down 8.3%. Cloverdale detached has fallen at a meaningfully slower rate than its neighbours. For a buyer looking at the western quadrant — which is overwhelmingly detached — that is the most relevant single fact in the whole package.

For context on the market these figures sit in: the Fraser Valley recorded 941 MLS® sales in August 2026, up 1% year over year, with a sales-to-active-listings ratio of 10%. Balanced is 12% to 20%. Below that is a buyer's market, and prices are falling in every zone and every property type. I'm naming the condition, not a deadline.

The housing mix that actually sets your budget here

This is the part nobody writes, and it's the part that answers the real question.

It skews detached, hard

The stock west of 168 Street is dominated by detached, single-family houses. Most of it went in from the late 1990s onward, after the City of Surrey approved neighbourhood concept plans for the area's two halves, split at 60 Avenue, in 1997. The city now describes both as largely complete.

That has a direct budget consequence. In a quadrant where the overwhelming majority of what trades is detached, the Cloverdale, Surrey, BC composite benchmark of $930,900 — which blends detached, townhouse and apartment sales across all four quadrants — is the least useful number on the table for you. The detached benchmark of $1,339,700 is the one that describes the product actually being sold on these streets, and even that is a Cloverdale-wide figure, not a local one.

Lot sizes run larger, and that's most of the difference

Lots in this quadrant are larger than in most of the rest of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC, and the houses were built to fill them. Land is the single biggest input into a detached price in the Fraser Valley, so a larger lot in a finished, planned subdivision is not a small variable — it's usually the variable.

That's also why comparing a listing here to a listing in the older eastern streets on price alone will mislead you. You're often comparing two different quantities of land with a house on each.

The stock has a narrow, consistent vintage

Because the area built out over a defined window rather than across four decades, the housing has an unusually consistent age. Practically, that means fewer of the surprises that come with genuinely old stock — and it also means many of these homes are now at the age where roofs, hot water tanks and exterior finishes come due together. Read the inspection with that in mind and price the next decade of maintenance into your offer rather than into your regret.

What you won't find much of

Townhouse and apartment product is scarce south of 60 Avenue, where the stock is almost entirely larger-lot detached. North of 60 Avenue it is not scarce at all — established townhouse complexes including Arbour Village on 164 Street, Westfield on 166 Street and Turnberry on 168 Street run to a couple of hundred units between them, on smaller detached lots than the southern half. Across both halves, secondary suites and coach homes are far less common than in the newer, denser parts of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC built out in the 2000s and 2010s.

That matters to a budget in two directions. South of 60 Avenue there is very little entry-level way in — the $757,200 townhouse and $505,700 apartment benchmarks describe Cloverdale product that mostly sits elsewhere in the community, not on those streets. North of 60 Avenue the townhouse stock is the entry point, and it is the reason you can start here and move up without leaving the quadrant. And there's less mortgage-helper income built into the stock, so what you can carry is more likely to rest on your own household income alone than it would in Clayton Heights, Surrey, BC.

How this quadrant sits against the rest of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC

Without a published sub-area number, the honest positioning statement is a statement about mix, not price — and it's still useful.

A half made up almost entirely of larger-lot detached homes has a higher entry point than one that also offers townhouses, apartments and suited newer construction, because there is simply less inexpensive product in it. That is arithmetic about inventory, not a price quote. A buyer whose budget lands near the Cloverdale townhouse or apartment benchmark will usually find their options north of 60 Avenue, in Downtown Cloverdale, Surrey, BC, or in Clayton Heights, Surrey, BC — rather than on the larger-lot streets south of 60th.

The flip side is that the segment this quadrant is made of — detached — is the segment that has held up best in Cloverdale, Surrey, BC over the past year.

Who buys here and why

Who buys in West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC depends on which side of 60 Avenue they are looking at. South of 60th the buyer is almost always a move-up household with the budget for a large-lot detached house they intend to stay in, because there is very little else on offer. North of 60th the entry point is far lower — the townhouse stock gives a way in to someone who could not carry the southern half — and that difference decides where most people actually end up.

In practice, south of 60 Avenue that tends to mean move-up buyers rather than first-time ones, and households who have already decided which part of the Fraser Valley they want to be in. The everyday infrastructure across this side of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC supports that read — A.J. McLellan Elementary at 16545 61 Avenue sits inside the quadrant, Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary at 6151 180 Street is a short drive east, and Cloverdale Athletic Park at 6410 168 Street on the eastern edge carries a great deal of the organized sport in the community. Bose Forest Park at 6203 164 Street is the quieter counterweight.

