No flux in Fraser

The city of Fraser offers a vast array of schools, parks, community centers and local parks to explore, all while maintaining a homey feel. RE/MAX Suburban agent Jessica Belanger, a realtor with 12 years of experience, says its pleasantness lies in its stability. “It's a comfortable, niche community surrounded by urban sprawl, and I think that’s why people like it. It has a small-town feel and you don’t get that a lot in the neighboring communities. It has little pockets with older and newer homes but as a whole, the community isn't in flux. There isn't much building up or changing over. Fraser is established and stable."

Colonials and construction

Home styles in the city vary in size and styles, lending a diverse palette of aesthetics. "The main appeal is the properties sit on large residential lots. They're well-established and the trees are mature. There's predominantly ranch- and colonial-style homes that were built in the fifties. The smaller newer construction areas that you do see tend to be isolated. A lot of the families have been there for generations. It's really a community that when you’re looking for homes there, you know what you’re getting," Belanger says. A drive down Davidson Street reveals homey ranches while White Oak Drive displays larger, luxe contemporary colonials. Tree-lined sidewalks provide plenty of shade over garages and large driveways. Prices begin around $165,000 for a home with three beds and one bath and can go as high as $510,000 for a newer construction with three beds and three-and-a-half baths.
