Diver Lake Real Estate Market
A small lake, and the streets that grew around it.Diver Lake real estate market prices carry a modest premium over the surrounding parts of Nanaimo, and the lake at the centre of the neighbourhood is most of the reason why.
Diver Lake Real Estate Market Overview
Diver Lake is a residential area in the middle of the city built around a small lake with a park and a walking loop. The housing is largely from the sixties and seventies, on lots that are generous by current standards.
It is central without feeling central. The highway and the shopping are close, and the streets themselves are quiet in a way that a lot of mid city neighbourhoods are not.
Proximity to the lake is a real and measurable premium. Properties backing onto or looking at the water trade above the ones a few streets away, even where the houses are the same vintage and size.

Questions About These Numbers
Yes. Set it on any graph and it will come at whatever interval you choose.
It is a small city lake with a park and a walking loop rather than a swimming destination. Its value to the neighbourhood is as green space.
Mostly sixties and seventies, on larger lots than newer subdivisions offer. Condition varies and is worth checking.