It also means people right sizing out of a larger property sometimes find the southern half awkward, because the product there runs big. If you want less house and less yard but still want a house, the townhouse stock north of 60 Avenue is the place to look before you write off the quadrant altogether.

What actually sets the price on a specific house

Once you're looking at real listings, four things move the number far more than any area average would:

Lot size and shape. As above. It's the biggest single input, and it varies more within this quadrant than the streetscape suggests.

What backs onto it. The western and southern edges of the quadrant run along Agricultural Land Reserve farmland near 64 Avenue and 152 Street. A home whose rear boundary faces protected farmland is a different proposition from one facing another row of houses. What can and cannot be done on any particular ALR parcel is a question for a lawyer and the City of Surrey's planning department, asked in writing about that specific parcel before subjects are removed.

Whether it's been updated. In a stock of consistent vintage, the homes that have had kitchens, roofs and mechanicals done separate sharply from the ones that haven't.

Access. Highway 10 runs along the southern edge, Highway 15 along 176 Street handles north–south travel, and Fraser Highway cuts diagonally toward Langley City, BC and Langley Township, BC. Proximity to those routes cuts both ways — convenience on one side, road noise on the other — 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 real number

If you want to know what a specific home is worth, that's a conversation about recent comparable sales on those particular streets, not a figure lifted from a zone-wide index. It takes me an afternoon and it costs you nothing.

In the meantime, you can browse West Cloverdale homes for sale, or widen it to Cloverdale, Surrey, BC homes for sale, which covers all four quadrants.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a published benchmark price for West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC?

No. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board publishes MLS® Home Price Index benchmarks for the Cloverdale, Surrey, BC zone as a whole and has never broken out the quadrants inside it. Any precise figure you're quoted for this sub-area is someone's estimate, not a published statistic.

What are the published Cloverdale, Surrey, BC benchmark prices right now?

As of August 2026, the FVREB benchmarks for the Cloverdale zone are $1,339,700 for a detached home, down 6.3% year over year; $930,900 composite, down 6.0%; $757,200 for a townhouse, down 6.4%; and $505,700 for an apartment, down 11.3%. Those are Cloverdale-wide figures covering all four quadrants.

Why would a home west of 168 Street cost more than one elsewhere in Cloverdale, Surrey, BC?

Because of the mix rather than any published premium. The quadrant is almost entirely larger-lot detached housing, with very little townhouse, apartment or suited newer product, so there's less inexpensive inventory in it than in quadrants that offer all of those. Land is also the largest single input into a detached price in the Fraser Valley, and lots here run larger.

Can you buy a townhouse or an apartment in West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC?

Very little of either exists west of 168 Street. Townhouse and apartment product is concentrated in the newer and more central parts of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC, so a buyer whose budget sits near the Cloverdale townhouse benchmark of $757,200 or the apartment benchmark of $505,700 as of August 2026 will usually find their options in another quadrant.

Is this a buyer's market or a seller's market in 2026?

A buyer's market, on the published numbers. 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 falling across every zone and property type. Cloverdale detached has held up better than its neighbours, down 6.3% against Surrey-Central's 8.8%.

How do I find out what a specific home in West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC is worth?

Through comparable sales on that block, adjusted for lot size, condition, what the property backs onto and access to Highway 10 and Highway 15. A zone-wide benchmark can tell you which direction the market is moving; it can't value a house. That part starts with the address.

Living in West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC: What the Area Is Actually Like

West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC is the settled, larger-lot western quadrant of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC, sitting west of 168 Street between Highway 10 and 64 Avenue, with Agricultural Land Reserve farmland along its western and southern edges. It's quiet, finished, and built for people who intend to stay a while.

Where the area actually sits

The City of Surrey defines this quadrant precisely, which is unusual and useful. West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC is the group of neighbourhoods along the Agricultural Land Reserve escarpment, west of 168 Street, between Highway 10 and 64 Avenue. The city planned it in two halves — West Cloverdale North and West Cloverdale South, split at 60 Avenue — approving both neighbourhood concept plans in 1997, and now describes both as largely complete.

That last detail matters more than it sounds. A neighbourhood that finished building out lives differently from one still filling in — no next phase, no construction road, no sales centre. What you see driving 60 Avenue or 62 Avenue on a Tuesday evening is what the area is.

