Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home in Dakota Crossing is a well-sized, established property that stands out for its above-average space and recent updates. Built in 1994, the home offers 1,952 sqft of living area, placing it comfortably in the top 10-16% for size within both the immediate street and the wider neighbourhood. A key feature is the renovated basement, adding modern, functional living space. The lot is a standard suburban size at just over 5,700 sqft.

The appeal lies in its proven, roomy layout within a mature community. The data suggests it's a property that has been maintained and improved, with an assessed value that ranks consistently higher than average for its area. It’s not the newest or largest lot on the block, but it represents a solid, updated home in a settled area.

This home would suit practical buyers looking for move-in-ready space without the premium of a brand-new build. It’s ideal for a growing family needing the room a two-storey provides, or for anyone who values a renovated lower level for a rec room, home office, or suite potential. It’s a fit for those who prioritize interior space and modern finishes over a massive yard or a brand-new construction.


Frequently Asked Questions

How does this home compare to others in Dakota Crossing?
The home ranks above average in key metrics for the neighbourhood, particularly in living area (top 16%) and assessed value (top 19%). It offers more interior space than the typical Dakota Crossing home.

What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the finishes or layout. This is a key detail to clarify with the listing agent to understand the quality and scope of the updates.

Is the assessed value a good indicator of the likely sale price?
The assessed value is $54.80k, but this is for municipal tax purposes and is not a market valuation. A more relevant indicator is the 2021 sale price of $530k for this property and the current market activity of comparable homes.

Are there any notable features not mentioned in the stats?
The data highlights size, value, and the basement renovation. It does not mention the condition of major systems (roof, HVAC), the main floor layout, number of bathrooms, or the state of the yard—all important points for further inquiry.

How does the lack of a garage impact convenience and value?
The home has no garage, which is a consideration for vehicle storage, workshop space, and winter convenience. This is common for many homes of this era and area, but buyers should assess their needs for on-site parking and storage solutions.
