Property Overview: 39 Desjardins Drive, Island Lakes

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home in Island Lakes is a solid, well-proportioned property that offers above-average space and land for the city. Built in 1989, it presents a practical opportunity without the premium of a brand-new build. Its key appeal lies in its generous 6,676 sqft lot, which ranks in the top 21% on its own street and offers more outdoor space than many comparable properties. With 1,636 sqft of living area, the home provides ample room for a family and sits above the city-wide average.

The home suits buyers looking for a established, move-in-ready property in a mature neighbourhood, where the value is in the space and location rather than high-end finishes. It’s particularly well-suited for those who prioritize a larger yard for children, gardening, or future expansion over a recently renovated interior. The recent sale history suggests stable value, and its metrics indicate you’re acquiring a property that stands out in terms of land size within its immediate community—a less obvious but valuable asset.

Frequently Asked Questions

3. What is the neighbourhood like?

5. How does the assessed value relate to the likely selling price?
The assessed value (for municipal tax purposes) is one factor, but market conditions, property condition, and buyer demand ultimately determine the sale price. This home’s assessed value is around average for its neighbourhood but above average city-wide.
