The Eastman real estate market in numbers

Eastman’s market is small and steady: 56 residential sales in 12 months, 109 new listings (-7%) and about forty properties for sale at any time. In a market this size, a single unusual sale can move the median. That is why a serious evaluation relies on carefully chosen comparables: same area, same type of lot, same water access.

Sources: QPAREB through the Centris system, statistics by municipality, Eastman, last four quarters ending Q3 2026, consulted October 20, 2026; Statistics Canada, 2021 Census. These statistics describe the market as a whole and do not reflect the value of any specific property.

What buyers look for in Eastman

Eastman is a village at the foot of Mont Orford, surrounded by lakes, about 1 h 30 from Montreal via Highway 10 and about 15 minutes from Magog. Its population grew by almost 24% between 2016 and 2021: families and workers from the Montreal area have settled there for good, alongside cottage owners.

• Village homes: walking distance to Val-de-Grâce elementary school, cafés, the library and the events of this “literary village”, including Les Correspondances d’Eastman.
• Waterfront and lake access: Lac d’Argent, Lake Orford, Lac Parker and Lake Stukely. The shoreline, the dock, access rights and the septic system are among buyers’ first questions.
• Cottages and large wooded lots: privacy, nature, and access to the Montagnarde trail and the Missisquoi Nord trails.
• Recent construction: energy efficiency, warranties and little work to plan for.

BEAU also markets the Pic de l’Ours land project in Eastman. More about the village: Living in Eastman.