The character, and why people who live here rarely leave

West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC is the established, larger-lot side of the community, west of 168 Street — but it is really two areas, split at 60 Avenue. South of 60th is the executive end: lots from about 7,000 square feet up to 12,000, running down toward Highway 10. North of 60th is older and more mixed, with larger townhomes and detached homes on lots closer to 2,000 to 4,000 square feet, which is why you can start in a condo there, move up to a townhouse, and end up in a detached house without ever leaving the neighbourhood.

The feel is residential in the old sense of the word. Long blocks, trees planted when the subdivisions went in and given nearly thirty years to fill out, driveways with room on them, and — because the western edge backs onto protected farmland rather than more houses — an actual horizon at the end of some streets. It isn't a walkable-café neighbourhood and doesn't pretend to be.

When buyers ask me where the higher-end side of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC is, I tell them West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC, and then I usually say the same two things. The first is that it tends to be the OG — the established part, the one that was already finished while other pockets were still being framed. The second is that anyone going there is going into a home. I don't say that as a slogan. I mean it literally: almost nobody buys here as a stepping stone. They buy because they've decided this is the house, and they're planning to be in it for a long time.

Housing stock and lot sizes

The stock is mostly detached and single-family, built from the late 1990s onward as the two neighbourhood plans rolled out — and those two plans are the thing to understand, because they split the quadrant at 60 Avenue. South of 60th is almost entirely larger-lot detached. North of 60th is a genuine mix, with established townhouse complexes and smaller-lot detached alongside each other. That gives the area a consistent vintage — old enough to have settled and landscaped and had a round of updates, new enough to sit outside the eras that generate the biggest renovation conversations.

Lot sizes are what people notice first. They run larger here than almost anywhere else in Cloverdale, Surrey, BC, and the houses were built to use them: side yards you can walk down, back yards that fit a table and a trampoline and still have grass left.

Density is where the two halves diverge most. South of 60 Avenue you won't find much of it — townhouse and apartment product is genuinely scarce, and secondary suites and coach homes are far less common than in the areas built out in the 2000s and 2010s. North of 60 Avenue is different: established townhouse complexes including Arbour Village on 164 Street, Westfield on 166 Street and Turnberry on 168 Street add up to a couple of hundred units between them, and the detached lots up there run smaller. Either way, residents of denser Surrey neighbourhoods will appreciate the knock-on effect immediately: street parking is generally not an issue.

Because the mix south of 60 Avenue skews so heavily toward larger detached homes, the entry point into that half of West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC sits above most of the rest of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC — while the townhouse stock north of 60th is what makes a more modest way in possible at all. That's a housing-mix statement, not a price quote — more on that below.

The Agricultural Land Reserve edge along 64 Avenue and 152 Street

The single most distinctive fact about this quadrant is what borders it. Agricultural Land Reserve land — the provincial designation that reserves farmland for agricultural use — runs along 64 Avenue and 152 Street, and the western boundary of the area is the ALR escarpment itself.

For a buyer the practical read is simple, and worth understanding before you fall in love with a view: that open space is open because it's designated, not because nobody has got to it yet. ALR land is administered under a provincial framework and doesn't behave like ordinary residential land waiting its turn. If a home's back fence looks out over fields, you're far less likely to be looking at a subdivision in five years than almost anywhere else in the Fraser Valley.

That's the awareness, and it's where my part of the conversation ends. What may or may not be built on a specific ALR parcel, and what it means for a particular property line, are questions for a lawyer and for the City of Surrey's planning department — asked about that parcel, in writing, before subjects are removed. A REALTOR® can point you at the boundary on a map. Nobody should be giving you the legal answer over coffee.

The flip side is worth naming honestly: farmland is a working landscape, with seasons, equipment and smells. Most people who choose this edge consider that a feature. Some don't, and the way to find out which you are is to stand on the street, more than once.

Getting around

This is a car-first quadrant, and pretending otherwise would do you no favours. The road geometry, though, is unusually convenient for a place that feels this quiet. Highway 10 forms the southern edge. Highway 15 — 176 Street — runs south toward the Pacific Highway border crossing and north toward the Trans-Canada. Fraser Highway cuts through on the diagonal toward Langley City, BC and Langley Township, BC. And 64 Avenue and 168 Street work as through-routes rather than barriers.

Transit is the honest weak point. Like most of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC, this is a bus-to-a-connection area rather than a rapid-transit one, and a household here will realistically want two vehicles.

Schools and parks by name

A.J. McLellan Elementary sits inside the quadrant at 16545 61 Avenue, walkable for a good share of the surrounding streets. Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary, at 6151 180 Street, is the long-standing Cloverdale, Surrey, BC high school, a short drive east in the older core. Catchments in Surrey, BC change more often than people expect — confirm yours for a specific address with the Surrey Schools catchment locator, not a listing sheet, including mine.

