Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1977-built home in River East presents a compelling case based on its standout lot size and strong positioning within its immediate locale. With 1,321 sqft of living space, the house itself is above average for its street but aligns with typical city and neighborhood dimensions. The true differentiator is the land: at approximately 9,450 sqft, the lot is exceptionally large, ranking in the top 3% on its street and the top 7% city-wide. This offers rare potential for expansion, gardening, or outdoor recreation in a mature setting.

The home’s assessed value of $419k is notably above the street average, reflecting its premium lot and recent sale history. It last sold in late 2023 for an estimated $450k-$500k, a transaction that placed it in the top 4% of street sales, indicating strong buyer demand for this specific property.

This home would suit buyers who prioritize land over sheer interior size—think families seeking space for children or pets, or those with long-term renovation plans. It’s also a solid option for value-conscious buyers looking in River East, as it offers more property than most nearby homes without a premium that places it in the highest city-wide tiers. The data suggests you’re paying primarily for the exceptional lot and a well-maintained, average-sized house in a stable neighborhood.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the lot size compare to a typical new build?
This lot of 9,452 sqft is substantially larger than those found in most modern suburban developments, where lots are often between 4,000-6,000 sqft. This is a key feature of many older neighborhoods.

2. The assessed value seems high for the street. Why?
The assessed value of $419k ranks in the top 11% for Rothesay Street, well above the $306k street average. This is largely driven by the property’s elite-sized lot and its recent sale price, which assessors use as a key data point.

3. What does the recent sale history tell us?
The home sold in October 2023 for an estimated $450k-$500k. This followed a previous sale in August 2020 for $350k-$400k. The trajectory suggests significant market appreciation over that period and strong buyer competition for this property specifically.

4. Is the living space sufficient for a growing family?
At 1,321 sqft, the living area is practical but not expansive. It is above the street average (1,133 sqft) but slightly below the city average. The appeal for a family lies in the balance of adequate indoor space with exceptional outdoor space.

5. How can I verify the exact past sale prices?
The provided figures are estimates based on public data. Due to industry regulations, exact MLS sale prices are not displayed here. You can request the precise transaction history by emailing the site directly for a manual lookup.
