Buyer's guide: Torbay
Torbay is a coastal town on Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula, just north of St. John's, with a mix of building land, houses and a few apartments. Our 55 listings have a median asking price of €137,842. The unusually large share of plots, 35 of 55, makes it a place to build, not just to buy.

Land-heavy market
35 listings are land, 15 houses and 5 apartments. Among homes, 10 have three bedrooms, 5 five or more, 4 four and 1 two. Land prices sit at the low end, while houses push up the upper quartile. See land in Canada and houses.
Because so many listings are land, the average price tells you less than usual. Serviced lots near the road network cost more than raw acreage. Check subdivision approvals, drainage and whether the lot has road frontage, and ask about the cost of bringing in water and sewer.

Coastal living
Torbay has cliffs, coves and walking trails, such as the Flat Rock and Pouch Cove coast, and is a short drive from St. John's airport and downtown. Weather can be foggy, windy and snowy. Building requires checking septic, well and zoning rules. Coastal erosion near cliff-top lots matters.
Buyers are St. John's commuters, retirees and returning Newfoundlanders.
Foreign buyer rules
The federal ban on foreign purchases of residential property runs to 1 January 2027, and Torbay lies in the St. John's metropolitan area, so it may be covered. Newfoundland and Labrador charges a registration fee rather than an Ontario-style land transfer tax. Confirm with a local lawyer. See Canada buying guide and financing.
Nearby places
St. John's, Paradise, Conception Bay South and Bay Roberts are on the same peninsula. See Canada.
