Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home presents a compelling opportunity in the Rossmere-B neighborhood. Its primary strength is its generous living space. At 1,488 square feet, it ranks in the top 5% for size both on its street and within the immediate area, offering significantly more room than local averages. This makes it a standout for buyers seeking space without moving to a newer, more sprawling suburb.

The assessed value of approximately $302,000 is consistently "around average" at every comparison level, suggesting a fair and stable market valuation. Interestingly, while the home's size is elite for the locale, its price point is not, which could indicate good value per square foot. The lot is a comfortable size for the area, and the home's 1951 build date is typical for the street.

This property would suit practical buyers who prioritize interior space and neighborhood value over a brand-new build. It’s ideal for a growing family needing room to expand within a mature, established community, or for someone looking to get more house for their budget by choosing a well-maintained, older character home over a smaller, newer construction.
