Citadel houses

Houses for sale in Citadel, Port Coquitlam

Citadel houses are the largest in Port Coquitlam by median floor area. The stock was built mostly in the early 1990s on smaller lots than Glenwood or Mary Hill, but the houses themselves are multi-level family homes, many with full finished basements and attached double garages.

The neighbourhood's setting on a hill above the Fraser River gives some homes south-facing views, and the park access along the western edge means some lots back directly onto Colony Farm's trail network.

What to check on a large Citadel house

The basement suite permit history
About 42% of Citadel houses listed here describe a suite, and most of the neighbourhood's houses were built around 1992 to 1993 — right at the boundary where Port Coquitlam requires a development permit in addition to a building permit for a basement suite. Ask the seller for both, and verify them on PoCoMAP with the property address. An unpermitted suite in a house of this size means the income is not bankable and the work may need to be done twice.
The roof and the building envelope
A 1990s house in the Lower Mainland may have gone through a re-roofing and possibly a building-envelope assessment if it had any moisture problems. Ask when the roof was last replaced and whether there has been any work on the building envelope. A house this size can cost $80,000 to $120,000 to re-roof, and that affects the offer you write today.
The slope and the views
Some Citadel lots slope toward the south, giving views that are real but also creating drainage considerations. Walk the full lot perimeter, look at where water drains from the roof and the paved surfaces, and look at the retaining walls from both above and below. Ask the inspector to report on every wall, not just the one visible from the driveway.
The school catchment confirmed
Castle Park Elementary and Citadel Middle School are walking distance from most addresses here, but SD43 assigns catchments by address, and boundaries can shift. Confirm the catchment for the specific address using SD43's school locator before you use school proximity as a price justification.
