Property Overview & Appeal

This 1910-built, two-and-a-half storey home in Varsity View offers a rare combination of historic character and generous space on a large, approximately 10,500 sqft lot. Its key characteristics include a substantial 2,632 sqft of living area, a finished basement, an in-ground pool, and a detached garage. The appeal lies in its significant above-average footprint for the area, providing room to grow and entertain, coupled with the established charm of a century-old home in a central, sought-after neighborhood.

The property is ideally suited for buyers who value space and location over modern finishes. It would appeal to a family seeking a "blank canvas" home with the room for future renovations and upgrades, or to those who appreciate the potential of a historic property and are prepared for the upkeep it entails. The expansive lot and pool also make it a strong fit for buyers prioritizing private outdoor living and entertainment space within the city.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does the age of the home mean for maintenance?
Built in 1910, this home is over a century old. While it offers classic character and solid construction, prospective buyers should budget for and anticipate maintenance consistent with its age, such as potential updates to plumbing, electrical, or the roof. A thorough pre-purchase inspection is essential.

2. How significant is the lot size?
At nearly a quarter-acre, the lot is exceptionally large for the Varsity View neighborhood, ranking in the top 5% citywide. This provides uncommon privacy, space for gardening, the existing pool, and future additions like a shed or expanded patio that wouldn't be possible on a standard city lot.

3. The home ranks very low for its age but very high for size. What does this indicate?
This contrast highlights the property's profile: it is one of the older homes in the area but also one of the largest in terms of living space. It suggests you are purchasing ample square footage and land, but within a structure that will require a thoughtful approach to preservation and modernization.

4. Is the pool a major consideration?
Yes. An in-ground pool is a significant feature that provides great enjoyment but also requires dedicated seasonal maintenance, safety considerations, and ongoing operating costs. It is a valuable asset for the right buyer but a responsibility to factor into your decision.

5. What is the realistic value proposition here?
The assessed value is positioned in the mid-range for the community. The value is derived primarily from the irreplaceable land size, the generous interior space, and the location—not from modern renovations. It represents an opportunity to invest in a property with solid fundamentals, where future improvements can directly add personalized equity.
