If you feel your condo isn’t big enough for you, at least be thankful you don’t live in one of the country’s smallest houses.
Real estate portal Point2 Homes compiled the listings of the smallest houses currently on sale in Canada. The smallest house is located in Medicine Hat, Alberta and is just short of 300 square feet. Five of the top 10 properties are in Saskatchewan, but most of the 30 listed are in Ontario.
How do they compare to other properties within the country? Well, the tiniest house is roughly seven times smaller than the average home in Canada, which had the third largest houses in the world according to PwC. In fact, the top five properties are less than half the size of the average condo unit in the Greater Toronto Area, which was 802 square feet in February.
