Wasaga Beach Real Estate Has A Lot To Offer Recreational Home Buyers
Although the Town of Wasaga Beach did not become recognized until January of 1974, its stature as the longest fresh water beach in the world has constantly attracted both permanent and seasonal residents, particularly from nearby Toronto. Consequently, the population has steadily increased -- from 12,419 permanent occupants in 2001 to 15,029 when the 2006 census was taken.
While the numbers continue to rise, Wasaga Beach has earned a standing as one of the quickest growing communities in Canada. The amount of sales and the extent of Wasaga Beach real estate sold is increasing substantially -- especially since 2009 -- and new inhabitants are building homes as the demand for more seasonal properties is growing, and cottages and weekend homes are springing up along the sought after water front.
Residents and tourists alike are lured to Wasaga Beach by the the fourteen kilometers of safe sandy public beaches that include the Wasaga Beach Provincial Park, which was awarded the coveted Blue Flag designation for its endeavors to manage Wasaga’s shoreline according to international environmental guidlines. During the summer, locals and vacationers alike enjoy sunbathing and activities such as frisbee and running along the sandy beaches which are numbered 1-6 -- with 1 and 2 being the most popular. The same expanse of beach turns into a wintertime mecca for sports buffs who come to hike and cross country ski on the popular trails.
Although a devastating fire demolished seventy percent of the main drag, businesses and apartments -- along with the pedestrian mall -- on November 30, 2007, Wasaga Beach development has not stopped. Instead, the area is undergoing a massive development boom with fabrication currently underway on a contemporary style beach front area with shopping, eateries, and an indoor/outdoor theme park attached to a monorail. At present, the Georgian Coach Lines -- which provides local transportation services --has had to broaden their routes twice since 2008 to meet the need of the growing area and offers an east-west loop through the area from 7AM to 7PM daily.
Property sales rose in the first part of 2010 by 65 percent when compared to the same stretch last year. In March 2010, the sector experienced a whopping 50 percent increase, probably due to the increased number of services and products all over Wasaga Beach and including the Collingwood real estate sector that is close by. Even more reassuring were the price range escalations, up to 172 percent in some parts of the Greater Toronto Area, with houses that were asking 300K moving into the 350K to 500K range. Although almost certainly seasonal buyers account for much of the growth, it also appears to be due to the upscale homes in Wasaga Beach are becoming a sought after retirement choice for wealthier residents. The pastoral charm of Wasaga Beach and the well known Georgian Triangle 'quality of life' will always appeal to a wide range of home buyers who prefer the country life as well as the advantage of being just a couple of hours from all that Toronto can offer.
