Property Overview & Key Characteristics

This well-maintained bi-level home at 20 Novara Drive in Amber Trails offers a practical and comfortable living space. Built in 1999, it sits on a generous 5,422 sqft lot, providing ample outdoor space that ranks well above average for its street. The home features 1,369 sqft of living area, an attached garage, and a key highlight: a renovated basement that adds significant functional space. While the home itself is not the newest in the established neighbourhood, its recent basement renovation modernizes a major portion of the living area.

The appeal lies in its balance of established community charm and tangible updates. The renovated basement is a major value-add, offering flexibility for a recreation room, home office, or additional bedrooms. Its lot size is a standout feature for the street, promising good privacy and yard potential. The property would suit first-time buyers or young families looking for a move-in ready home with modernized living space in a mature neighbourhood, as well as practical buyers who prioritize usable square footage and outdoor space over having a brand-new build. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home's assessed value is strong for the area, its recent 2023 sale price suggests it may represent solid value within the Amber Trails community.
