Clovelly Trails Lot Prices now available
Clovelly Trails Phase 3a lot prices are now up on the website for the public and purchasers to view. Clovelly Trails appears to be the most popular subdivision in St. John’s this year. 69 of their lots have had deposits on them for months. Some dating back to 2007.
The lot prices range from $69,900 to $94,900 (plus HST). A hefty jump since the last phase (base price was approx $54,900) but the demand is there to justify it.
Almost all subdivisions in St. John’s and Paradise have increased in prices since last year some as much as ten to fifteen percent.
