Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1,040 sqft bungalow, built in 1960, presents a solid, middle-of-the-road offering in the Pulberry neighborhood. Its primary appeal lies in its balance and potential. The home sits on a 5,738 sqft lot, which is notably larger than most on Barrington Avenue, offering valuable outdoor space for gardening, play, or expansion—a key advantage not always found in homes of this vintage. With an assessed value of $367k, it is priced very close to the street average, suggesting it is fairly positioned within its immediate context rather than being an outlier.

The home would suit practical, value-conscious buyers—perhaps first-time homeowners or downsizers—who see potential in a well-located property. It’s for someone who appreciates having a lot size that stands out on the street and isn’t deterred by a home that may require updates common for its age. The recent sale in early 2024 indicates market activity and could appeal to buyers looking for a property with a fresh transaction history.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s size compare to others in the area?
At 1,040 sqft, the living area is slightly below the Pulberry neighborhood average but is very typical for Barrington Avenue itself. It offers a manageable footprint.

2. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the likely selling price?
The assessed value ($367k) is a municipal valuation for tax purposes. The home sold for between $350k-$400k in early 2024, which provides a more current market benchmark to consider alongside the assessment.

3. What is the significance of the lot size being "above average" for the street?
The lot of 5,738 sqft is larger than many neighbors' properties. This could provide more privacy, yard space, and future potential (like an addition or garage) compared to other homes on the block.

4. Are there comparable recent sales nearby to gauge value?
The listing references a nearby property at 31 Weaver Bay (same year built, similar size and assessed value) that was noted as "trending," which can be a useful point of comparison. Specific sold data for exact comparables requires a manual request via the site.

5. What should I consider about a home built in 1960?
While the construction year is typical for the street, a home of this age likely has original or aging core components. A thorough inspection of the roof, wiring, plumbing, windows, and insulation is advisable to understand any needed investments.
