Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1,062 sqft home, built in 1955 on a 5,065 sqft lot, presents a solid, above-average offering within its immediate Robertson neighborhood. Its primary appeal lies in its strong local standing rather than citywide metrics. The assessed value of $316k is notably above the street and neighborhood averages, suggesting the property is viewed favorably compared to its closest peers. The lot size is a significant asset, ranking in the top 10% on its street, offering more outdoor space than most nearby homes.

The home would suit practical buyers looking for a well-positioned property in an established area. It’s particularly suited for someone who values a larger lot for gardening, expansion, or simply more private outdoor space—a feature that is less common on this street. The data indicates a property that is a strong performer within its specific community context, making it a sensible choice for buyers prioritizing neighborhood value over a newer or larger home by city standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to recent sales?
It last sold between $250k-$300k in late 2019. Its current assessed value ($316k) is above that range and above local averages, indicating perceived growth in value relative to the area.

2. Is the house older or newer than others nearby?
Yes, it is newer than most. Built in 1955, it is significantly newer than the average home on its street (1934) and in the broader Robertson neighborhood (1949).

3. What does the lot size ranking mean for me?
Ranking in the top 10% on the street for lot size means you’re getting more land than 90% of your closest neighbors. This can provide more privacy, yard space, and potential for additions or landscaping.

4. The city-wide rankings seem average. Is that a concern?
Not necessarily. The city-wide averages include many newer suburban developments with larger homes. This property’s strength is its local standing—it outperforms most homes in its own established neighborhood, which is often more relevant for livability and value retention in the area.

5. How can I verify the exact past sale price?
The site provides sold price ranges publicly. Due to data licensing rules, exact MLS sale figures are not displayed online. You can request the exact historical sale price by emailing the site directly for a manual lookup.
