Property Summary: 17 West Lake Crescent

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1,156 sqft bungalow, built in 1978 on a 5,039 sqft lot, presents a compelling opportunity defined by its strong position within its immediate surroundings. Its primary appeal lies in offering above-average space and value on a desirable street. The home ranks in the top 10% of West Lake Crescent for both living area and lot size, meaning you get more house and more land than most of your direct neighbors. With an assessed value also above the street average, it signals a solid level of finish and investment for the location.

This property would suit practical buyers looking for a well-established, quiet street in Waverley Heights. It’s ideal for those who prioritize interior and yard space over a brand-new build, and who appreciate a home that stands out positively on its own block. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home is average compared to the wider city, its standout metrics on its specific street suggest a premium, settled feel within a micro-community—a potential hedge against wider neighborhood fluctuations. It suits someone who values a strong immediate setting over simply checking a broader neighborhood box.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is this home a good value compared to others on the street?
Yes. The assessed value is ranked 3rd out of 46 on West Lake Crescent (top 7%), indicating it is considered more valuable than most comparable homes directly around it.

2. How does the lot size compare?
The 5,039 sqft lot is substantially larger than the street average of 3,597 sqft, placing it in the top 9% on the crescent. This is a key advantage, offering more outdoor space than most neighboring properties.

3. Is the living space larger or smaller than typical?
The living area is a key feature. At 1,156 sqft, it is significantly larger than the street average (1,040 sqft), ranking 2nd out of 46 homes. You are getting more interior space than nearly all direct neighbors.

4. How does it fit within the broader Waverley Heights neighborhood?
Within the wider neighborhood, the home is around or slightly below average for size and value. This suggests it offers a more accessible entry point into the Waverley Heights area while still benefiting from a prime position on its own esteemed street.

5. What does the year built tell us?
Built in 1978, it is typical for its street but is actually newer than many homes in the broader neighborhood and city. This suggests well-established infrastructure and mature landscaping, without some of the potential maintenance issues of much older inventory.
