About Oakville
Where are the bungalows in Oakville?
Oakville’s bungalows sit mostly in the neighbourhoods that filled in after the Second World War. The West and Southwest areas have many 1950s and 1960s bungalows on generous lots. Morrison, Old Oakville and Bronte have them too, often on the largest lots in town. In the middle of Oakville, College Park, Central, Ford and Falgarwood mix bungalows with side-splits and two-storey homes. North of Dundas Street, new bungalows are rare, since builders there mostly put up two-storey homes on narrower lots.
Why do Oakville bungalows attract builders as well as buyers?
In south Oakville, a bungalow often sits on a lot worth more than the house. That means you may be bidding against a builder who plans to tear it down. If you want to live in the house, this matters for price and for how fast a good one sells. If you want to rebuild, check the rules first. Zoning in many older neighbourhoods limits how big and tall a new house can be, and heritage and tree rules can apply as well. Our Oakville homes page covers those rules in more detail. A bungalow you plan to keep can also be a quieter choice than a new build, with an established garden and mature trees already in place.
Is a bungalow a good choice for downsizing in Oakville?
For many people, yes. A bungalow keeps the bedrooms, kitchen and laundry on one floor, so you can skip the stairs day to day. Unlike a condo, it has no monthly fee and no board rules, but you still handle the roof, the snow and the yard. Before you buy, check a few things: steps up to the front door, a bathroom with a walk-in shower, and whether the laundry is on the main floor or in the basement. Many older bungalows put the laundry downstairs, and moving it up is a common first project. If you would rather hand off the upkeep, compare Oakville condos and condo townhouses before you decide.
What should I check before buying an older Oakville bungalow?
Many of Oakville’s bungalows are more than fifty years old, so the inspection matters. Ask the inspector to look at the electrical panel and wiring, the age of the roof and furnace, and signs of water in the basement. Old clay or cast-iron sewer pipes and big trees are a common mix in south Oakville, so a sewer camera scan is worth the cost. Ask whether the home ever had an oil tank, and whether it was removed with paperwork. Finished basements and additions should have permits, which the Town’s building records can confirm. Our home inspection guide explains what a standard inspection covers and what it leaves out.
How do I read bungalow prices in Oakville?
The live listing count and price range at the top of this page update with every MLS® sync. For sold prices, the Oakville detached home market report tracks the monthly trend. Keep in mind that bungalow prices in Oakville depend more on the lot than on the house. Two bungalows of the same size can sell far apart if one sits on a wide lot near the lake. So compare lot frontage and depth, not only square feet, when you size up a listing.
Oakville Home Market
As of October 2026, Oakville has 559 active detached homes for sale with a median list price of $1.9M, averaging 47 days on market. With 5.2 months of inventory at the recent three-month sales pace, this is currently a balanced market.

How we call the market
With 5.2 months of inventory at the recent three-month sales pace, this is currently a balanced market. From July to September 2026, 325 detached homes sold, 241 sellers took their home off the market without relisting and 368 came back at a lower price — a 57% sell-through. Over July to September 2026, homes sold for a median 91.2% of their first asking price, and the median sold price per square foot was down 5.4% from the same months a year earlier.
What we measure, over the last three full months
- Months of inventory: homes for sale today, divided by the average number sold per month. Fewer months means less choice for buyers.
- Sell-through: of the sellers whose listing ended, the share who actually sold. A seller who takes their home off the market and doesn’t list it again within 60 days counts as not selling. A home that comes off and goes back on (often a day later, at a lower price) counts as a price cut, not a seller giving up.
- Sold vs. first asking price: what homes sold for, compared with the price they were first listed at. We follow a home back through any relists, because a relist starts a new MLS® listing and hides the earlier, higher price.
- Price trend: the median sold price per square foot, compared with the same three months a year earlier.
How the call is made
- Seller’s market: under 3 months of inventory, at least 70% sell-through, and homes selling for 98% or more of their first asking price or prices up from a year ago.
- Buyer’s market: over 6 months of inventory, or under 50% sell-through (more sellers giving up than selling).
- Balanced market: everything in between, including low inventory where sellers are cutting prices, relisting or pulling their homes.
Based on MLS® listings from TRREB. Area totals only. We don’t show a call when fewer than 10 homes sold in those three months. Relists are matched by address, so a home relisted under a differently written address counts as taken off the market. Private sales and listings not on MLS® aren’t included. This is a general guide to the area, not an appraisal or advice about a specific home.
Based on properties for sale & sold — rentals not included. Figures are a monthly rollup covering October 1–21, 2026 (month to date), refreshed with each MLS® sync — shown as of October 21, 2026.

What is the difference between a bungalow, a raised bungalow and a bungaloft?
A bungalow has all its main rooms on one floor, usually with a basement below. A raised bungalow sits higher, so the basement has bigger windows and more light. A bungaloft adds a loft or bedroom above part of the main floor. This page includes all three.
Which Oakville neighbourhoods have the most bungalows?
Look in the older neighbourhoods: West, Southwest, Morrison, Old Oakville and Bronte in the south, and College Park, Central, Ford and Falgarwood in the middle of town. North Oakville has very few.
Can I tear down an Oakville bungalow and build a new house?
Often, but zoning limits the size of a new home in many older Oakville neighbourhoods, and heritage districts and the tree by-law can add permits. Get a planning review of the lot before your offer is firm.
Are there new bungalows being built in Oakville?
A few, but most new Oakville homes are two storeys. If you want new one-floor living, a condo apartment is often the easier way to get it.
Are Oakville bungalows good for downsizers?
They can be. One-floor living and no condo fee are the big draws. The trade-off is upkeep: you still look after the roof, the yard and the snow yourself.
