Key Characteristics & Appeal

This one-and-a-half storey home in Inkster-Faraday is a study in contrasts, offering a unique value proposition. Built in 1956, it is a notably newer construction compared to most homes on its street and in the immediate neighbourhood, which typically date to the 1920s. This suggests potentially fewer concerns with aging infrastructure common in century-old homes. With 945 sqft of living space, the home is compact and efficient, sitting below the city average but aligned with the scale of many area homes.

Its primary appeal lies in its value and lot size. The assessed value is strong for the local context, ranking above average for both the street and neighbourhood, indicating good relative worth. The 4,202 sqft lot is generous for the area, offering above-average outdoor space for a home of this type. Key features include a detached garage and a basement (not renovated), providing storage and workshop potential. This property would suit a first-time buyer, an investor, or a downsizer seeking a manageable, lower-maintenance home with a solid lot in an established neighbourhood, without the premium price of a fully updated property.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the home in move-in condition?
The listing notes the basement is "not renovated," suggesting the home may be suited for someone comfortable with a property that has maintenance or update potential. The newer build year (1956) is a positive factor for core systems.

2. How does the value compare to recent sales?
Public data shows a sale in late 2020 in the $18.5k-$21.5k range, with the current assessed value at $22.9k. For an exact historical sold price, you can request details via email from the listing source.

3. What does the "above average" assessed value ranking mean for the area?
It indicates that, compared to similar homes on this street and in Inkster-Faraday, this property holds a higher assessed value. This can reflect its newer construction, lot size, or overall condition relative to its peers.

4. What are the implications of the home's smaller living area?
At 945 sqft, the living space is efficient. This typically translates to lower utility costs and less upkeep, but may require creative use of space or an openness to using the basement for additional storage or living area after renovation.

5. Why is the build year considered a standout feature?
In a neighbourhood where most comparable homes were built around 1920-1930, a 1956 build date is a significant advantage. It likely means more modern construction materials, electrical wiring, and plumbing foundations than many surrounding properties.
