Detached Homes for Sale in Burlington
Detached homes led Burlington's April market with 122 sales generating $165,884,550 in total volume. The average price of $1,359,709 sits well above the median of $1,223,000 — a reminder that luxury waterfront and Roseland estate sales pull the average up. For most buyers, the $1.2M median is the more realistic benchmark. With 259 new listings and 325 active, families have genuine options to explore across Burlington's established neighbourhoods from Alton Village to Shoreacres.
Semi-Detached Homes for Sale in Burlington
Semi-detached is a rare and fast-moving segment in Burlington. Just 16 sales were recorded in April with $14,284,000 in volume at an average of $892,750 (median: $885,000). Only 18 new listings entered the market and a mere 19 remained active — the tightest supply of any segment in the city. The near-identical average and median confirms consistent, predictable pricing. Buyers eyeing semi-detached in Burlington need to be pre-approved and ready to move immediately.
Townhomes for Sale in Burlington
Burlington townhomes recorded 25 sales at an average of $858,220 with $21,455,500 in total volume. The median of $850,000 sits close to the average — a sign of stable, uniform pricing across the segment. With 43 new listings and only 47 active, supply is lean here too. For buyers who want more space than a condo and more value than a detached, Burlington townhomes at the $850K median offer one of the stronger propositions along the Halton lakeshore corridor.
Condos for Sale in Burlington
Condos were Burlington's most active and accessible segment with 46 sales — the highest count of any property type after detached — generating $28,634,800 in volume. The average of $622,496 offers a meaningful entry point into Burlington's market, though the median of $497,500 tells a more nuanced story — a cluster of higher-end units is lifting the average considerably. With 122 new listings and 231 active, buyers here have the strongest negotiating position in Burlington's entire market. Downsizers, first-time buyers, and investors should be paying close attention.
Homes for Rent in Burlington
With a median home price of $917,500 across all property types, renting in Burlington while you plan your purchase is a smart, flexible approach. Burlington's rental market spans everything from downtown lakefront suites to suburban family homes in Millcroft and Headon Forest — giving you time to settle into the city, understand the neighbourhoods, and buy with confidence rather than urgency.
Conclusion
Burlington's April 2026 market is performing with quiet confidence. A just-over-$1M average price for a lakeside city with excellent schools, GO Transit, and a thriving downtown core represents real value in the broader GTA context. Condos offer the most buyer leverage with 231 active listings; semi-detached and townhomes reward speed and preparation; detached gives families solid inventory to work through. As always, trust the median over the average when setting your budget.
