Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a compact, one-storey home in the Earl Grey neighbourhood, built in 1925. With 766 sqft of living space, it is notably smaller than most comparable homes in the area and citywide, positioning it as a more manageable property. Its key updated feature is a renovated basement, adding functional space. The home sits on a 3,780 sqft lot, which is above average for Earl Grey, offering valuable outdoor space relative to many neighbouring properties. There is no garage or pool.

The primary appeal lies in its efficiency and lot size. It suits first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a lower-maintenance home in a central neighbourhood without a large interior to manage. The above-average lot for the area presents a tangible value point, offering potential for gardening, outdoor living, or future expansion where feasible. The renovated basement adds immediate utility. Its assessed value is consistently around the average for its immediate vicinity, suggesting it is priced in line with the local market rather than standing out as exceptionally high or low.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the small living area a concern?
While the 766 sqft home is below average in size, the renovated basement effectively expands the usable living space. This layout can be efficient for individuals, couples, or those comfortable with compact living.

2. What does the lot size mean for me?
At 3,780 sqft, the lot is larger than many in Earl Grey. This is a key asset, providing more private outdoor space than typical for the neighbourhood, which is valuable for recreation, pets, or gardening.

3. How does the assessed value compare?
The home’s assessed value is around the average for Fleet Avenue and the Earl Grey area. This indicates it is not over-assessed relative to its immediate peers, providing a stable baseline for market comparison.

4. The home is 101 years old. What should I consider?
While the core structure is century-old, the renovated basement suggests some modernization. A thorough inspection is recommended to understand the condition of major vintage home systems (plumbing, electrical, foundation) alongside the recent updates.

5. Who would this property not suit?
It may not be ideal for families requiring multiple bedrooms or abundant indoor space, or for buyers who prioritize features like a garage or a move-in-ready, large modern layout. Its strength is efficient living on a good-sized lot.
