Best Neighbourhoods for Bungalows in Barrie (2026)

Barrie has a lot of bungalows. On October 27, 2026, there were 177 for sale across 26 different MLS® communities. That's a lot of choice, and it raises the big question: where should you start looking?

This guide doesn't pick favourites. It ranks Barrie's neighbourhoods by the numbers in the MLS® system, so you can see which ones fit your budget and your must-haves.

How we ranked them

We counted every bungalow for sale in the City of Barrie (Bungalow, Raised Bungalow and Bungaloft), not counting homes already sold with conditions, and every one that sold from October 1 to 27, 2026. A neighbourhood makes this list if it wins on at least one of these:

  • Most choice: the most bungalows for sale right now.
  • Best value: the lowest middle (median) asking price, among neighbourhoods with 5 or more for sale.
  • Most double garages: the most freehold listings with room for two cars or more.
  • Quickest sales: the most bungalows sold this month compared with how many are for sale.
  • Most newer homes: the most listed as 30 years old or less, of the listings that give an age.

Neighbourhood names are the MLS® community names.

The short version

  • 177 bungalows are for sale in Barrie, with a median asking price of $724,900.
  • 31 sold from October 1 to 27, 2026, at a median price of $650,000.
  • Holly has the most choice and the most double garages.
  • Cundles East has the lowest median asking price, $612,500.
  • Painswick South and Bayshore have the most newer bungalows.
  • Sunnidale had the busiest month: 5 sold, with 7 for sale now.

What this means if you're looking in Barrie

Lower prices and double garages rarely come together. The neighbourhoods with the lowest prices (Cundles East, Wellington, Grove East) have few double garages. The ones with the most double garages (Holly, Bayshore, Painswick South) have median prices of $758,800 or more.

Newer bungalows sit in a few places. Of the 105 listings across Barrie that give an age, 47 are 30 years old or less, and 23 of those 47 are in Painswick South, Bayshore and Holly.

Barrie means the City of Barrie here. Innisfil, Springwater and Oro-Medonte are separate municipalities and are not counted.

If your budget is under $600,000, see the Barrie bungalows under $600K map. Between $600,000 and $800,000, where most Barrie bungalows sit, try the Barrie bungalows $600K to $800K map. For price bands and what sold across the whole city, read our Barrie bungalow guide for October 2026.
