Wheatley real estate

Wheatley is a small Lake Erie town at the west end of the Chatham-Kent shoreline, near the Essex County line. It has a working harbour with commercial fishing boats, a small downtown and quiet streets. Buyers come for the lake, the slower pace and the small-town prices.

What I tell buyers about Wheatley

What I tell buyers about Wheatley is that it is a real lake town, not a resort. The fishing boats in the harbour are working boats. If that sounds like your kind of place, it is worth a visit.

Living in Wheatley

Wheatley's harbour and its fishing tugs give the town its character. Around it are older homes, bungalows and some newer builds, with farmland and greenhouses in the surrounding countryside. Leamington is just to the west and Tilbury is to the north.

Buying near the lake

If you are looking at a home close to Lake Erie, ask early about the shoreline, erosion and insurance. I make sure those questions are answered before an offer is firm. The feed on this site carries only part of the market here, so let me know what you want and I will check the rest. See also Erieau, further east along the shore.

Selling in Wheatley

Wheatley buyers often come from Windsor, Essex County and further away. A home evaluation is the first step, and my seller page explains the rest.
