Rural Highway 17 living near Sault Ste. Marie
Prince Townhsip offers low-density living with water and forested settings outside Sault Ste. Marie.
This is a spread-out, rural area where the appeal is space, privacy, and access to the outdoors, often tied to waterfront or woodlot ownership. It is not an urban, walkable environment, and it does not trade on having a concentrated main street of services across the whole area.
Being situated along Highway 17 gives the area a clear north-of-the-city orientation while keeping it connected to the Sault Ste. Marie orbit.
A meaningful part of the local housing identity is cottages and four-season waterfront residences, which shapes what many people come here specifically to own.
Alongside shoreline properties, the area is also characterized by woodlot ownership, appealing to buyers who want a rural setting as part of the property itself.
With places like Gros Cap Conservation Area and the Prince Township Outdoor Rink among the named recreation options nearby, the area reads as lifestyle-forward rather than amenity-dense.
Housing in Prince Townhsip is dominated by detached homes, including cottages and four-season waterfront residences, along with a smaller presence of secondary suites. Because the area sees fewer transactions, homes tend to be evaluated more on their individual attributes than on a tight set of standardized comparables.
A typical home here is a detached property, often aligned to either a waterfront or woodlot setting.
Weekends in the area commonly point outward to simple, place-based recreation: outdoor time at Gros Cap Conservation Area, seasonal use of the Prince Township Outdoor Rink, and time spent on or near the property itself. The lifestyle reads as quieter and more self-directed than amenity-hopping.
Selling in Prince Township is about helping buyers understand a property’s specific setting and use-case, since homes here are less interchangeable than in more urban areas. With fewer comparable sales, clear, concrete information about the home and how it lives day-to-day carries more weight than broad claims.
Make the setting easy to picture: whether the property is waterfront, woodlot, or more open, and how it relates to Highway 17 for everyday comings and goings. In a rural, low-density area, buyers often filter first by setting before they compare finishes.
Many listings in the area lean toward cottages and four-season waterfront residences alongside detached homes, so show whether the home is positioned for year-round living or more seasonal use. Practical details that demonstrate comfort and usability matter as much as cosmetic updates.
Because the market is thinly traded, buyers may not see many directly comparable recent sales, and pricing tends to be more property-specific than in Sault Ste. Marie. Marketing works better when it highlights what is distinct and verifiable about this home rather than leaning on averages.
If the home has a secondary suite or clear potential for one, present it plainly and separately from the main living space so buyers can understand the layout. In a community with a limited number of secondary suites, clarity on how spaces function can widen the pool of motivated buyers.
Prince Townhsip offers rural, low-density living with a housing mix centered on detached homes, including cottages and four-season waterfront residences, in the Sault Ste. Marie orbit along Highway 17. Its defining feature is that properties can be highly specific—setting and use case can matter as much as the building itself. It’s a better match for people prioritizing space, privacy, and an outdoors-oriented setting than for anyone prioritizing walkability or a dense spread of amenities across the whole area.
This description is compiled from the figures above and from published sources. It is not a statistic.
Prince Township’s current for-sale market is very limited, with just 7 active listings and a median asking price of $844,900 (about $440 per sq ft on average), reflecting a mix of housing types and lot sizes across the municipality—from more rural properties to pockets with denser residential options. With listings averaging 86 days on market so far, buyers may have some room to negotiate or take time comparing areas, while investors should read the pace as selective demand where pricing and property attributes matter more than broad momentum.