The two parks that shape daily life here are opposites.

Bose Forest Park, at 6203 164 Street, is the quiet one — a forested community park the City of Surrey describes as being in west Cloverdale, running between 62 Avenue and 64 Avenue west of 165 Street, with nature trails and a sensitive swamp ecosystem inside it. A piece of real forest inside a residential grid is not a common thing.

Cloverdale Athletic Park, at 6410 168 Street, sits on the quadrant's eastern edge at 168 Street and 64 Avenue: ball diamonds, artificial turf fields, a BMX and mountain bike park, a fieldhouse, and a water park and playground at the south end. If you have kids in organized sport, you'll be there constantly, and from most of the quadrant you'll be there in under ten minutes.

The honest trade-offs

Three, and none are dealbreakers so much as things to be clear-eyed about.

It's quiet, and quiet is a trade. No commercial strip inside the quadrant. Groceries, coffee and errands mean a short drive — east toward the historic core or south along Highway 10. Buyers coming from a walkable urban neighbourhood consistently underestimate how much they'll notice this.

The entry point is higher. Because the mix is so heavily larger-lot detached, there's very little affordable way in. A buyer who wants this area but not this budget usually ends up in the eastern and newer parts of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC instead.

It's finished. The appeal and the constraint at once: what's here is what's here. If you want new construction or the chance to be early in a neighbourhood still forming, that's a different quadrant.

A word on prices, and what I won't do

The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board publishes benchmark prices for the Cloverdale, Surrey, BC zone as a whole. As of August 2026, the detached benchmark for that zone is $1,339,700, down 6.3% year over year, with the composite benchmark at $930,900.

Those are Cloverdale-wide figures. There is no published benchmark for West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC, or for any other quadrant of the community — FVREB doesn't report at that level and never has. So I won't give you a sub-area number; any number I gave you would be invented, and a made-up figure is worse than none. What I can tell you is the mix that actually drives the price you'll see: larger lots, larger detached homes, very little entry-level product. For a real number on a real property, that's a conversation, and it starts with the address.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where exactly is West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC?

It's the western quadrant of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC — the neighbourhoods along the Agricultural Land Reserve escarpment, west of 168 Street, between Highway 10 and 64 Avenue. The City of Surrey planned it as two areas, West Cloverdale North and West Cloverdale South, divided at 60 Avenue, and approved both neighbourhood concept plans in 1997.

What kind of homes are in West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC?

It depends which half you're in, because the quadrant is split at 60 Avenue by two separate neighbourhood plans. South of 60th is overwhelmingly detached single-family homes on larger lots, most built from the late 1990s onward, with townhouses and apartments genuinely scarce. North of 60th is a real mix: established townhouse complexes alongside detached homes on smaller lots. Across both halves, secondary suites and coach homes are far less common than in areas built out in the 2000s and 2010s.

What does the Agricultural Land Reserve boundary mean for a buyer here?

Practically, it means the open space along 64 Avenue and 152 Street is open because it's designated farmland, not because development hasn't reached it — so a home backing onto it is less likely to end up backing onto a subdivision. What may or may not be done on any specific ALR parcel is a legal and municipal-planning question, not a REALTOR®'s, and it should be asked of a lawyer and the City of Surrey about that exact parcel before subjects are removed.

Which schools and parks are in West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC?

A.J. McLellan Elementary is at 16545 61 Avenue, inside the quadrant. Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary is at 6151 180 Street, a short drive east in the older core of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC. For parks, Bose Forest Park at 6203 164 Street offers forest trails and a wetland, and Cloverdale Athletic Park at 6410 168 Street, on the eastern edge, has ball diamonds, artificial turf fields, a BMX and mountain bike park, and a water park and playground. Confirm school catchments for a specific address with the Surrey Schools catchment locator.

What are the real trade-offs of living in West Cloverdale, Surrey, BC?

Three. There's no commercial strip inside the quadrant, so groceries and coffee mean a short drive. The entry point sits above most of Cloverdale, Surrey, BC because the housing mix is so heavily larger-lot detached. And the area is finished — which is the appeal for most buyers, but it means no new construction and no chance to get in early on something still forming.

If a specific school is driving your search, you can find homes by school catchment rather than by neighbourhood — catchment boundaries don't always follow the lines you'd expect, and two homes a few blocks apart can be assigned to different schools.
