131 Traill Avenue – Property Summary

Key Characteristics and Buyer Profile

This 1,176 sqft home, built in 1954, sits on a 5,395 sqft lot in Silver Heights. Its most distinctive feature is the year built: it’s the oldest house on its street (ranked #1 out of 26) by a narrow margin, which may appeal to buyers who prioritize established construction over newer builds. The living area is around average for its street, neighbourhood, and city, so it’s not unusually small or large. Where the property stands out is in its assessed value ($260,000), which is the lowest on its street and well below neighbourhood and city averages. This is partly explained by the smaller-than-average land area (5,395 sqft vs. 5,764 sqft on the street) and the age of the home, but it also suggests potential upside if renovations or market shifts close that gap.

The appeal here is straightforward: it’s a low-entry-price property in a neighbourhood where comparable homes are valued higher. That makes it a natural fit for first-time buyers looking to get into Silver Heights without paying top dollar, or for investors seeking a value-add opportunity—someone who can renovate or redevelop (subject to zoning) could see significant equity growth. The smaller lot and older home might deter buyers who want move-in-ready or more outdoor space, but for those comfortable with a project, the below-market assessed value is the main draw. It’s not a flashy property, but it offers a practical entry point with clear comparables nearby.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is the assessed value so much lower than other homes on the street?
The value is driven by a combination of the home’s age (1954) and its smaller land area (5,395 sqft vs. the street average of 5,764 sqft). While age alone doesn’t always lower value, in this case it coincides with a lot that’s below average for the area. The home’s living area is also slightly smaller than the street average, compounding the effect. That said, the gap is notable—$56,500 below the street average—so it’s worth investigating the home’s condition and recent sales of similar properties to see if the assessment is conservative or reflects deferred maintenance.

2. Is this property in a desirable neighbourhood?
Silver Heights ranks in the top 41% city-wide for living area, which suggests the area is established with reasonably sized homes. The assessed values in the neighbourhood are above the city median ($324,600 vs. $390,100 city-wide), but this home sits well below both. Desirability depends on what you’re after: it’s a mid-tier neighbourhood, not a luxury pocket, but it offers proximity to amenities and a stable housing stock. The fact that this is the lowest-valued home on the street could mean you’re buying into a rising area at a discount, or that the home itself has specific drawbacks—only an in-person visit will clarify.

3. What does the “top 4%” rank for year built actually mean?
It means this home is one of the oldest on its street—ranked #1 out of 26. In the context of rankings, older is ranked higher (since the system ranks by year, with newer being better, the oldest gets the highest rank). So “top 4%” here is a quirk of the data: it signals the home is notably older than its neighbours, not that it’s more desirable. For a buyer interested in character or solid older construction, this could be a plus; for someone worried about maintenance, it’s a heads-up.

4. How does the land area compare to other properties in Silver Heights?
It’s below average. The home ranks in the bottom 12% for land area in the neighbourhood, with 5,395 sqft versus the neighbourhood average of 6,472 sqft. That’s a meaningful difference—about 1,077 sqft less, or roughly a quarter of a standard lot. If you’re looking for a spacious yard or room for an addition, this property may feel tight compared to nearby homes. For those who prefer lower-maintenance outdoor space, it could be a reasonable fit.

5. Could this property be a good renovation project?
Potentially, based on the value gap. The assessed value is well below both the street and neighbourhood averages, so any increase in living space, modernisation, or even cosmetic updates could push the value closer to those benchmarks. The smaller lot limits what you can do with an extension, so improvements would likely focus on the interior and curb appeal. The fact that it’s one of the oldest homes on the street also means it may have original features worth restoring, but it also means systems (roof, plumbing, electrical) should be inspected carefully. It’s not a guaranteed flip, but the low entry price gives you room to work.
