Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This 1940s one-storey home in Archwood presents a compact, efficient living space on a generously sized lot. Its primary appeal lies in the combination of a renovated basement and a detached garage, offering immediate utility and potential for expansion or workshop use. The lot size is a significant asset, ranking in the top 87% on its street, providing valuable outdoor space uncommon for the home's footprint.
The property would suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a manageable, single-level layout with modernized basics. It also appeals to value-oriented investors or hands-on buyers who see potential in the substantial lot and the ability to further customize the already updated basement. A less obvious perspective is its appeal to those prioritizing a lower annual property tax burden, as the assessed value is modest relative to the sold price, suggesting room for tax assessment to catch up to market value over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the house too small at 676 sq ft?
While the main living area is compact, the renovated basement effectively doubles the usable space, making it more functional than the square footage suggests. It's a layout that encourages efficient living.
2. How does the recent sale price compare to the assessed value?
The home sold for $31,300k in late 2024, which is notably higher than its $25.30k assessed value. This is common and indicates the market valued the home's condition, lot size, and updates beyond the city's assessment for tax purposes.
3. What does the lot size mean for me?
At 3,299 sq ft, the lot is well above average for the area. This provides ample yard space, better privacy from neighbours, and long-term potential for additions, a large garden, or outdoor living areas.
4. The home is 86 years old. What should I be concerned about?
While the renovated basement is a plus, a professional inspection is crucial to review the core structure, foundation, roof, and major systems (plumbing, electrical) for an older home. The detached garage is also likely original.
5. How does this location rank for investment or resale?
The rankings show a mix: the lot size and recent sale price rank highly in the neighbourhood and city, suggesting strong underlying value. The living area size is smaller than most, which may appeal to a specific buyer segment when reselling.
