Key Characteristics & Appeal

This well-situated one-storey home in Garden City presents a solid opportunity, particularly for its generous lot size and established neighborhood setting. Built in 1963, the 1,482 sqft house sits on an 8,452 sqft lot—a standout feature that ranks in the top 4% of Garden City for land area. This offers significant outdoor space, rare for the area. The home features a renovated basement and an attached garage. Recent sales history shows steady appreciation, and its current assessed value ranks above average for both its immediate street and the broader Garden City community.

The primary appeal lies in its space and location. The lot size is a major asset for buyers seeking room for gardens, play, or future expansion. As a one-storey home with a renovated basement, it suits downsizers or those seeking single-level living, but also appeals to young families due to the yard space in a mature neighborhood. A thoughtful perspective is that while the living area is average for the city, the property’s value is anchored in its land, offering a balance of a manageable home footprint with exceptional outdoor potential. It’s ideally suited for practical buyers who prioritize lot size over a large interior, value established neighborhoods, and see potential in a home that has seen recent updates like the basement renovation.

Frequently Asked Questions
