Property Overview: 679 Lansdowne Avenue

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This one-storey home on Lansdowne Avenue is defined by its generous, above-average lot size—a standout feature in the Inkster-Faraday neighbourhood. While the living space (796 sq ft) is modest and below area averages, the property includes a renovated basement and a detached garage. Built in 1948, the home is older than many in the city but is typical for its immediate street. Its assessed value is notably strong for the local area, suggesting it is well-regarded within its specific market context.

The primary appeal lies in its land. The lot of over 5,800 sq ft is significantly larger than most in the neighbourhood, offering rare potential for expansion, gardening, or outdoor living in this part of the city. This makes it an opportunity for buyers who value space and possibility over immediate square footage. It would suit a practical first-time buyer comfortable with a smaller, character home, or an investor looking for a property with a strong land-to-building ratio. The renovated basement adds functional living space, making the overall package more manageable for someone not wanting a full-scale renovation project.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the living space too small?
At 796 sq ft, the main floor living area is compact. However, the renovated basement effectively adds usable space, making the total functional area more comfortable for a small household or a couple.

2. Why is the assessed value higher than many neighbours?
The assessment likely reflects the combination of the renovated basement, the detached garage, and, crucially, the premium lot size. In neighbourhoods with smaller standard lots, a property with this much land often carries a value advantage.

3. What can I do with such a large lot?
Beyond a spacious yard, the lot size presents future opportunities that are rare in the area, such as adding a large deck, a workshop, or even exploring the potential for an addition (subject to zoning and permit approvals).

4. How does the age of the home affect things?
Built in 1948, the home will have the character and potential quirks of its era. Buyers should prioritize a thorough inspection to understand the condition of major aging components like the roof, plumbing, and electrical systems.

5. Are the recent sale prices for this home accurate?
The listed price ranges are estimates based on public data. For precise historical sale figures to inform your offer, you must request the exact sold price history via email from the listing service.
