Property Overview & Key Characteristics

This well-maintained, one-storey home in Amber Trails offers a practical and comfortable living space. Built in 1998, its key appeal lies in its balance of established neighbourhood charm and modern updates, most notably a renovated basement that adds valuable finished space. With 1,299 sqft of living area on a generous 5,610 sqft lot, it provides room to breathe without being overwhelming. The attached garage and lack of pool point to a low-maintenance, family-oriented lifestyle.

Its appeal is grounded in solid value and a stable location. The home ranks highly for its lot size within the street and neighbourhood, suggesting more outdoor space than many comparable properties. While the living area is compact relative to some newer builds, the renovated basement effectively expands the usable footprint. This property would suit first-time buyers seeking a move-in-ready home with some updated finishes, downsizers looking for single-level living without sacrificing yard space, or pragmatic investors attracted by the area's consistency and the home's recent value history.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the age of this home (built 1998) compare to others in Amber Trails?
The home is among the older third on its street, as Amber Trails is a newer neighbourhood. However, it ranks in the top 10% for age within the broader Amber Trails area, indicating many surrounding homes are even newer. This positions it as a more established option in a developing community.

2. The living area seems modest. How does the renovated basement factor in?
While the main floor living area of 1,299 sqft is efficient, the renovated basement significantly adds to the functional space. This is a key feature, offering flexibility for a family room, home office, or additional bedrooms without increasing the home's main-floor footprint.

3. What does the assessed value history indicate?
The assessed value of $48,800K and its last sale price of $47,200K in July 2021 show stability. The modest increase aligns with typical market movement over that period and suggests the property hasn't been subject to dramatic speculative pricing swings.

4. Who would this property not be ideal for?
Buyers seeking a brand-new, custom-built home or those who prioritize a very large main-floor living area may find it less suitable. It's also not configured for those desiring amenities like a pool.

5. How does the lot size impact the property's value?
At 5,610 sqft, the lot is larger than 61% of those on the same street. In a newer neighbourhood where lots can be smaller, this is a distinct advantage, offering more privacy, play space, and landscaping potential, which contributes to long-term value.
